You don't think there are private poker games ?  ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3.  There's still some Greyhound tracks too.  I don't know about the other shit but if you can bet on it someone will.

It won’t cease to be, but each state that pulls the casino subsidy will push it more towards irrelevance.   Already on the way, a matter of how much money track ownership wants to lose.

Pennsylvania is eyeballing the slots money. Voters all want it to go to the schools.
Pa will lose the money soon.
That will start the end because we have no handle.
No attendance.
We do nothing and give nothing.
Well deserved.
No one should cry when its done.
Everyone took and no one gave back.
