deal when he added the Primm,Nv. three casinos for a huge price. MGM didn't want the Primm properties, wanted his interest in NY. NY. Then MGM sold the Primm casinos to Terribles, maybe a third owner? with the So Cal casinos opening Primm became a dump, as it is today. Gary Primm, son of Ernie Primm, loved roller coasters so Buffalo Bills has one and NY NY has one. He designed both casinos. I went to SMHS with Gary, and when 17 years old we would go to Gardena, play low ball draw poker, they passed the deal to the players. Ernie owned the Rainbow and the Monterey clubs. I almost married Gary's sister, but she was a very athletic looking gal, not for me, so Married Kay. We all went to Colo. U. in Boulder. Fun days for all us kids, skiing, partying, back in late 50's you could legally drink 3.2 beer, Coors brewery was nearby, free tours and a hospitality room with all you wanted free beer, on Fri. afternoon we knew how to skip the tour, and go directly to the hospitality room. Great party for broke college kids. Oh, if I only had a time machine to go back!
