Bleak Video of Old People Playing Slots Inspires Twitter Meme Excellence
Most casinos are chaotic and depressing places. The free booze, cool temperatures, and desperation combine to create a place that can inspire excitement, but more often misery and disappointment. My times at casinos have started with optimism, the truth is that I have no freaking idea what I'm doing, and I usually walk away with the most minor of gains or break even. It's underwhelming and sometimes unsettling. But it's always the atmosphere that leaves me the most spooked.
TikToker @nlwestfall shared some proof of this spookiness last week when they shared a video of geriatrics furiously playing slots in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The pre-Covid look at casino vibes is definitely haunting, but we doubt they expected the video to go viral. And go viral it did, thanks to Twitter user @xooset, who shared it to the bird app.

Some people viewed the video in a pretty literal light, and decided to share their opinions on both the video and casino culture in general, or straight up mock the gamblers.

Thankfully, other people have approached the video with a more creative approach, using it as a caption for a reaction meme. These are the kinds of memes we prefer.
