Over the course of a few weeks, I
conducted a very brief survey, asking randomly chosen casino visitors one
simple question. The question was, "Why did you visit this casino today?"
Besides receiving an odd look every now and then, I managed to get a range
of different reasons why people visit casinos.
Reason #1
To gamble. Not suprisingly, this
was the main reason as you can probably guess by looking around the game
tables and slot machines.
Reason #2
To eat and drink. While some singles
and couples attended the casino to enjoy a few drinks at the bar, others
were more interested in dining out at the casino restaurant.
Reason #3
Entertainment. This is another very
common reason for visiting a casino. Whether it's to see a comedy, magic,
singing or dancing show, entertainment is a major factor when it comes
to drawing casino visitors.
Reason #4
To socialize. Catching up with friends
and socializing was another very common reason for visiting a casino.
Reason #5
Employment. This is not a reason
that you'd expect to come up too frequently in people's minds, but it is
nevertheless true. Many people go to a casino because they work there,
be it as a dealer, showgirl or a waitress.
Reason #6
Boredom. Many people decided to
venture down to the casino because they were feeling bored and did not
know where else to go, or what else to do on a Friday or Saturday night.
Reason #7
Someone brought me here. Someone
decided to visit the casino and bring their partner, relative, friend or
colleague along.
Reason #8
To learn how to play the games.
A few people attended the casino to watch and learn how to play some of
the casino games.
Reason #9
Romance. Be it the couple who decided
to meet at the casino on a date or the single man or woman who is hoping
to meet someone interesting, casinos are apparently great venues for meeting
interesting new people.
Reason #10
There was no solid reason 10, but
a collection of funny, strange and weird answers such as "I needed to use
the bathroom" and "Someone owes me money".
So as you can see, people don't just
visit casinos in order to gamble, but for a variety of interesting reasons.
