Casino indeed. People: anyone have connections with a Vegas Hotels? It may require some marketing genius, but just imagine if someplace like the Bellagio warmed up to these Black Beauties. Hell, we might not only have chips, but our own BLACKCOIN SLOT MACHINES!
First person with an angle on this, I suggest you run with it. Make some calls & get on a flight to LV tonight. BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE DOES!
LOL! Well, as someone who lives here (and actually is a 40 year native of the Vegas valley) I can tell you that's never going to happen. Not unless BC represents about 30 Billion USD in market cap. All casinos, but especially premier properties like the Wynn, Bellagio, Caesars Palace, etc. spend huge amounts of money and marketing to make sure they're sharing the spotlight with no one. Now if we get to the point that someone like myself with just a few 100K worth of BC represents what
we consider a whale (and in this city, you get that distinction only after dropping $500K+ in a single night on the tables)... I'll be more than happy to develop a team and make some presentations.
As it is, our 'brand' ranks about 5,000,000 places
below Monster (drinks or cables you take your pick), Sony, Nike, Gucci, etc... and even
they are only allowed to co-brand or advertise on things like the monorail, special events, or retail outlets in very specific areas. Everything else will always have
only the property logo/name.
I'm not saying it can't ever happen, and I'm certainly not saying I wouldn't love it... but in this town even a decent sized
bar or convenience store pulls in 10-15% of BC's entire market cap every month on gaming (I have a friend with a 7-Eleven franchise who averages about $18K/mo just on 6 video poker machines).
By way of contrast Bellagio makes slightly more than BC's market cap in a 24hr period.
... All that being said, I do like the way you think - we're just not quite to that level yet. And you will only get
one change in that market... if you're lucky.
