I thought the MGM has a large base of foreign regulars, I also think the Venetian and possibly a few other casinos are building casinos in other countries. That 99% figure is way off in my opinion.

Las Vegas casinos do have a lot of foreigners playing, especially from Asia. However, these players still represent a very, very small percentage of the population.

Wynn and Sands have built casinos in Macau. The Venetian is also being built in Macau. Plus, the Sands is building in Singapore.

That being said, in countries with large populations like Indonesia and India, for instance, they have absolutely zero exposure to US brand names as far as casinos are concerned. Even in Thailand, with 60 milllion people, I can absolutely guarantee that 99.9 percent of the population could not name a single casino in Vegas, including Caesar’s Palace.

The most likely name in Asia that would be offered up as the name of any casino outside Asia, believe it or not, would be Ladbrokes – and they don’t operate land-based casinos.
