Why do they not serve alcohol?

I agree! Casino's that do this are only cutting their own throat : /

I agree! Casino's that do this are only cutting their own throat : / Like going to a steakhouse and only ordering a salad, just won't work in my opinion. I think they made a big mistake.

If you still think that everything casinos do is motivated by money, remember this. BTW, some people go to the casino primarily to smoke.

Casino as nanny? Give me a frickin' break!

^^^ Haha Treyster so true

[Skyler]

Haha, I don't drink very much and I still have no impulse control with gambling! This does suck though.

I believe the reason there is no alcohol goes back to the negotiations between former governor Jim Doyle and the tribes. Dejope was formally a Bingo Hall only so you could play at age 18.
The negotiations at the time were silly cause the state said they had too many casinos already. Madison is the state Capitol so they basically told the HoChunk it would be an alcohol free facility or not at all. Ironic thing is that there has been expansion in the state since then in Wittenberg that allows alcohol.

Thanks Darrell - interesting. I'm not too familiar with Indian casinos as our closest is Coushatta in Louisiana.

There's another casino I can cross off my bucket list.

Well, I won't ever go back there! I liked the other one near the dells. Love to drink and smoke while I gamble!
