AS A NEWER MEMBER, (8774) I JUST WANTED TO THANK EVERYONE FOR AN AMAZING 25TH CONVENTION. I FIRST JOINED A FEW MONTHS BEFORE THE LAST SHOW AND ATTENDED LAST YEARS 24TH CONVENTION BY MYSELF AND HAD A BLAST.
THIS YEAR, MY WIFE AND SON DECIDED TO MAKE THE TRIP WITH ME AND THEY BOTH REALLY LOVED THE CONVENTION AS WELL AS THE SOUTHPOINT HOTEL. MY SON HAD 9 MILKSHAKES FROM STEAK & SHAKE DURING OUR 5 DAYS AND HE WOULD HAVE HAD A FEW MORE IF WE HAD LET HIM!
THE CONVENTION ROOM WAS PERFECT!! IS WAS GREAT TO HAVE THE BATHROOMS & SNACK BAR INSIDE THE CONVENTION ROOM. THE LOADING DOCK LOCATED NEAR THE BACK CONVENTION FLOOR DOORS AND THE LARGE AMOUNT OF TABLES & CHAIRS NEXT TO THE SNACK BAR WERE ALSO PERFECT. IT WAS ALSO VERY NICE TO CHARGE THE FOOD & DRINKS TO MY SOUTHPOINT ROOM!!
I OFTEN SAT AT THE TABLES AT THE TOP OF THE ESCALATOR TO PEOPLE WATCH AND OBSERVED A DECENT AMOUNT OF HAPPY FIRST TIMERS ATTENDING THE CONVENTION. I OBSERVED THE CIGARMAN DOUG KILL OFF A FEW CIGARS THERE AS WELL!!
EVERYONE HAS ALWAYS BEEN BEYOND NICE AND TRULY LOVES CASINO CHIPS & SHARING THEIR AMAZING KNOWLEDGE OF OUR GREAT HOBBY. MY WIFE EVEN MADE SEVERAL COMMENTS ABOUT HOW NICE EVERYONE WAS!
INITIALLY, I WAS A BIT HESITANT ABOUT JOINING THE CLUB BECAUSE I KNOW ALMOST NOTHING ABOUT THIS HOBBY AND FELT A BIT LIKE AN OUTSIDER JUMPING INTO A NEW COMFORT ZONE. BUT, I'M VERY GLAD I DID AND WISHED I HAD JOINED SOONER.
THERE WAS SO MUCH EFFORT AND PLANNING AND VOLUNTEERING THAT GOES INTO A LARGE SCALE SHOW LIKE THIS. I WAS IMPRESSED BY THE DEDICATION OF THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THIS CHIP CLUB.
I HAVE TO SAY, I FELT SAD TO SEE THIS CONVENTION END. I FEEL THE SAME HORRIBLE FEELING AFTER WATCHING THE SUPERBOWL COME TO AN END & I HAVE TO WAIT MONTHS TO SEE THE NEXT FOOTBALL SEASON START.
AT LEAST WE STILL HAVE THE CHIP BOARD...... THANK YOU DAVID SPRAGG!!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🍻🍻
