Physical casinos are not very popular with the younger people. The older generation want to go out and interact with other people, while most of the younger people stay glued to their smartphones and laptops, and rarely interact with anyone other than machines. Now coming to cock fighting, it is something that can't be done online. This tradition is thousands of years old, and those who don't know about it should not be critical about it.
The young generation rarely interacts with others except for their friends because they are too busy with their gadget. It is not just in cockfighting, but it happens in other traditional gambling games which have a place in a local city.
It is the risk of technology growth, and if the young generation is not taught about local culture, so when they grow up, they don't know about that. Many others of local culture that has been forgetting by the young generation and that is not just about traditional gambling.

Different countries have different mindsets, here it doesn't matter old or young, only a few people believe in this pandemic, most of them think that Coronavirus is nothing. So that most of them are still doing cockfighting in hidden places. Apart from that, online betting with Cockfighting is very different, they cannot play this kind of bet online. To this day, I have never seen any online cockfighting bet found (CMIIW).
People who don't believe this pandemic will see it is real once they got infect, and they will regret it because they underestimate the virus. Usually, in some city which cockfighting is popular, people will play in hidden places, but that will not safe for them if they don't apply the health protocols from the government. But it seems, people don't care about health protocols. They don't' use social distance.
