Las Vegas Bar Giving Away a Gun

I live in Las Vegas an found something on the news particulary odd. There are 3 O'Aces Bar & Grills giving away a unknown Smith & Wesson handgun for 2 Royal Flushes on video poker. You do have to have a background check "if" you win.

This kind of reminds me of when did the world ever go fucking insane but on the other hand it can be worth it in one of the highest crime rates in the cities of US.
