- First and foremost - There's nobody there! I'm talking 6:00 am. I mean, to hop to any machine, play a little BJ, hit a whole row of Video Poker - it's just the best. And the quiet is just surreal. The few people who are there either just got up or are looking for breakfast somewhere.
- Beverage service - nothing like black coffee and all the water you want - and not having to wait long to get it.
- Smoke - you can just feel the last remnant of it being cleared before the weekend crowds appear. It's the crispest air you'll find at a casino (if anyone can refer to casino air as crisp?) .
- Cleanliness - Machines are wiped down, and there aren't as many machines to sit down at where you there are ashes all over and/or drink glasses not picked up.
- If it's a local casino, I get to to leave before the buses and weekend crowds arrive, and I still have the rest of the day.
In Las Vegas it's even better, because it's the best time for a walk before playing without being bothered by somebody....but that's a rant for a different time.
Before I have internationally insulted someone, please understand I have nothing against many of the activities that people like to do while gaming - it's just that I prefer to have the casino to myself. Selfish? - kinda. Enjoyable? - you betcha!
