If you dont like the way PPMS does it, then dont go. If you come, then dont bitch. It is up to the track owners to announce the winnings, winner..etc. There are alot of crazy people in the world these days. Maybe, just a thought, but maybe-if someone knows that you just won a grand on a 50/50 drawing, whos to say they arent looking for a quick way to make a grand and snatch that money off of a winner? Just an example as why people do not announce these types of things.

Hey Taz.................The name of the announcer at PPMS and Lernerville is Dow, not "Dail"

Thanks for the correction. Accent sounded like Dail.....

I won the 50/50 about 15 or 16 yrs ago on the pittburgher weekend when the place was packed thinking I'm getting over a grand or better and got a little under 500 lol. I think you get half of the second half.

If the money from motordrome goes to the fire dept that covers the racing program im sure ppms does to cuz the MILEYS OWN MOTORDROME

Miley owns the track but Stan Laski leases it for the season and runs it

Under the new law all small games of chance has to payout 65% therefore 50/50's are illegal they have to be 35/65. Many other things were affected like the elimination of Chinese auctions. I always assumed racetrack 50/50's supported the safety crews, I guess that was naive.

The good old days when the Pgher was the Pgher and the bleachers were packed and 50/50 people walked around the bleachers for 2 hrs the pot still didnt break $500.....I think Mileys get 60% Jared gets 20% for new tires from practicing at the track all week and the true winner gets screwed and gets the rest....oh Lernerville had a bad turnout for an outlaw race tonight and 50/50 was $860..oh and after the pulled the 1st # and waited 15 minutes with no winner they pulled another winner..image that at PPMS!! yeah right.
