In the early 60's I played BJ at Tahoe/ Harrahs. I Then we played with real silver dollars, I was sitting next to a very old Indian, he had worked for years cutting The big trees on the mountain behind Stateline. He told me I was putting my silver dollar bet's on the table wrong. Said never put the coin down with the wings up, because they will fly away. For 53 years I always put any coins with feathers down correctly when buying and paying any item. Crazy how we remember things. I have so many great memories at the Lake. Love your pictures and history keep em coming. Love the picture on the young boy and girl standing on their toes, looking at parents inside playing slots hoping they would win. Priceless.
