SOME PEOPLE HAVE COMPULSIONS TO GAMBLE, SOME TO AMASS FORTUNES AND OTHER’S, WELL THEY JUST LIKE TO WRITE STORIES. YEAH, THAT WOULD BE ME. I HAVE ALWAYS LIKED TO WRITE, NEVER WAS VERY GOOD AT IT; BUT I HAVE DONE IT OVER THE YEARS JUST THE SAME.
IF ANY OF YOU WANT ANY INSIDE INFORMATION ON ANY CASINO THAT I’VE BEEN TO, I WOULD BE HAPPY TO TELL YOU WHAT I KNOW.

ON ONE OF MY MANY TRIPS TO MONTANA OVER THE YEARS, NANCY AND I STOPPED AT THE LITTLE BIG HORN CASINO ON THE WAY TO BILLINGS, MT. THIS CASINO WAS JUST OVER THE WYOMING-MONTANA BORDER, IN THE LITTLE INDIAN TOWN OF CROW AGENCY.
WHEN WE WALKED IN THERE; IT LOOKED BAD, THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO DESCRIBE IT. NANCY LOOKED AT ME AND I LOOKED AT HER, AND I SAID DO YOU WANT TO GO BEFORE I FIGURED OUT HOW TO HARVEST? SHE SAID NO, WE CAN STAY A LITTLE WHILE I SEE SOME OLD MACHINES THAT I USED TO LOVE TO PLAY. I SAID OK AND ASKED THE CASHIER WHERE THE POKER ROOM WAS. SHE DIRECTED ME TO A STAIRWAY AND SAID UP THERE.
I WALKED UP THE STAIRS AND THERE WAS A BIG INDIAN MAN AT HEAD OF THE TABLE AND HE SAID ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A GAME? AND THERE WAS ONE OTHER INDIAN MAN THAT LOOKED LIKE HE COULD HAVE BEEN IMPLICATED IN THE LAST STAND THAT OCURRED A FEW MILES AWAY. I SAID NO, THAT I WAS LOOKING TO BUY SOME CHIPS FOR MY COLLECTION, HE SAID JUST GO TO THE CASHIERS CAGE, THEY WILL FIX YOU UP. I WAS VERY GRATEFUL TO GET THAT INFO AND WENT AND BOUGHT MY CHIPS AND QUICKLY GRABBED NANCY ON THE WAY OUT.
I GOTTA SAY THAT WAS ONE OF THE MORE STRESSFUL HARVESTS; BUT, SUCCESSFUL. AND YES I DID BUY ENOUGH AT THIS CASINO. …REGGIE http://www.themogh.org/cg_chip2.php?id=MTCALB
