Some shady as shit...


Should have just stayed in the car and driven to a police station. If I had just won a good chunk of money, I'd be paranoid as fuck and wouldn't trust anybody on my way home.

Even if I'd been cut off by a car and it was made to look like a car accident, I'd lower the window and scream "follow me to the police station" or I'd call 9-1-1 as an alternative... but forget getting out of the car. Sorry, bruh... not getting out.


I've been to that casino... it's a giant tent, with a ton of shady looking people. My mom was getting surgery done next door at a regiona hospital, and so I decided to walk next door and check out the casino... I walked in and quickly walked out. :lol



Edit: I remember in one of the gun threads someone mentioned wanting a gun for protection when walking out of a casino or heading home from one.

I see your reasoning.

Well I'm sure he had no idea he was being followed, but still that's completely fucked and it's sad that this shit even happens.

I was once robbed at gunpoint on the way home after winning 8k. It makes you realized how much more you value you life than money.

Man, I'd be so wary after winning a jackpot, especially if it were from that casino. Used to live close to it, and it's pretty damn shady in that area...

Yeah, I bet this happens all of the time. If I won big at a casino, i would stay at the same casino until the morning if possible and would use a small percentage of my winnings to ensure that I get the eff out of dodge safely and with my winnings.

Crazy shit. I won $10k at a casino and there was no way I was taking that in cash though. Luckily there were very few people around when I won as it was late at night. To say I was paranoid walking out to the parking garage would be an understatement. A nice long nervous ride home ensued (at least it was almost all highway). Wasn't as nervous when I've won in Vegas.

Yeah this happened to someone at a casino in Arizona too a while back. I know because I was there the next day and people were talking about playing with the guy. Lucky for me I only played low-limit 7-card stud where even after a great night the most you'd win would be like $100.

Or maybe he did not care about picking up some 20 dollar bills after stealing several thousands?

Naaah..

Not shocking. Last time I was at Foxwoods we gambled and went to a club and hooked up with some girls. They tried to get slick and pull a jack move when we brought them back to the room. Instead they got arrested. There is some shady people out there. Even young hotties scheming together. That was an eye opener.

No. but seriously, what are the statistics behind this type of crime. How often does a winner get assaulted/killed right after winning big in a casino?

I'd bet anything that the follower was a little off mentally. But it seems like keeping that money wasn't in the cards this time.

Las Vegas is shady as shit, but casinos outside of Vegas are even worse. I remember a couple friends and I coming out of a shitty casino in Alabama (Victoryland) in the dead of night. As we were walking through the parking lot back to our car, we suddenly heard " You boys win anything tonight?" I looked to my left to see a man cloaked in shadows sitting in the cab of his truck with the window down. We just kept walking and as we were past the truck I noticed two guys squatting in the shadows behind the back bumper. I stared at them and they just stared back and watched us as we went on to our car. Fuck that place.
