This is new

 The limousine offered a straightforward view of Oaklawn Park's infield, and Rock sat in the backseat with the Oaklawn owner. A dozen or so others, primarily college-aged, were crowded in with them, and they all watched as a wedding party of four walked toward a stage set up near the infield's largest concession stand. "This is new, isn't it?" Rock said. "It is," the owner said. "We thought it might appeal to our sentimental sort of fans." The party reached and stepped onto the stage. In the very instant of their arrival, it swung up with a violent mechanical jerk and tossed all four at high speed out of the facility and into the racetrack's enormous parking lot, a quarter of a mile away. It appeared as an unsurvivable event, and Rock wondered if it might ruin Oaklawn.
