MGM Resorts releases casino reopening plan for Las Vegas Strip, other US properties

Red Wind Casino in the state of Washington announced they will be formally opening May 18th. They also announced they will be 100% smoke-free and that is the best thing that could have came out of all of this and I think every Casino in the United States will be that way or should be that way. Smokers will still go no matter what they say, in fact the state of Minnesota went smoke-free and all of the non-tribal casinos prohibited smoking.  Of course they all kept going, they just go outside to smoke what's the big deal?

Just a tiny bit over the weekend, the first two pictures are from Saturday and the next two pictures are from Sunday.  The first 3 at a large convenience store chain in the Midwest USA.  We have gone for about about two months without virtually any Bakery products or other self-serve foods without being pro rationed or pre-packaged, individually packaged, etc. Most of the bulk foods in the supermarkets such as the candy and other bulk items such as olives and specialty foods are removed and staying removed.  Every buffet i have come across is either shut down or has been physically removed. I had a small self-service section at my restaurant which I would put featured foods that were freshly cooked and the State Health Department came in and told me what I had to do to keep it. I decided to remove it as well their rules and regulations concerning it were cost prohibited and countless times more stringent than handling the food in the kitchen and regular service from preparation to customers table.

Anyway on Saturday I finally observed some donuts in The Fresh Bakery case at a large convenience store chain and although the flavors were limited on Sunday they added and started to get back to normal. As well for the first time the roller grills were in operation once again.  After that I had to stop at the supermarket to pick up some cleaning supplies and the paper goods aisle was getting better and I've said all along that there's no shortage in the supply chain it was just in getting it to the marketplace and all the distribution and packaging and trucking that has to go on to get it onto the shelves, that the majority of the public does not understand.

You know the comparison between what has happened with the C-19 AFTERMATH and just say playing Baccarat, where as a player goes up to the baccarat table, Buys-in and expects the shoe to produce fallacy and fulfill his desire after he spent time reading and testing and proving himself on the internet, is so close in analogy it's actually sad. True, but sad!

The new norm?  A norm at all?  Uncharted territory.

Reopen?

No way they will reopen soon, I bet they will be closed for long.

And I guess the least thing anyone want to do now is gambling or going into frequented indoor places as casinos.

Here's the first official announcement I can find this morning as I posted, I do know there are two possibly three, major Midwest Casino properties that have already leaked out they will reopen the morning of May 15th they just didn't make it official. Probably they will make it official early this week.

Today we're hanging out looking at reopening the restaurant and looking at a few other things reopening with a few of our close friends and family, decided to make some lunch and talk about it. There are two of the best hot dogs on the market which is the Vegas Brand they come out of Illinois, to me they are the best, we made up some chili with some jalapenos on top of them. And we got some shredded potatoes, put some cheese and added cream sauce that came out really really good.

Like I said just hanging out getting all our inventory done and more this afternoon.
