Found in Vegas
At a blackjack table at the Stratosphere, a 1967 (40% silver) Kennedy
Half Dollar. ;-) Been absent from the group (and my home's Xmas preparations!) for a week and a half, just back yesterday. Almost all the slots I saw in Vegas are offering scrip as payout, so perhaps the famous casino coin abuse will slow in future. Brought back 5 Kennedy's plus the silver one, one of which was tendered as change in a 7-11! Definitely not a thing that happens here. As to the inevitable 'how'd you do?' question....I won enough to meet all the trip expenses, so Vegas and back for free, with all meals, travel, tips and purchases equaled by table winnings. I have to confess that's a first for me! I've made money on my gaming poke before, but never enough to cover the trip. ;-) Course, since I'm there working an event, my expenses are not huge anyway, and there is a paycheck attached to the whole deal. ;-) No Westward Journey nickels, and most of the Half's I saw were 2001. Penny slots, which I had never noticed before, and did not take time to check out. Very busy next few days, so Happy Holidays, Everyone! in case I don't check back in soon. And Cheng Yinghua defeated David Zhuang 4 games to 2 in the Men's Final. ;-) Alan '2004 US National Table Tennis Championships' |

Welcome back.
I had a disturbing vision of you going around cashing out the slots to search through the coins. |
