No. You said, "No one pays to see dog fights....It's just the gambling." And 
what I am saying is that that's not true....It's the dog fights they want to 
see. If all they wanted to do was gamble, then they could gamble on the flip 
of a coin and not bother with the dogs, and it would be just as popular.
