The old ParaDice club was at 1200 W. Washington, East Peoria. I think it's the modern riverboat casino that's docked at Blackjack Dr.
The family claims that when the casino came to town, they liked the name and offered to pay Rafool for the rights, but he was never actually paid. By that time the place was an ordinary lounge with no gambling.
The chips you'll find are the hearts & rectangles in pink, red, and green, and the beige T molds with inserts. Also the black "JR" T molds, and the rare "GLEE CLUB".
