Golden Gate Fields Racetrack To Close This Fall

The racetrack opened in 1941.

Its closure leaves Northern California without a horse racetrack.

Bay Meadows across the bay closed in 2008.


Not that I couldn't see that coming. There weren't many people in the stands on the couple of race days I attended over 15 years ago.

I'm surprised it stayed open as long as it did.

That waterfront property it's sitting on has got to be worth a fortune.
