Went for the first time for a private party. Staff were kind and helpful in explaining the betting process. The private room had nice views and its own bar. read more

Fair Meadows - Horse Racing Near Me - Tulsa, Oklahoma

i visited the racing pavillion today to watch the kentucky derby horse race, which i've gone to the fair meadows pavillion to watch once before, though not since high school. although i'd planned to place a modest bet on the main event, the bet teller informed me when i'd got to the front of the teller counter window that cash payment is required to place a bet, and the atm on location had run out of cash. nonetheless, i'd heard from my mom that she may place a bet on a horse she had mentioned to me earlier in the day, and i'd seen some guys i'd known from high school with bets, so still had some interest in watching the race, which i'd likely have had even without knowing anyone who had money on it. further, the venue had a concession cart in the room with reserved table, in which teller counter and concession access was still available to the non-reserving public. from the concession, i got a pepsi soda-pop and twix candy, the former of which served as a delicious beverage to sip while standing in anticipation of the main event, as though the venue had a few and far between seats available in the non-reserved section, every table i'd seen was occupied by the time i'd got to the venue about 45 minutes before the main event race. nonetheless, i was welcomed by the guys i'd known from high school to stand at a table, and had a front row projection screen viewing experience of the race, during which the crowd was enthusiastic and got nearly as loud as i've seen the crowd get at live sporting events. read more

Fair Meadows is a great place to go if you're into horse racing. It makes for a fun destination on a summer evening in June & July when they are racing. There aren't a lot of amenities here. Seating is in a simple metal structure grandstand or on picnic tables near the track. There's an open air beer garden where you can get drinks or sodas. They have coolers set up dispensing free water which is nice on a hot day. Admission is free which makes it even better. Food is limited to snack or ballpark style choices...popcorn, hot dogs, pretzels, extra. There is a restaurant located next to the track but it doesn't overlook the track like at other horse track facilities I've been to. All in all, it is a good venue for what it is; focused around its main purpose...racing read more

If you're looking for something free to do, come here to see the horse races!! It wasn't free for us because we were getting really into the gambling, but that made it all the more fun! It's outdoors so it's very hot, but well worth it. read more
