In a Nutshell

Horses bolt toward glory around the track during afternoon and evening races as fans follow from the grandstand and bet on outcomes

The Fine Print

Millions of people worldwide enjoy horseracing, but very few of them actually have the speed, strength, and endurance required to win a race against a horse. Leave horseplay to the professionals with this GrouponLive deal to Emerald Downs in Auburn (up to a $19.50 total value). For $10, you get a horseracing package that includes the following:

  • One general-admission ticket to a live racing event, which is held every weekend through September 23 (up to a $7 value). Races begin at 6 p.m. on weekdays and 2 p.m. on weekends and holidays. See the full schedule.
  • One race program (a $2.50 value).
  • A voucher for $10 worth of food and drink, such as slices of pizza for $3, cheeseburger baskets with fries and soda for $7.50, and burritos for $6.

Veterans and attendees aged 17 and younger receive free admission on any day, and seniors get in free on Thursday. Each admission ticket includes access to the first five levels of the stadium, plus areas such as the paddock and park.

Throughout the summer, the track at Emerald Downs rumbles beneath galloping hooves as four-legged athletes bolt toward glory in front of fans both young and old. During each racing event, jockeys clamor for a top position in the track standings atop their equine counterparts, who, rather than retiring to quiet lives as local-newspaper oat critics, solidify their legacy in Emerald Downs lore by attempting to break the track's longstanding records. At self-service or clerk-operated betting windows on every level of the stadium, spectators can place wagers after scouting post positions, jockey bios, and other information in the racing program.

Throughout the season, Emerald Downs augments the excitement with a full lineup of promotions and special events, including giveaways, free family entertainment, and Fabulous Friday, during which live music ushers horses on as they circle the track.

Emerald Downs

A day at Emerald Downs can take on many forms. Some visitors sprawl across blankets in the facility's park, while some scoot to the edge of their reserved seats in the grandstand. Still others relax in the Redhook Turf Club, an all-inclusive, members-only area for dining, wagering, and watching the races. It's this flexibility that has made Emerald Downs a popular summer destination since 1996. On every level, the stadium features self-service or clerk-operated betting windows, and its programs come packed with jockey bios, postpositions, and other bettor-friendly tools. Even during non-racing season, Emerald Downs offers full-card simulcasting so fans don't have to resort to betting on slowly drifting clouds.

Groupon Says

The Groupon Guide to: Billiards Variations

Most casual pool players are familiar with some version of eight ball, where stripes and solids compete to clear their own balls off the table before sinking the eight. However, this is just one of hundreds of ways to “play pool.” What are others?

  • Snooker
  • Snorker
  • No-Pocket Bounce’about
  • Stripes vs. Skins
  • Cowboy Pool (played on horseback)
  • Nothin’ but Fours
  • Gunpool (no cues; you shoot the balls into the pockets with guns)
  • Texas No-Ball
  • Love-Style (winner marries loser)

If you lose to someone at pool, are you legally required to marry them?
