Dog racing is very popular with Tucsonans, and watching greyhounds race can be a rewarding experience—both financially and culturally. Located in Hispanic South Tucson, Greyhound Park lets the dogs out Tuesday to Sunday evenings for a $1.25 admission fee. Parimutual betting is offered on site. Follow up a big win by enjoying a $5.99 buffet at the clubhouse. In addition to the nighttime fun, the track hosts a "flop meet" (an open market) on the premises every Saturday and Sunday from 7a to 4p.

  • There are people trying to help the dogs after they are done racing.
  • The industry breeds so many dogs, 10,000 greyhounds die a year despite rescue efforts.

“Poorly maintained, ghetto track plagued by scandal and animal right violations. Do not go here- icky place in "the rough part of town" Not what you want nice tourists seeing, and as a nice tourist, you don't want any part of this place. It's an embarrassment to the community. The Tucson track is one of the worst in the country- this is where dogs go to die-or disappear in the desert with their ears cut off. You bet, they die.”
