Alabama Casinos
Note to self: Do not play in casinos in Alabama...
Alabama Attorney General Luther Strange has shut down the VictoryLand casino in Shorter, Ala., alleging that the gaming facility is operating illegal gambling. Strange's office also filed a lawsuit against the Poarch Band of Creek Indians in an effort to close the tribe's three casinos in the state. "While we respect Mr. Strange's attempts to fulfill his duties as State Attorney General, he is not a federal official and therefore, has no jurisdiction or enforcement authority over tribal land or tribal gaming operations," the tribe said. AL.com (Alabama) (2/20)

LOL...that's the casino where I got my only slot jackpot, so I have fond memories of it.
It was a "Texas Tea" machine, but technically I covered something like 22 spots on a random bingo card in ~48 calls, which awarded me a $200 jackpot.
Of course, this means you all should stay away anyway because video poker is also Class II. I would play for pennies, hold my garbage cards, and root for the "genie" to appear to magically change my hand to a winner! lol

He is referring to "Native Americans", which are historically called "Indians" in America because Christopher Columbus originally thought he was in India when he reached America. He is not referring to Indians from the country of India.
And he doesn't trust "Native Americans" possibly because their casinos are generally less regulated than casinos that are state-regulated. It also might have been a racist joke.

Edog doesn't trust native Americans, because he is oneand now has a new weird sense of humour. I call myself part American Indian, as opposed to east Indian, because I like the history of that disoriented explorer, Columbus. Dave
