I started following the BC Slots channel on YouTube about a month ago and I have to admit I now understand the appeal.
To see that a major casino in Vegas was partnering with someone who records himself playing slot machines was surprising to me, given what I know about casino marketing and security. A recent one had a link to a story in the Las Vegas Review-Journal that I thought was super interesting: The Plaza downtown was opening an area of their slot floor dedicated to a YouTuber named Brian Christopher.Īs a nerd, I’m normally pretty open to new gaming trends, but I never fully understood the desire to watch other people play video games on Twitch (and other services). I keep in touch with a number of my former colleagues and suppliers and get an occasional industry newsletter in my inbox from time to time. Being an old person, I still visit casinos on a regular basis (more on that age demographic thing later). It seems hard to believe, but I’ve now been out of the casino industry almost six years.
