Don't forget the free drinks while you were gambling.

I can recall a steady flow of Crown Royal/Cokes while in the casino, as long as I kept the server happy with an occasional tip.

I went through Laughlin in 82 (I think) and I'll never forget going into a combo counter (like the old woolworths)/diner w/small tables and chairs/bar establishment that had a bank of slots in the middle of the floor

I remember very few people being there (maybe 10 or 11 AM .. again, I forget) ... and having a burger and coke, glanced around at the few characters in the place .... Indian/Cowboy types ... older (55+) and grizzled


I have no idea what it was called ... I was travelling and hungry .... ate and left


Nice memory
