What Happens In Jersey...

There was midriff everywhere at Nikki Beach the other night.

Women dancing on tables. Waitresses in tank tops that would've been tight fits for them in junior high. And a belly dancer who jiggled and balanced a sword on various body parts.

The preview party at Resorts Atlantic City's new beach bar signaled the unofficial start of a summer that promises more sex appeal than ever.

The billboards greeting gamblers say it all: buxom vixens, brunettes in string bikinis and close-ups of women's backsides. Donald Trump has Pamela Anderson advertising a Quarter Million Dollar Giveaway. And a seemingly topless blonde holding an apple next to the words "Forbidden Fruit" is the pitchwoman for Caesars' Bacchanal restaurant.

Yes, after more than a quarter-century of gambling, Atlantic City is frantically changing its image.

The 12 casinos no longer want families, or even the busloads of blue-haired ladies. Instead, they're desperately seeking baby boomers, or better yet, their offspring. And taking a cue from Las Vegas, Atlantic City has finally realized that sex sells.
