MGM is also giving guests masks to wear free of charge. 'Although we sanitize regularly we also encourage guests to sanitize their own slot machines before and after each use,' Tsai said.
Two hundred sanitizing stations are scattered throughout. Smoking is not allowed inside.Īnd to promote physical distancing a lot of the slot machines have been disabled and plexiglass barriers have been installed at many of the table games. The restaurants inside offer digital menus and virtual waitlists. 'I'm so happy to just be able to do something that took me out of the reality that we're in and just change life and give us a good feeling,' Ismail said.
Which didn't seem to be a dealbreaker for the guests there Friday. Officials say MGM Grand's gaming floor, including slots, table games and the BetMGM Sportsbook are all open but poker isn't available during this first reopening phase. 'The key is everyone wearing a mask and social distancing,' another guest Gaz Ismail said. 'I don't feel safe really anywhere but you put the mask on and the gloves and it's the best you can do,' one guest who did not wish to share their name told FOX 2.
