* I would make it impossible
for kids to be allowed anywhere near a casino. I think it should be a
crime to have kids wondering around a casino, why do these parents bring
children to an adult environment anyway, don't they know where Disneyland is
located? Barbara N.
* I would like to see many of the
show prices lowered to us normal human incomes. Barney

* Mr. Reed, maybe you can help make my
pet peeve a reality. Some casinos have children play areas that have
gambling type machines which pays off in paper coupons that you can redeem for
prizes. What is this, training ground for future adults and the casino
feels a need to train them at an early age. Disgusting at best!
Not to name names, but Excalibur comes to mind quickly. Russ

* I agree with the comment
regarding show ticket prices—they are much too high, and I can (and do) see
the same stars in my local area for one-third of the price.
However, regarding Russ’ comment about the casinos training youngsters at an
early age, I disagree. Don’t blame the casino owners. The
parents of these children are training them at an early age to be gamblers by
bringing their children to Vegas in the first place. Children learn life’s
lessons by watching their parents. Leave them at home with a sitter, or
preferably, take them on a purely family oriented vacation. By the
way, back to the question---coffee makers and refrigerators in all Vegas hotel
rooms would be wonderful. Chris from Ohio
* You must be 18 years old to
enter my place. G.J. Smith
* I would figure out a way to remove
all the smoke from the casino, either by banning smoking or obtaining
equipment that filters the air properly. It is very disgusting to visit
a casino and leave smelling of cigarettes. Lance D
* Put a few clocks in the casino. i
understand why casinos do not want clocks, but some of us responsible people
who do not carry a watch would like to know what time it is. Gloria

* Kids and casinos do not mix and I would
not allow persons under the age of 21 in my casino if I was in charge.
Not sure why parents think that a casino is a modern baby sitter. I
understand the parents wanting to gamble, but if they have enough money to
gamble, then they have enough money to pay for a person to watch their
children back home. Estelle TX
* Cocktail waitresses are suppose to be
the most beautiful and gracious ladies bringing you drinks and making your
gambling experience more pleasant. Well someone needs to tell the
extremely old, very very over weight cocktail waitresses that it is time to
retire. I understand unions and peoples right to work, but I also
understand that a cocktail waitress that is 30 years past here prime and fifty
to hundred pounds over weight does not enrich my Las Vegas experience.
If you are a professional athlete and you reach your prime, they do not renew
your contract, why cannot the same thing be true for cocktail
waitresses. The only reason some of these new casinos do so well is
because of the ancient staff that will not retire at the older
buildings. RR IL
