Nice. That sounds like fun.
Back in the day, say early to late 60's, this place
also was the only place to play slot machines on 95.
The Casino was the building in front of the first
sovenier shop. It was kinda neat as a kid of 12 with
the family and reading all of the signs that led to and from
the place.

A great marketing tool at the time. The most effective billboard
campaign I ever saw.

Today, it is a relic of things past. Something to
make fun of apparently by someone who did not
bother to look into the history of things odd, and out of
the ordinary. Pitty.
