EVER WONDER WHY ALL THE OLDER CASINOS WERE NAMED CLUBS? MOST BEFORE 1931 WHEN GAMBLING WAS ILLEGAL ... HAD BACK ROOM GAMING "CARD CLUBS" ... PRIVATE, MEMBERS ONLY ETC. THEY PUBLIC KNEW WHEN THE SIGN SAID "CLUB" IT MEANT ... GAMBLING, DRINKING, WOMEN & FUN! ... AFTER GAMBLING BECAME LEGALIZED ... THEY ALL OPENED ON FREMONT ST. WITH NAMES LIKE ... "THE LAS VEGAS CLUB" ... "THE NORTHERN CLUB" ... "THE APACHE CLUB" ... "THE BOULDER CLUB" ... "CLUB SAVOY" ... "FRONTIER CLUB" ... "PIONEER CLUB" ... "MONTE CARLO CLUB" ... "ARIZONA CLUB"... "SILVER CLUB" ... "WESTERN CLUB" ... AND SOME OTHERS. THE BOULDER CLUB WAS AROUND BACK IN THE LATE 1920'S ... HERE IS AN INTERIOR BAR PHOTOGRAPH ... NOTICE THE 10 CENT BEER SIGNS BEHIND THE BAR AND THE OLD CALENDER ON THE WALL ... NO STOOLS ... THE BAR WAS TOO VALUABLE TO GIVE UP ROOM FOR SEATS ... TURN SIDEWAYS AND HOLD YOUR BEER! ... NOTICE THE NEON SIGN? .... SAY'S BET'S FROM A DIME UP! ... MATCHES THE 10C CHIP ...THE BOULDER CLUB HAD 2 WOMEN OWNERS AS WELL .. THEY WERE THE FIRST JOINT TO ALLOW AND WELCOME LADIES IN THE BAR AND CASINO. JAMES YOUNG, ONE OF THE OWNERS AT THE BOULDER CLUB ... MOVED TO SEARCHLIGHT AROUND 1960 AFTER THE FIRE DESTROYED THE CLUB. HIM AND HIS WIFE OPENED UP THE SEARCHLIGHT NUGGET! SHE RECENTLY DIED AND THEY SOLD THE NUGGET TO THE TERRIBLE HERBST BROTHERS. .... ENJOY THE PICTURES .... THANKS FOR READING MY POST!
