Massachusetts is home of the 2% source marketing fee. they can all go to hell along with the race track.
here's the reason why Sufolk never got the license. years back the owner of Sufolk, Fields, worked for Wynn. he swore up and down that Wynn was going to get hold of NYRA. he never produced. Fields, who also promoted things like Ringling Brothers Circus and Disney on Ice, went in and bought Sufolk thinking he was a cinch to get the casino once the laws passed. Wynn decided to come out of the sidelines and get the license himself in the worst possible place you could possibly imagine. but Wynn knows what it takes to get the licenses, Fields doesn't.
now Fields is trying to bailout with source marketing fees. bottom line from my standpoint is he deserves simulcasting and source marketing fees as much as Hillary Clinton deserves to be president.
