It was reported last week that Gulfstream was losing much $$$ on their slots. That was the tip-off that something was seriously amiss at that facility. Employee theft is a huge problem.

Thought I had read that the avg take from these machines at GP was in the neighborhood of 70.00 a day.... subtract the million bucks a month of comped "funny money" and they are probably operating close to zero net...
