While gambling at Prairie Meadows Casino, Troy Blackford became angry and smashed a slot machine. He was banned from the premises. Despite the ban, he later gambled at the casino and won $9,387. When he tried to collect his winnings, the casino refused to pay. Blackford filed a suit for breach of contract, arguing that he and the casino had a contract because he accepted its offer to gamble. Did the casino and Blackford have a contract

Answer:

There is no contract, he has been banned for life

Step-by-step explanation:

Troy and the casino had no contract. Troy black Ford had no business going back to gamble in the casino because he had already been banned for life for destroying a slot machine. So except this ban had been lifted by prairie meadows, there was no way he could argue that he had a contract and then win the case. Prairie meadows made him no offers so as a result there could be no contract.
