    It Happened Today on May 16th in the U.P.

    First and foremost. I know there is a certain person who has been faithfully checking this forum to find out when the snow is gone in my yard. To put his mind at rest I will say it happened today. The last of winter's snow disappeared from my yard today.

    Also today on May 16th the first Indian casino in the U.P. has reopened. There isn't much news at all on the reopening except some posts on their Facebook page and even those are few and far in between. Here is what you can expect the new normal to be like, and right now there are no table games open.

    Here are some posts from Facebook on what it was like.

    We went tonight and it was packed. People would get up from a machine and someone would set right down. There was no cleaning of the machines and no wipes to clean them. I think a better job could have been done.

    Just left there because they had no money in any of the ATM'S. the line to the cashier cage was absolutely ridiculous. They don't have the money to pay people. Great way to open back up. Great planning on their part. Very displeased

    Just read some more posts on Island casino's Facebook page. Looks like pretty much a free for all. Here is from one post.

    My brother went yesterday and said the only differences between pre-COVID19 and post-COVID19 were: temp checks at the door, masks & no smoking. He said he never saw anyone cleaning machines, never saw ppl walking around enforcing the 6’ social distancing rule and there were less chairs but ppl just grabbed a chair and sat wherever they wanted. He didn’t care that they didn’t enforce anything but Inwas surprised by their lack of enforcement.

    Folks are coming from as far away as Madison, WI. All the new cases of covid in the U.P. in the last couple of days came from this area that is near this casino. Coincidence? I don't know.
