Also...have to remember that the Stampede board owns and runs all these things so they dont necessarily have to do anything with this stuff unless there in an incentive too.
Which means its a dead discussion. Any idea of removing the track and gutting the main attraction of the stampede would be laughed at.

True...but it doesnt preclude adding to it so it can host other events.

If there is one thing that drives the CS...its making more money.

All of which can work in a stadium equally as well as a grandstand.

But not horse racing really.
