Come on man. They had to close something as a symbolic gesture. Why not close the loss leading all you can eat buffet and keep the gaming tables open. Profit over public health. Very trumpish imho.
I don’t see how Vegas or the gaming industry could quickly recover. It’s usually the last leg to recover and first leg to go down, historically speaking. So there’s no hurry, better deals ahead. I think during the height of 9/11 friends were receiving free from CA flight+ free hotel stay hoping you would show up to gamble. I’m pretty sure we will see this not so far into the future.
