| - Hum ... The Casino de Montréal is a magnificent building, a real architectural jewel which, in my opinion, is badly located, but that's another debate.
I went there on a Thursday afternoon to attend the Bulles & Whiskey Festival which was taking place at the Cabaret. To get there, I had to cross the Casino on several floors, and let's say that this walk kinda cut my motivation in half.
From the entrance what struck me was hum ... Why are there zombies, sorry people on slot machines at this time of the day? I found it really sad, you could clearly see that they were there by addiction, it surely did not make me want to party on the above floors.
I probably will not be going back soon, as I did not like the contrast between the magnificence of the building and the people stuck in their addiction, but it's something to visit at least once in a lifetime.
