You're right.
I'm inclined to go along with Denis McGlynn of Dover Downs with his estimates of the losses the state is going to take over this. The casinos in Atlantic City and West Virginia are NOT that far away, especialy for those coming from Maryland and Pennsylvania. In many cases they are closer.
What most people don't understand is that the slots operations at the 3 race tracks in Delaware are controlled by the state Lottery and the state gets 35% of the proceeds. That's a big chunk of change.
Gabz, this total ban will be very interesting. I feel really sorry for the people who smoke there, but since you CAN go across the state lines, I'd LOVE to see Delaware fall flat on this face with this one.
I'd love to see it dry up and blow away! (Then the winds would blow you and your family out of that state, Gabz! How does THAT sound??)
