Gambling Today: McCarran International Airport Installs New Kind of Vending Machine to Lure Travelers

Nevada is thinking outside the box to convince gamblers that Las Vegas casinos are safest to return to in the country. All gamblers who fly to Sin City and forget their personal protective equipment have a new kind of machine that will instantly “pay off.” McCarran International Airport has become the first airport in the country to install brand new vending machines selling hand sanitizer, gloves and face masks.

When travelers land at McCarran they are instantly greeted by rows of slot machines, affording gamblers immediate gratification to try their luck prior to arriving at their hotel. The new white vending machines do not have all the bells and whistles of a Wheel of Fortune machine, instead looking very similar to snack or drink machines, but with more prized items inside for those looking for added protection from the virus.
