hey Ron, I heard a couple theories out here also. One was the Gaming Comm. wants them destroyed but doesn't do it so they leave it up to the casinos to get rid of them themselves. Also, isn't it supposed to be good luck for the casino to bury them in the footers etc for the existing casino or the next one? Just stuff I have heard here or on the job. I'm still waiting to find a motherlode on one of these Strip joints someday
