Jai Alai has been played in Cuba for years even since Castro banned
it in 1960! The difference is that it has been played as a "true"
sport and not as a "betting" sport.
The fronton is near "Cerro Pelao" where most Olympic
caliber athletes train.
After Castro truely falls, which is not really what is happening
now, I think the country will be in shambles for years to come
and there won't exist an atmosphere conducive to pari mutuels.
