The Borgata Casino in it's first few years was truly an amazing experience, the decor and rooms were perfected as best as can be expected in Atlantic City.
The truth is however, with the bad economy and revenues in rapid decline, the Borgata has gone from an above average gambling experience to out right horrible.
The slots have been tightened to an unbelievably low percentage payback and now is obviously apparent to the everyday average slot player. They have lost most of their high rollers (Whales) in recent months due to poor payback percentages and 75/25 smoking ban. The Borgata has flooded the floor with massive amounts of penny machines and now attracts the penny players. The tables are way overpriced and way too crowded on a weekend night.
The 20 something crowd the casino now caters to, to raise cash through the nightclubs, drinks and sales of rooms, have nearly destroyed the sophisticated adult atmosphere that Borgata had once held. It is now overrun by noisy 20 somethings, drunk, loud, acting silly, falling on the carpet in front of your slot machine, yelling out for their friends, girls bitch slapping each other, yelling profanities. Young, horny guys without money to gamble, in search of intoxicated girls, roaming the casino floor in wolf packs, bumming cigarettes and money off the slot players.
Borgata..please, clean up your act!
