The younger generation just gambles on their phones now. DraftKings and FanDuel have created a whole new generation of gambling addicts, but they've lost too much of their money to go to Vegas even if they wanted to

I work with guys who talk to each other about their sports betting while the machines run, they believe they're making money doing it. It's pretty depressing to hear.

I would be so thankful if Vegas were able to squash the online gambling thing so it’s like the old days.
