Wasn’t really that bad because by that point so maybe people started staying home the casinos weren’t too busy anyway so no issues finding stuff to play

I also think that with all this downtime they are going to get creative with slot floor layouts and you’ll see some unusual layouts done to maximize the amount of games they can have on. I wouldn’t be surprised if you see some where they close their buffets down, or even poker rooms or the event spaces for a while and you’ll see slots in those areas spaced 6 feet apart. I drove past a couple of closed casinos recently and was surprised how many cars were parked in the employee lots so they are in there doing something.

The casinos are itching to be open and make money as fast as possible so they’ll make it work. Heck I don’t really like playing super close next to people anyway if I can avoid it so maybe it could be enjoyable.

I like your ideas. Take away the buffets, etc, and put machines in there to space them out. My local is so small and so crowded, you can barely get into a seat without knocking the person next to you. I envisioned myself going back the other day and remembered how quickly I can lose money. I am missing Vegas more than my local which I never thought I would say.
