The smoke, along with the demeaning costumes (short red dresses with fluffy white trim) on the women serving drinks, was the thing I liked least about my experience.
There is a “non-smoking” section of the casino, but I still left with a raspy throat and the reek of smoke on my clothes. Obsessive types should probably stick with video games – or leave their ATM cards at home.ĭon’t be caught by surprise by the indoor smoking, which is banned in most of Washington State, but is allowed here by tribal law. I played for a while on a “Cleopatra” slot machine. As for the gambling, I think my friend Patrick had it right when he said that he’s too good at math to be taken in. The show was irreverently funny although at least one previously uninitiated guest came unprepared for the duo’s hilarious, but raunchy song lyrics and left scowling. It took an invitation from a Kim with a free ticket to hear Garfunkel & Oates in concert to get me to have my first casino experience. I even surprised myself with this post for rain-proof fun in the Pacific Northwest.
