The Worst Sports Book in Las Vegas

Here's something we don't understand. Why would anyone place a bet at the Luxor Las Vegas sports book?  I think they've taken this Egyptian pyramid theme too far as it feels like you're actually entombed and the technology is from 3000 BC. They still have to write their lines with dry erase marker on a whiteboard. There's better technology at the local bookie in your hometown. The one saving grace could be that they have the best odds in Vegas -- but they don't. 18-1 for the Raiders to win the Super Bowl?

Either the guy setting the lines is a personal friend of Al Davis or he is a huge Randy Moss fan.

What's amusing is that the sports book is half smoking and half non-smoking.  It's almost impossible to tell which side is which because the entire place is cramped and smells like smoke.

Thank God they don't serve food as it'd be tough to stomach anything here.
