All kidding aside, from what little I've been able to assemble from posts on here, it sounds like people such as the announcer, EMT's, push truck guys and gals and other numerous position people at a race track are not buying pit passes or paying an entry fee. I think it also would be safe to assume that if I stopped a sample of ten people waiting in line to buy a ticket for a night at the car races and asked them why they came to the track, I would bet they all would say to see the drivers and cars in action and the stars (drivers and car owners... sorry Big Willy) are paying the promoter to entertain these same people. This scenario is about as backwards as it gets.
Where else in the entertainment industry (except rodeos, I'm told) are the professional entertainers paying to entertain? Hmmm... I'm wondering if that headline act that just came to your local arena paid to get in.............
