Apparently Blackpool was gunning to become the Las Vegas of Britain with the construction of the new Super Casino, now it was going to struggle to be that.
Las Vegas, some of the greatest hotels in the world where they have a volcano that goes off every 15 minutes.
Blackpool, some of the most disappointing B&B's I've ever seen where the hot water goes off every 15 minutes.
Thank you I'll be here all week.

Yeah the idea in gambling is at the end of it you exchange your chips for cash, in Blackpool it's the other way round.
I mean Blackpool is such a crap place, it's the one city in the world where I've got clamidia from fish and chips.
If the casino had gone ahead Blackpool would have gained a quick reputation as the city where you can win £100,000 AND have it mugged off you all in one night.
