Term based on the myth that Vegas hotels pump extra oxygen into their casinos to keep people awake, boost alcohol's effects, etc. etc. This is false, and would be highly illegal if true. Not to mention what would happen if someone lit a cigarette.
The "rush" that many people feel when entering a casino is really a combination of overstimulation (flashing lights, noise, excitement) and sudden exposure to lower temperatures; though they aren't allowed to pump oxygen in, some casinos keep temperatures lower than normal to help keep people awake and alert, spending more money rather than returning to their rooms.
Although it's based on false information, the term is not obsolete; it can also refer to the casino's atmosphere of excitement and risk.

Word to describe a person found in a casino that cannot afford to be there. Casino rats smell like a mixture of coffee and stale smoke and are usually wearing dirty, dingy clothing to go with their filthy hands and hair. Casino rats generally chain smoke and are frequently seen telling sob stories to random casino patrons and then asking them for money and cigarettes. They can be seen at the casino just about every day of the week and can easily be picked out when they are observed walking around aimlessly looking at the floor for dropped money, tickets, or casino chips.
That lady is a real casino rat. Every time I have been at the casino she was there wearing the same stinky clothes harassing other people for handouts.
