My first thought was Atlantic City too. So much wasted potential...

If only they could get their shit together...I find the area so depressing, like why would I want to go there for relaxation? lol

The sad reality is that they need to gentrify the city. They had their chance over the last few decades but instead chose to launder money and bankrupt most of the revenue generating casinos.

With casinos opening literally in NYC times square and throughout other states, I don't ever see a real reason to go to AC anymore. Sad because I actually really like it there and the whole concept but it just doesn't work

True. For the price of a room, dinner, gambling etc, I can almost fly to Vegas and spend just about the same amount of money.
