I worked there for almost a decade.
I haven't been back since.

We also have what was one of the highest stakes Casino of the world in its day, that one I still do like.
It is now a museum and a nice piece of architecture.

The one I worked at is a shit hole, run by shitheads. ~It paid reasonably well though. >_>

Anyway, I don't have the Gambling Gene.
I do enjoy going to The Track though, if that counts.
It's probably one of the nicest, and certainly the most storied Track in the US.

I only went to the racino once. They gave me $20 in credits for signing up and I won $120. I promptly left and paid for dinner in downtown Toga.

"Saratoga Casino Hotel"
I think my original badge said Racino though...a word I always found odd.

That's the way to do it. You ended the day properly!!
Get in, and get out.

People win, but they give it all back.

I have so many stories about that place...I really wish I made a journal.

((Side note: At one point they reduced their free play to $3 dollars....three freaking dollars))

~I'd probably go back under completely new management and ownership.
Which only got worse when Churchill Downs stepped their toe into the mix...which didn't work out for them. They actually thought they could use that to get into the real track. ..As if..

I am glad you went downtown with your winnings though!!
Tons of great food options! Ironically I really haven't gotten down there too much this year, even though I basically work down there.
Gaffney's has become an other level shit show btw. Not that it was ever my spot.

I'm a poker dealer at one. I seldom spend my off time at them because I get enough of the environment 5 days a week.

No, I've gambled at them a few times on trips, but its not really something I'd want to do regularly.

Oh no, I'm not judging you, I always thought it was an odd word.
Certain old names stick.
The right taxi driver can still get you to grampies on South Broadway.
Or The Street of Dreams in GF.

FRI 10/05/12 9:00PM...

A concert at a casino. We played some penny slots but that was it. I might have played some cheap black jack.

Never set foot in a casino in my life. Closest thing to gambling that I do is invest in venture capital firms sometimes.
