For someone that doesn't go often or just uses it for entertainment, it probably isn't a big deal. But think about the guy that is going 5 or 6 days a week. The kind of guy that actually bets real money and pays for the product. He is out over $1,000 in admission for the year before he makes his first bet. This is on top of the 20% takeout he must overcome. You think they could at least hand out some free lube.
