A Harvest Story BY RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER
SOME PEOPLE HAVE COMPULSIONS TO GAMBLE, SOME TO AMASS FORTUNES AND OTHER’S, THEY JUST LIKE TO WRITE STORIES; YEAH, THAT WOULD BE ME. I WAS NEVER 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 CAN.
REGGIE
THIS WAS A HARVEST THAT TOOK PLACE WHILE VISITING THE BILOXI AREA FOR THE FIRST TIME. NANCY AND I WERE STILL LIVING IN TENNESSEE AT THIS TIME. WE HAD MADE THE TRIP TO ATTEND A DEEP SOUTH CHIPPERS MEETING. ONE OF THE MEMORABLE THINGS I WAS PRIVILEGED TO DO WAS MEET TWO OF THE LEGENDARY CHIPPERS FROM THIS AREA. “THE COLONEL” AND “TOP”; I AM NOT SURE OF THEIR LAST NAMES SO I WILL NOT MAKE AN ATTEMPT OF WRITING THEM IN AT THIS TIME. MANY OF YOU FROM THIS AREA AND THE EARLIER NATIONAL CONVENTIONS KNOW EXACTLY WHO I AM SPEAKING OF.
THE BEAU RIVAGE IS QUITE IMPRESSIVE, MARBLE FLOORS MORE SPACE THAN USUAL BETWEEN TABLES AND MACHINES. SIMPLY PUT QUITE AWESOME. WE JUST WANTED TO PICK UP SOME CHIPS TO FILL MY COLLECTION AND HAVE A FEW FOR FUTURE TRADING. BUT, WE JUST COULD NOT HELP OURSELVES FROM WANDERING AROUND AND TAKING IN THE MAGNIFICENCE OF THE CASINO IT SELF. IT ROCKED.
FINALLY WE GOT AROUND TO THE CASHIERS CAGE, AND THEY SAID YOU HAVE TO GET THE CHIPS FROM THE DEALERS AT THE TABLES. A USUAL HAPPENING, SO WE DID AND RELUCTANLY SLID ON OUT OF THERE. WE HAD MORE CASINOS LATER THAT EVENING THAT NEEDED TO BE HARVESTED.
YES, I DID GET ENOUGH CHIPS AT THIS ELEGANT ESTABLISHMENT…REGGIE
