I would absolutely Love for a Casino to be built in my city or even somewhere within 100 miles of my city. I don't ever see it happening though. I live in the USA in the state of Kentucky. You can play the Lottery , Go to the horse races and bet. The state and tight Butt conservative nature of elected officials, will
never allow a full blown Casino to be built and Take away from the Horse Racing Industry in the state. Ever heard of "Churchill Downs and the Kentucky Derby"? One of the most famous horse races in the world if not the Most Famous. They bring in the Billions every year with Horse racing. We also have
KeeneLand in Lexington Ky. This is no light weight in the world of Horse Racing.
Now to be fair, there is a "Casino" opened 2 years ago and its with 45 minutes of my home. But, and a big But, They have no Live games! All machines. No Craps , no poker, no BJ, Just get you a bucket full of Quarters or Dollars and Sit there and keep stuffing them in the machines. Thats not a casino as far as i'm concerned. Its a gaming room.
I would visit the place if they ever decide to open up some tables for poker, BJ etc. Until then, I stay away.
Peace,
Tony
