True, no doubt you're right. I'm happy to be in the minority here!
The bright lights and slot machines are no lure for me; the opposite in fact. Plus, even walking through the casinos, the smoke is so thick! Walking by and looking at those people gambling; none of them are smiling, so it sure doesn't look like they're having a good time.
Plus, you don't have to be all that smart to understand that the "opportunity to win big" is remote compared to the opportunity to lose whatever amount you gamble.
Anyway, good to hear you love it, but it's not my kind of place. Now once you get away from the strip and the old down-town and all that, it's fine. I've ridden their century, and it's a great ride with wonderful scenery.
