I heard they were talking about 2 weeks ago and people at the OTB were ready for something to happen, then nothing. It's really hammered the service employees and business is off 60-70%. Feel bad for the bartenders, waitstaff and tellers. They have cut back hours and laid off some tellers. Most bartenders and waitstaff are making 50% less than the did before 12/9/2014. They ran into that right before Christmas also, which is especially nasty. To me, they're the losers in this.
The winner is probably TVG, which many in Philly can use because of Harrah's, PAbets. Although some people won't use an ADW, guess the are off the grid.
