A casino doesn't discriminate and it would be a way to keep the illegals money in the area....lol. The casino could have a wild west theme complete with a wild west type bar and role player cowboys and such....
As for the events...one event comes to mind that both whites and hispanics like..>Boxing. The Casino in KC has boxing both pro (obviously not the big championship matches) and amateur. Boxing is HUGE in Dodge. A lot of hispanics go to bars to watch the pay for view fights and it's SRO. I think an occasional boxing match and some wrestling and/or ultimate fighting (they recently had one in Garden that sold out) would do well. A casino would draw more conventions here also. Along with Casino drawing more people you could add a small hotel tax..(the did that in Missouri but not a small one) and use that tax money also. To me this would draw a lot more people and appeal to more of a diverse crowd than some 8 million dollar cowboy and horse show....just my thoughts. |
It'll never work Army!! It makes too much SENSE!!! Meanwhile, all the people of Dodge City go out of State to spend all of their gambling money. The people of the Indian casinos, Oklahoma, Nevada, Mississippi, etc., they all love us for that!! Just so you know, Army, I---------shudder---------agree with you again!!
