Offline casinos are certainly interesting, you can meet new people who might be your friends or girlfriends. but in this pandemic period, people are afraid to be there, this virus is very contagious, it is much better to play online gambling during this pandemic while hoping this will all end.
I think you're right - I'd be very cautious due to Covid and especially of STDs, btw do you know how any Offline casinos have under 5% House edge?
Btw you can go to the park, to the lake, museums, gamers gatherings, etc. Making contacts in casinos mostly with addicted gamblers is over my league tbh, gl to you for the meme, you made my day.
