I worked on a television spot for a casino once, nasty place, for like 14 hours! The constant droning sound of the slot machines (a constant rrmrmmmm the entire day), the computer network linked gaming machines, ID card-instead-of-using-coins systems, and ever present "big brother" concealed video cameras freaked me out and made it feel like the whole thing was a scam. Sure, maybe those things (the ID card, networked games, and cameras) are there to prevent fraud, but it sure seemed to me like it would be easy to rig the system so that "big brother" decided when you won or lost a game. A system where they could determine whether you were winning "too often" and could "scale back" your earnings. This is all speculation, of course. But, it wasn't a happy place, either, being surrounded by poor, lower middle class proletariat spending their last pennies on a rigged system that was impossible to get ahead in. Sad, very sad. On top of this, the ad's we were filming featured young, attractive folk going out for a night on the town. Surely, they must have known that casino's only exist because of pensions, not "young money". Oh well, not for me. Indiana Live! has their work cut out for them to get me interested in their product, that's for sure. Not sure what you were expecting?

The Maker's Mark Lounge and NASCAR appeal to a wide age range.
