(AP) – Soon it might be more difficult to concentrate on the cards at one Atlantic City casino. The Tropicana Casino and Resort is creating a new "party pit" near its Rumba Lounge nightclub where female blackjack and roulette dealers will wear bustiers and stockings, reports the AP. The casino is hiring "nice-looking" dealers to work the six blackjack and two roulette tables, which will debut over the July 4th weekend. The racy uniforms come on the heels of some revealing flapper costumes that have already generated two lawsuits for Resorts Casino Hotel.
