vbg Harvest Stories from here & abroad mad

Hello Chippers; Here is a short story from yours truly or a guest author of our experiences while harvesting somewhere in the gaming world. A few are from countries out side the USA. Most are entertaining and most are instructive as to what to do or what not to do while harvesting chips from casinos or card rooms. Reggie

PERSONAL HARVESTING STORIES

LITTLE CREEK CASINO SHELTON, WA

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

THIS HARVEST WAS DURING MY FATHER & SON TRIP ALL OVER THE WESTERN STATES. KEN (MY YOUNGEST SON) AND I EMBARKED ON A TRIP THAT WOULD TAKE US THROUGH THE FOLLOWING STATES AND VICTORIA, BC: CALIFORNIA, NEVADA, UTAH, COLORADO, SOUTH DAKOTA, MONTANA, IDAHO, WASHINGTON & OREGON.
WE HAD LEFT VICTORIA EARLY THAT MORNING AND CAUGHT AN EARLY FERRY TO PORT ANGELES AND HEADED DOWN THE ROAD IN HIS BRAND NEW MUSTANG, WE STOPPED IN AT LITTLE CREEK CASINO FOR A MID DAY LUNCH, LOOKED AROUND FOR A BLACK JACK TABLE AFTER BEING TOLD AT THE CASHIER THAT CHIPS ARE SOLD AT THE TABLE ONLY.
I ASKED THE DEALER AT THE BLACK JACK IF HE HAD SEEN ANY OF “TOTEM FROG” CHIPS, AND HE LAUGHED VERY LOUDLY, I THOUGHT WE MIGHT HAVE TO CALL A DOCTOR. SO I COLLECTED THE SMALL AMOUNT OF SINGLES I NEEDED; PLAYED A FEW HANDS OF BLACK JACK PAID FOR OUR LUNCH, AND WENT TO LOOK FOR MY SON, WHO WAS PLAYING SLOTS TO KILL TIME. WE HOOKED UP AND BACK ON THE ROAD AGAIN.
I DID GET ENOUGH OF THE COMMON CHIPS I NEEDED FROM LITTLE RIVER, BUT WAS DISAPPOINTED ON NOT FINDING AT LEAST ONE OF THE “TOTEM FROG”…REGGIE
