Eventually I got a $1 Hot Stamped Silver Saddle
In Response To: Re: Silver Saddle closed. ()

Might have bought it from you, Roger Herman - or else I found it for sale or trade at either a Club Convention (not this recent one, so the 2014 or 2015 one) or perhaps at the Arizona Charlie's Super Show Casinorama whatever it is now titled. So the chipping story had a happy ending of sorts.

Yes, I remember the story about early sales, something similar to the Longhorn. The casino was okay with selling a few new chips, at first, then droves of people came in and both the Silver Sad & Longhorn feared they were losing too many of their nice new gaming pieces. By the time I could get to Las Vegas to try for myself, it was "No sales to collectors!" at the Silver Saddle. (I did manage to score some $1 Longhorns last year!)

Yes, definitely David Spragg's fault, he has such a guilty-looking face. No, I wasn't frisked for guns at the Silver Saddle. Good thing too, they might have found one.
