horse racing is awesome. I cant understand why more people arent into it.
I think if they bring back match races it would get more people interested.

Short attention spans, you have to study a bit to understand wtf is going on, so the average idiot would rather pull the handle on a slot machine.
Plus the industry has done a shitty job of marketing over many years. In the fifties, racing was the #1 spectator sport in America. The fledgling television networks wanted to put it on weekly TV, but the dumbasses that controlled racing thought it would hurt on-track attendance. TV turned to football instead, and you know the rest.
