“One gambling executive warns that Atlantic City faces a ‘death spiral,’ and some think that the solution is to think big — and beyond gambling.” - from The New York Times story “Can Atlantic City Raise the Stakes?”
Beyond gambling?
Can Atlantic City Raise the Stakes?
I don’t think it was fair in the first place for them to imply Atlantic City was always just known for gambling…
I mean, c’mon - gambling’s about the third thing I think of when I think of one of my favorite destinations - A.C. To me, Atlantic City’s the place where I can barter a third of a flask of Kessler for six hours with a “mature” whore within five seconds of walking out of my hotel! Or where I can get a stolen car of any make or model within ten minutes of my request! Or where I can drag a dead body through the street and not be judged!
So - there’s a lot for them to work with if they’re thinking they need to rebrand Atlantic City!
