Whitmer Says Casinos and Bowling Alleys Can Open but Not Indoor Dining.

Michigan's casinos, movie theaters, bowling alleys and similar venues will be allowed to reopen on Monday, with some restrictions in place, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer announced Friday.

Indoor dining will remain banned, at least through Jan. 15.

State health department orders banning in-person classes, indoor dining and many business operations were implemented in November and extended earlier this month, but were set to expire Sunday.

The order deems casinos, bowling alleys, bingo halls, gun ranges and similar venues as "Lower-risk recreational facilities." Up to six people from the same household will be allowed to enter these facilities, as long as they wear masks, stay away from other groups and do not consume food or beverages.

These venues are not allowed to operate concessions; Gordon and others have said the necessity to remove a mask in order to eat makes the activity too risky to do inside around others.

How can you keep indoor dining closed for another month but allow CASINOS to open up? Movie theaters don't make money from ticket sales they make money from SELLING CONCESSIONS like popcorn and raisinettes.

This order tells these industries to stop whining and allows them to open their doors but keeps them actually trying to make up lost ground financially.
