I read about it in news reports. Casinos aren’t my thing.

MGM located a casino in Detroit because IQ demographics mean lots of fools and suckers.

The problem with going to Canada to gamble is that you never know if they will kidnap you to forcibly vaxx you.

I joke. Slightly.

Do they have electronic pulltab bingo at the veterans and fraternal clubs in Michigan like they do over the border in Ohio? Cause it’s kind of like a slot machine.

Oh, amen, FRiend. I’m not so much a gambler as I was when i was young, but certainly understand it and still buy Powerball for every drawing. That said, being in line at the convenience store behind someone who wants 3 of the Chinese-themed scratch off, and two of the Easter egg ones, and one of the magic puppies, etc etc, and takes forever doing it, makes absolutely no sense to me

"It’s not like anyone needs casinos."

Bingo! It's hard to imagine Reagan sending in scabs to break the union on this one.

I passed through Las Vegas on my Pocatello to San Diego trip for the 50th high school reunion. I made a run by Gigaparts...one of the last ham radio stores in business and the only one on my route. A small purchase and on my way. I stayed in Glendale on the Pokey->San Diego route to split the drive. No desire to stay in Las Vegas. The return trip featured a stay in Beaver, UT at the Quality Inn (labeled Wingate now). Again, no desire to do more than pass through Las Vegas.

Those that can, will. Thanks to Comrade Bidung and Bidungomocs, the vast majority of Americans are falling behind.

I really don’t know.I only commented because I’ve driven through the tunnel from Detroit to Windsor and it took me less than 10 minutes.

Couldn't Biden "federalize" the croupiers?

We had two used Ford Escorts in the 1980’s
