That story of an emergency is BS.
The Park Place 100 is the 1st issued chip (BPP-100). If there was an emergency and they took the chips off the table because of some kind of emergency, why would the casino turn around and ask for a new rack to produce that is the same as the ones they took off the table.

Here are some more fakes
