Fair Program #2

We had a big jackpot just prior to opening, Concello decided against a dirt ring and opted for a concrete surface. We later learned that this would eliminate the need for the prop crew to move a stage in and out. After a few complaints from me and Tommy Hanneford he came up with the plan to put in a dirt path just inside the ring curb about six feet wide for the horses to run on. Nobody was satisfied and I never could understand why Concello even involved himself since he was leaving as soon as the first ticket was sold anyway. Finally Mrs. Woodcock grew weary of the discussions and I was terrified when without warning I observed her and Mr. Concello in a heated debate, I was prepared for the worst but we wound up with a dirt ring.
