A few days ago while playing at the circular bar at the entrance to the
Casino of the Wind a fellow sat down a few seats away from me and ordered a
draft beer. He was playing VP. When he ordered his third the bartender
informed him there is a new policy of two drinks per hour.
I can't imagine how a bartender can keep track on a busy weekend.
Our local paper (Waterbury, CT) had an article about the policy change.
It was instituted because of the recent fatality of Rte 395 involving a
sailor who was intoxicated (apparently from spending the evening drinking at
Mohegan Sun) that hit a van and killed one of the passengers. According to
the paper, this applies to the entire casino. I can't imagine how a
cocktail waitress is going to remember who got served two drinks in an hour, plus
what's to stop the drinker from moving to a different section and ordering
more drinks. I would think the Sun would be sending servers to alcohol
awareness programs so they know when to shut someone off.
