Plaintiff Caruso was gambling at the Foxwoods Casino, which was owned by defendant Mashantucket Pequot Gaming Enterprise. When he went to use the restroom, Caruso noticed an attendant holding a mop in his hand. Almost immediately thereafter, Caruso slipped and fell on the floor in an area that had just been mopped. To gain compensation for the injuries he suffered from the fall, he sued the casino for negligence for failing to place warning signs or cones around the justmopped area. The casino argued that contributory negligence on the part of Caruso in failing to pay attention to his surroundings in light of the obviousness of the danger should bar him from recovering.

How do you believe the court ruled in this case and why?
