......not been down to the El Cortez and talked to top management to find out about why these possibly very valuable chips being given away !! The CCA has an ongoing Exhibit at El Cortez and we certainly should be able to get all the details about these chips - are they real?? -can the CCA get some of these for a fun raiser?? - can any other old chips be purchased ?? - etc, etc.

If I lived in Vegas I would have been there ASAP !!

We might even be able to stop the promotion (since it doesn't start for about 3 weeks) and have the El Cortez donate or sell the chips and raise money for a Charity of some kind instead of just giving them away to slot players who probably don't care about these chips anyway.

Just MHO.

Take care,
Jerry
