Do you have any striking moments of hearing a song for the first time? I remember exactly where I was the first time I heard a milli (shitfaced at a college party naturally but I remember everything about it due to the momentousness of experiencing a milli)

I trained for a marathon by driving my car for 26 miles everyday, but somehow I ended up being terrible at actually running.

The answer, as with all brick and mortar retail, is the Internet & Smartphones. They're sucking up all the casino business into online betting, especially sports betting. Plus every suburban bar and restaurant having slots.
