Hello all,
Not much new to report. No trips recently but lots of online activities. Here's a couple of things that have passed by my email and the local news.
Ameristar Blackhawk Colorado Casino Temporarily closes
The Ameristar Blackhawk Casino never opened Friday Aug 24th, 2007 due to damage that had occurred during construction blasting for the new Hotel and Casino expansion project. As reported by 9 news in Denver Colorado and covered in The Rocky Mountain Newspaper (Video and Newspaper article)
No update on Saturday morning as I write this but reports were that blasting for the new hotel caused the sprinkler system to flood office areas of the casino. No areas of the casino floor were effected but for safety reasons they decided not to open. Plans were to reopen by Saturday.
No one was injured, which I'm happy for but i guess the one good thing that has come from this (In my gambler mentality) is that the news report stated that the hotel and casino expansion would be completed in 2009. Ive been looking for an opening date and I guess we kind of have one now.......
Email from WMS Gaming
Yesterday I received an email from WMS Gaming about a new sweepstakes they are running in conjunction with the new MONOPOLY™ Super Money Grab® slot machines.
The Grand Prize is a trip for two to Las Vegas. Plus, there are 50 instant-winners a day.
Heres the link to the Sweepstakes Sign up. If anyone wins a prize, please feel free to email me or add a comment to the post.
Well thats all I have for now,
Good Luck and Happy Gaming,
J

Cool blog! I'm inexperienced when it comes to gambling myself, but I'm a recent local to Las Vegas and the integration of gambling into the lives of "Nevadans" is astonishing. I'm fascinated! Can't wait to keep up with your blog and maybe get a taste for the hobby itself. ;)
