When Kenny Rogers was in a low spot in his career, you could sit at the bar in the Golden Nugget and hear him sing that song for free.

His current gig is an advertising campaign for Barona Casino (San Diego area Indian joint). The spots start with a limo pulling up in front of the casino, and a closeup of his snakeskin cowboy boots as he gets out.
He sings a song extolling the joys of Barona (a "happy place" where they "treat you like family"), while we are treated to shots of players who appear to be on laughing gas. Each spot ends with him pointing at the camera and asking, "Barona Casino - are you in?"
These spots are in heavy rotation on all the local TV stations (radio spots, too). It is almost enough to make one gag. :-P
On the blackjack tables, in every betting circle the question is printed, "Are you in?"
I guess he hasn't been selling much chicken lately.
