Is it alright to visit a palm reader at a fairground?

[DL82]

If this is done as a light-hearted entertainment, and not a genuine attempt to predict the future, is it acceptable to visit palm readers or fortune tellers at fairgrounds? These kinds of entertainment are not taken seriously by visitors, and often not even taken seriously by the ‘fortune tellers’ themselves, who are just making a living and sometimes continuing their traditional traveller culture. Is there really any harm in it?
