It's a good thing you responded. If you didn't respond, they probably would have escalated. In a casino you need to be aware of the people around you at all times, and make sure nobody follows you to your room or your car or wherever. An old trick that works is to carry a heavy purse, with a brick inside, you can use that to clobber your assailant if you have to. Of course pepper spray or a concealed weapons permit also work well in a situation that is obvious from a legal standpoint.

I am a woman, 70 yrs old, playing slots, usually with other people around me. A young mail will come up behind me, tap my shoulder several times and run off. The one young man kept touching me and telling me that he simply wanted me to enjoy my game while his friends were in hysterics nearby. This has happened to me about 3 times and is more than just a little disconcerting. I hope it never happens again, but if it does, I will report it to security, I do not know what they can do. It is such a strange thing, and they act totally innocent, like they are just being friendly, but being touched by a stranger is not appropriate. I would love to know if this is some sort of a silly "game" and if other women (or men) have had similar incidents.
