Fantasy Greyhound Racing
There are several of us who miss the fun of greyhound racing since The Woodlands closed in Kansas City, but we have found a way to bring a little of the excitement back. A lot of sports have Fantasy Leagues, so we thought we would apply this concept to greyhound racing. So, you are invited to join our Fantasy Greyhound Racing League. Our competition will be limited to just one card a week. We will use the Saturday evening race card each week at Derby Lane in St. Petersburg, Fla.
How to play: You simply pick the one dog that you think will win each race, and then you will get points for your team if the dog finishes in the top four spots. A win is worth 16 points, second place is worth 10 points, third place is worth 8 points and fourth place is worth 6 points. If your dog finishes in fifth through eighth place or is scratched, your team gets zero points for that race. |
