Last Casino Sketch (and whatever misc. ended up on this page):
Soo, at the top is a note from the Project H Roadshow that came to town which was fun. I swear I didn't do this sketch during the lecture. I double super swear.
Right then, so the impetus of this idea was accepting that for a casino to maximize profit it had to be insular and a spectacle. Therefore the idea is to utilize an aircraft carrier that is being retired (Possibly the USS Enterprise when the USS Gerald R. Ford - CVN-78- comes into service which could mean Star Trek Convention tie ins!), park the sucker on the international boundary between Canada and United States and serve it with some awesome ferries (Similar to the Jet Express or some hovercraft ferry like you would find in the English Channel) that could offer gambling cruises. The possibility would then exist for completing the much bantered about Port Stanley - Cleveland Lake Erie Ferry as well as create a service station for a Lake Erie Windfarm. The marketing potential is pretty amazing. Granted the carrier would have to undergo some tremendous overhaul to make it amenable to tourist and guests but I am guessing that the flight decks would house the public areas and gambling space, the engine/reactor berths could house the entertainment areas and service/living quarters could be scraped out of the remaining areas.
Heck, something like this would get me to visit. Assume a 30 minute ferry trip on a luxurious ferry boat to have dinner at a 4 star restaurant in the middle of Lake Erie that is being run from its own windfarm. How does that not sound amazing? It would have it's very own docks for private boaters to tie up to and could even act as a Coast Guard station that serves the shipping lanes and surrounding ports. A real floating island/casino resort. With Star Trek tie in.
And that is the end of my sketches on this topic.
