Never heard of sanctioned gambling in Mexico (until the last couple of years) and wanted to see if these were real. Very real. A national event held every year since 1828, uaually in the spring.

Located in the main fair venue are an assortment of sponsored stands and mechanical games, as well as stages where various concerts and theater plays are performed. The livestock fair and the charreadas still remain an important part of the celebration. Parties where traditional Mexican music is played (tamboras) are also celebrated on the streets of Aguascalientes. Finally, a casino is licensed in downtown Aguascalientes just for the occasion.

Nice find. I wonder what kind of chips they are using these days?
