I'm sure that you (and others) can remember back when some said that the old Aladdin was a dump.
I remember when some said that Tropicana was a dump.
I remember when the club was even considering holding the convention in a huge tent, outside, in the Frontier parking lot!
And now some say that the Riviera is a dump!

Hopefully, 15-20 years from now, folks will be looking back at the Riviera experience the same way you and I fondly remember the old Aladdin and Tropicana. It makes no difference at what hotel the annual convention is held. The important thing to remember should be that one WAS/IS held every year.
