Ahh, but the lighting, including the neon. Even the bigger one armed bandits were internally lit; I emptied the coin buckets from many a machine. I worked as a janitor in a casino in the 70s, we had antique 1907 (unlit) slot machines tucked away in the casino basement. My nephew was a slot machine technician, as well.

There is a reason that the gaming floors in Vegas are windowless, have no visible clocks, free alcohol for the players as long as they keep playing, etc. You don't believe that all that "glitz and glamour" was built because hotels/casinos lose money - or barely turn a profit, do you?
