When Horseshoe dropped NABC from draft sales (it took two frigging years to navigate the casino bureaucracy and get those beers pouring in the first place), local media completely ignored the story.
Well, maybe I should have told someone in local media, but by that point I really wasn't up to giving a damn.
Can we be truthful?
Any casino in the world is about one thing, and one thing alone: Gambling, and the profits to be derived from it.
The rest, whether NABC Black & Blue Grass or Ku Klux Kobbler, is secondary. That any benefit whatever to the community is accrued through the offerings of the Foundation results from indirect taxation on casino patrons, when local government refuses to do the deed itself.
Irony. How very elusive hereabouts.

Rumor has it Guy Fieri might be available...(and he likes to visit Louisville for Derby).
Last week, of course, a deposition leaked in which Deen admitted to casually dropping n-bombs and other racist behavior.
