30 minutes of gambling on player's card and not 1 minute less. They don't care how much money you spend at one of their restaurants or at the bar in Masquerade....they won't validate your parking unless your players card shows 30 minutes of play.



Because you are getting a service in return for your money. You get food. People that go in and gamble are pretty much free money for the casinos.

Service with a 300% markup, especially alcohol. They make plenty of money on food and drinks too.

So I could sit at penny slots, costing me probably $5-10 to play even if I don't win and get a free drink whenever the cocktail waitress comes around. Plus they could end up losing if I hit on the slots. They would rather validate my parking if I do that than if I spend 10x as much money at the bar or restaurant.

Its not like I'm trying to get free parking without spending money on something at Harrah's. They used to validate without a problem if I told them I hadnt been gambling but ate at the buffet and went for some drinks at the bar....then all of a sudden they became parking validation nazis with no sense of reasoning. Since I don't really gamble, I just go eat and drink at places that don't make it such a chore to park so I can spend money in their establishment
