Yeah, when I went there for the first time I was about 5 yrs sober and couldn't think of a more depressing sight than old, dried out degenerate gamblers smoking and sipping free drinks around gambling tables that were mostly empty because Wescon was mostly engineers who are too smart to gamble where the house always wins.

By the third year I went the casinos figured it out and gave most of their gambling staff vacation time when we were in town. The restaurants did a good business of course.

Now if they let us count cards, they would have done a much better business! LOL
