    People from all over the state were only aloud to buy the first year they did it. I'm pretty sure they changed it to you having to be on eldora grounds to buy a 50/50

      They want have many races paying 247 dollars to win that's like the state I live in they said restaurants could open at half capacity I noticed a few did an most didn't an some of the owners that didn't open said they couldn't make any money at 50 percent same way with race tracks if you can't make any money why bother.

        You do have to be on Eldora Property to buy a 50/50 ticket now.

          Politicians have no business shutting down business. PERIOD!!! GOVERNMENT RUN COUNTRY IS ON TAP after this debacle. Especially if Dems get in power.. BTW the least the Politicians should do is lose their salaries while they are making people lose theirs.

            TS FAN, for some reason I’ve assumed that you are from Ohio. If so, what tracks to you plan on attending once they are open? Ones close to you? Or ones that you’d have to travel a distance to?

              I am a big race fan, but if I win $50K in the fifty fifty drawing, it's all mine!!! The Big E has made many millions off of the Dream and World 100, enough to make a little instead of a lot for once.

                I think alot of people complained about the 50/50. Someone who has zero interest in the event could buy tickets from hundreds of miles away and win. We already have multiple types of lottery's
                2020 race count:
                1/2 of an event

                    That's right, and an automatic 20% is kept for your tax.

                      CW would you rather have them come after you for there share ? No thank you, pay them up front and enjoy the rest I say. I lay down 20 bucks for a chance at 80k any time.

                        $80,489 for the winners share -last year at the World 100. I am glad they revised the policy of having to be on the property to purchase a ticket. There are probably a few folks who drive there just to buy a ticket- but the majority are racing people like us!

                          You don't have to worry, they will keep the 20% and hand you the 80%. lol

                            I would like to see anybody who purchased the pay for view has a opportunity to purchase a 50/50 ticket. And half of the winings would go to the drivers purse. As well as half of the money made of the ppv. Last night the ppv at I-55 had people watching from 11 different contanents. That would be enough revanew to pay for the race with limited fans or no fans at all. Lol...
