All around the Encore casino (like the city of Everett), everything's shutting down to Covid-19. Thank goodness, the casino has thermometer guns to point at incoming customers, so they can keep the money rolling in, even if they have to shut down the buffets and shows.

A shame they didn't have those in place the other day when a Utah Jazz player who turned out to be infected (no, not the microphone toucher, the other one) rolled in for a little of that famed Everett hospitality.
