Casinos pump in oxygen to keep people \'fresh.\' True/False?
 

I'm thinking this might be a ridiculous topic that I will be flamed for, but I've just got to know for sure [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I think it's false (was on the travel channel once)...

However, they do filter the air and pump "fresh air" back in, (to remove some of the smoke, etc...), however i do not believe this air has any more oxygen than normal air.

According to Snopes, it is false. However, I think they keep the air colder than normal air conditioning to keep people awake.

heh, you have any idea how much money it would cost to ship in and then pump oxygen into an area as large as a casino?

Re: Casinos pump in oxygen to keep people \'fresh.\' True/False?
 

False. However, a casino is designed to circulate air very quickly, which is why it might seem fresher than expected.

I think it might be true. When I was in Vegas I felt like I had a lot more energy and needed less sleep. I was also almost never hungry. I had to force feed myself

100% false. This would be the worlds worst fire hazard. No way it's true.

They do however have super filtering and air circulation systems, and some do pump in a pleasant odor. Every aspect of the casino is designed to keep you comfortable.

No - Huge fire hazzard - remember Apollo 1?

No, it's totally true. And they put amphetamines in the drinks to keep you awake so you'll keep playing. Plus they also put skin absorbant prozac in the keys for the ATMs to keep you happy.
