U.S. consumers spent $32.5 billion on casino gambling last year, the lowest level in almost three years, according to the American Gaming Association. The public's perception of gambling as "perfectly acceptable for anyone" fell from 57% in 2003 to 43% last year.
This slump is personified in the faces, or lack thereof, around game tables in Vegas. Traffic at McCarran International Airport is down 12% this year from last. Meanwhile, room rates in town have dropped 27% from last year to a median price of $97 a night, according to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority. Vacancies climbed by 6% during the first five months of the year compared to last year, and 22% fewer conventions came to town during that period.
