recover. nt

2. The Indian casinos are open

People are going to them from what I hear.

They take your temperature at the door and give you a disposable paper mask worth a buck.

You've got to be to go to one of these dumps at anytime IMO. To go right now is plain dumb.

3. Agree it's dumb. I love to gamble...but in a pandemic, no way I'm going near a casino.

4. I'd go once in a while to the local casinos - haven't been since Chinese New Year's Eve as CoVid...

was entering on the West Coast...since then, I've tried a few digital play for fun versions, but didn't find them much fun.

6. when i saw this

my first thought was: Circus Circus still exists?

it seemed long in the tooth when I 1st wet to Vegas in the late 80s.

7. It needs a bath, but I've heard it's a top earning property and Adventuredome Amusement Park factor?

Park for kids and adults I believe, but my interest in those sailed the summer I worked at one.

9. Circus Circus is on the "shady" end of the strip.

Walking outside after dark is an adventure
