This week in Las Vegas, I cannot count the number of penny slots in the casinos. They are front and center. They are neon-lit and musical. And a wide demographic occupy the stools in front of the machines.
What I have not taken time to observe (because I have to get over to my quarter slot machine that has the spinning top piece for Bonus Spins, not to be confused with the Wheel of You Know What slot machines that beckon with their chimes but drive me away with their computer-generated crowd cheers) is whether casino waitresses tour the penny slot arenas offering free drinks. Surely that is the best measure of how the penny slot customers are valued by the management.
