twenty twenty two, but claimed it was self defense. The
trial lasted for three days and wrapped up very quickly
with a verdict. They handed it to the judge to read,
and everybody was on the edge of their seat, and
the judge flubbed the verdict. He said guilty, meant to
(01:56):
say not guilty on all counts.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Oh, that's given somebody a real heart attack.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Apparently a juror chimed in and corrected him, and he

Vegas has approved mandatory jail time for anybody who claps
in a casino. City of Las Vegas approving mandatory jail
time for anybody who claps in a casino. Here's the
news story out of Las Vegas, Nevada. In a move
that has stunned on tourists and regulars, like Las Vegas,
casinos have officially banned clapping on gaming floors after one
(03:51):
particularly round of applause caused a pit boss to mistakenly
approve a one dollar bet as one hundred thousand dollars.
WHOA says the incident unfolded at the Mirage Casino last
weekend when a player hit blackjack.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Hit blackjack.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Normally, the wind would have earned him just a few dollars,
but I meant the chaos of clapping and cheering from
nearby tables. The distracted pit boss misread the wager slip,
allowing the stun gambler to walk out of the casino
with a six figure payout dail. The new rule goes
into effect immediately with signs posted across casinos that says
(04:26):
no clapping beyond this point. If you are clapping a casino, apparently,
you could face up to a year in prison and
a forty thousand dollars five.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Come buy a real new story or a fake news story.
That is a fake news story. However, I do believe
that that guy messed up. I bet he got fired.

You can't do that to everybody. That's your fault, bro,
not everybody's fault. I'm screaming.

story or a fake new story.

and everyone getting really mad about it, and then other
casinos are like, ah man, we're not having that.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
Happen to us.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
People online were sharing the story like crazy, very upset
because imagine going to Vegas and you win money and
you're just to sit there like you can't do that.
That's a fake news story that went viral this week.
Las Vegas is not banning clapping.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Could you imagine their jails would be so full because
of everybody that's clapping or screaming because they just lost
so much money.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
That guy would have gotten fired. I have it it's
real news or fake news?

look generous because they've introduced a new subscription plan for
their electric cars where you're forced to pay extra if

own car back from Volkswagen. Right now, it's only happening
(06:07):
in the UK, but it will come to America soon.
