Interesting point about social stratification. I think this has become a bit more prevalent as casinos seek a certain market. People who go to the Bellagio are not very happy or comfortable at Circus Circus, and vice-versa. Binions used to be a place where there was more mixing I think, because the focus was so much on the gambling, with everything happening in a small area. No high roller villas or high-stakes salons. I have not spent much time there, but I wonder how the Palms is doing in that they seemed to be going after an unusual market mix. Some very well-to-do or famous tourists and then local players too. Unusual. There have always been nice places and cheaper places, but it seems like the places are getting more focused on a given narrower market.

the owners of the joint do everything within their power to separate fantasy from reality.
