The Thunderbird Resort Club was a timeshare located in Sparks. We went to one of the spiels back in the 1970s but all we got was the two nights and three days visit and a bottle of Champagne. I don't recall getting playing money at the Sundowner but it may have been included. The really cool thing was that it was Great Balloon Race weekend - what a great sight to see them all passing over in the early morning.
This token is listed in "The Collector's Guide to Nevada Casino Promotional Tokens" but with a blank back side. The listed value is $5 - $6. This book was published in 1993 so values may not be accurate.
