I know a local thats got to be in his 60's and he still book's. He got busted about 10 yrs ago went away for about 3 yrs and now he is back to booking. He also runs a few Amvets.
I have known three old time bookmakers over the years that worked into their seventies and ended up busted. The "game" ended up overwhelming all three. These were men of great honor. Sad. RIP.
