Living in the Nutmeg State, one of the great pleasures is our resort casinos. I've never thought of myself as a big gambler, but you don't have to be one to enjoy a night at Mohegan Sun or Foxwoods. My experiences at these venues have been more about entertainment than rolling the dice. Both casinos excel at attracting A-list talent throughout the year.

I even got to eat in the staff cafeteria, which offers every kind of food imaginable and could easily feed a small army from what I could see.
