The betting windows are located directly across from a bar and there are plenty of big screens to watch games. The lighting in the betting room suggests that they are going for more of “night-club” feel rather than a traditional sportsbook. This might be because of the confusion bettors had regarding closing times previously. At the front door of the betting room, there is a sign displayed with their operating hours. When I walked in the place looked a lot cleaner compared to Monmouth, especially the bathroom. (**This maybe because it was a Monday and there was no horse racing).
For one thing, there was no parking fee when I showed up. When compared to Monmouth Park, I must say that this place is much more presentable and pleasant. And with the sportsbook being on the way home, it provided a perfect opportunity for me to go despite the constant rain throughout the day. After seeing the wide reports of the excess vig at this sportsbook, I wanted to stop by to see for myself. East Rutherford of course, is home to the Meadowlands sports complex, where the Giants, the Jets, and the Ponies of the Meadowlands’ racetrack play. Having taken a Monday off to go to an interview in the middle of New Jersey, I decided to stop by the FanDuel Sportsbook located in East Rutherford, NJ.
