[vpFREE] Re: LVRJ: Affinity Gaming to sell three Northern Nevada casinos

 

OK- I know I am missing something way too obvious, but I am thinking there are four casinos in Northern Nevada? Verdi-check, Dayton-check, Reno? Sands and Rail City.

[vpFREE] XVP Jersey Boys comp

 

Jean Scott's Frugal Vegas LVA BLOG - 30 AUG 2012

"September Vegas Promotions"

http://jscott.lvablog.com/?p=2298

Five years ago I gave Harrah's some kudos when a couple of their hosts gave me some super service right after I got out of the hospital. Perhaps they are not the evil empire after all..........
 
Aug 27th a friend and I flew into Las Vegas and our first stop was the Flamingo box office. I had read here that the free show a month for diamond card holders had been reinstated.  Asked for the list and lo and behold the bottom one was Penn & Teller!! And it was not a 7 stars perk. Got tickets for the next night, enjoyed it.
Wednesday night we are watching the Ranger's game at the Harrah's diamond lounge bar, overhear bartender telling someone that there is a special ending 8/31 for diamond card holders, a comp to see the Jersey Boys. I told him we saw Penn & Teller last night, wish we had known. Bartender must have read Max Rubin's Comp City as he suggested we ask at the box office, you are probably out of luck but it never hurts to ask!
So we go to the Harrah's box office, tell the woman there we heard there is a special........... She punches computer buttons, says sorry, you used the comp last night. We pleaded, she said there was nothing she could do but suggested we go back to the Flamingo box office and ask for the supervisor. So off to the Flamingo we go, same woman that gave me the voucher to Penn $ Teller behind the counter. We repeat the story, she picks up the phone and says "She'll be right down."
 
A couple of minutes later the supervisor walks in, we repeat our sad story, my friend later told me me he thought our chances went up when she said "She (meaning the other rep standing beside her looking unhappy) should have told you" I tried the nice guy approach, said I was willing to give up my September free tickets, did not want to get anyone in trouble ad nauseum.
On a personal note, I thought our chances went way up when she said as she filled out the voucher "Besides I think you're kinda cute"
We thought the show the next night at the Paris was great, but they should delete the unnecessary bad language.

[vpFREE] Re: Boulder Station

 

Also, it's one of the few places still offering full pay KBJW. (Sometimes --- usually when I've been over-served --- I like to stand
next to one of those KBJW machines and hope that a couple of pierced dudes in a baseball caps with Dudley DoRight brims happen by, enabling me to mutter these song lyrics to myself: "Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right ...)
