hahahaha! All they would boost is possibly prices. Do you honestly think that he chose to go to Dominos because he heard it was really amazing? I think the only chain restaurant that doesn't raise their prices from what you would pay elsewhere is In & Out Burger...I read that somewhere recently but can't remember where.

Typical Las Vegas gambler after a (MUCH more common) loss: "Er, um...I broke even. About."

Haven't you heard that what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas? I sure wouldn't want to put my shenanigans in a TR.
This!
that $100 is considered entertainment.. especially with those adult beverages flowing.

It is important to gamble in a ‘system’, TR AND MGM are nationwide and perks in each carry forward.
Gambling shouldn’t be looked at as a win-lose proposition. Even small time gamblers (particularly for slot players) get free rooms, free food, free entertainment (mostly on weekdays for ‘small fry’).

It was cool Wynn had gaming tables with plexi partitions. I recall every other sink at the Wynn bathroom was sealed off for social distancing somewhat.
The Palazzo bathrooms had plexi partitions at the sinks but not on the gaming tables.

I stayed in Caesars Palace for 4 nights. (1)No housekeeping--but you can request extra towels. (2)I stayed in the Forum Tower, of the 6 elevators only 3 were working; to aid in combatting the VIRUS having fewer people in an elevator at one time is prudent--difficult to do with only 1/2 the elevators working.

Resort Fee
I had an idea on how to ask for a waiver or discount of the fee. Politely ask to speak with a manager and tell them you will not be using the Fitness Center due to Social Distancing nor the boarding pass printing or Phonecalls just WIFI and with a smile ask if it can be waived or pro rated.

I stayed at Bellagio 3 weeks ago and they did HK. I'm sure they knew about the elevators, so I didn't complain. Perhaps they needed a part to make the repair, but had to be requisitioned through Fed. Gov. procurement channels.

I called Bellagio earlier and they said they are doing HK and running all elevators (except for Spa Tower as it’s closed).

During my stay at Bellagio, there were 6 elevators for the 1-14 floor group, one of the 6 was "out" for about an hour--not 4+ days as in Caesars Palace.
