Is it really a successful sports team business model to base it on the idea that people might show up if you give away tickets for free?

You seem to be missing the point. It's not "free" if the seats were bought and paid for by the casinos.
Really don't see why you're having such a difficult time with this. There are franchises all over the US that struggle to sell seats for the majority of their games. Between the Casino comps and tourists, I think it easily makes this market more viable than some of the other American models. Regardless of your doubts, people with a lot of money seem to think it's a good idea and that the ball is in motion.
