Katie, Dick,
I was in Vegas in Jan. 99 with my oldest son (then 7) and chip collecting partner, Chris for the AZ Charlie's show. We walked from Circus Circus to NY,NY gathering any chips that we needed along the way.

When we stopped at Bellagio, we made it all the way to the cage to pick up chips. Chris stood off to the side of the cage area, as we already knew he couldn't be there. While I'm standing in line, a security guard comes up to me and says, "Is that your kid?" I said yes, and he says we have to leave "Right Now!" As I was next in line, I told him if I could just get a few chips we would be leaving shortly. He tells me "No, you gotta go now." As he is talking to me, I am talking to the guy at the cage. I get my chips and Chris and I beat a hasty retreat.

Anyway, I got the chips, and Chris got a laugh from watching his old man trying to stall for time! Just like him at bed time! <g>

Hope you have a great time, Katie
