The Casino That Turned into A Cigar Bar
FROM the land that invited us to debate the meaning to “sexual relations”, comes a definition of smoking.
In Colorado’s mountain casinos smoking is banned. In Colorado’s mountain casinos, the players are smoking cigars.
Gamblers were still able to light up in the Wild Card Casino in Black Hawk on Tuesday, the first day the ban took effect in casinos in Black Hawk, Central City and Cripple Creek.
You see, the casino is not a casino. No, it is not. The casino is a cigar bar.
Gina Miller, a manager at Wild Card, says the casino has always operated a shop in sells tobacco products, including cigars and cigarettes.
“We’re operating under the law,” says she.
Stephanie Steinberg of Smoke-Free Gaming of Colorado says: “The Wild Card Casino is clearly a casino and has always operated as a casino. If they think they are a cigar bar then they shouldn’t have slot machines or a gaming license for that matter.”
The cigar bar exemption was part of the original statewide smoking ban that took effect in 2006.
