Do you think the city of Las Vegas will be hurt or helped by an offshore Web casino using the city's name and seal in exchange for a fee or a share of the site's profits?

IMO, an arrangement such as the above can backfire too easily. If the bottom line is money for the city, they will probably agree.

Beth,
My opinion is, nothing, and I mean nothing will replace Las Vegas. I really can't see the use of a name & seal as being a big deal. Honestly, I don't even know what the seal of Las vegas looks like, nor do I care.
I am turned off by the internet casinos totally, so a name is just a name to me. It might however sway someone who uses those types of entertainment.

I'm with Lee. I really couldn't care less what onlice casino's do or say. There is absolutely no appeal for me.

I can see how it could backfire for Vegas if there's a big scandle with potential negative publicity and all. As for me, I just don't care.

I would be real carefull if I was Vegas.
It could backfire indeed with al the negative things around this on-line casino`s.

I hear to many stories about these casino`s.

And in my opinion something like that could never replace the atmosphere of Las Vegas.

I personally don't know why Vegas would want to be involved....even with the money. Seems like risky business to me.

I'm with Lee. I have no interest in them. I love Las Vegas and that is where I will spend my money. Besides, I don't play sportsbooks anymore.
