I'm not much of a gambler but I actually live in Ledyard (Home of the World's largest casino). I guarantee you the place will be packed. They have called their outside maintanance people to report in at 3PM and expect to stay over tonight at one of the hotels.

We go there about once every 3 months. The buffet id great, and we only play slots. We go when we can afford to lose what we take, which isn't much. It's a nice nite out, and we don't do much else in the way of entertainment.
