The upcoming May 2025 chip show, being held at the Grand Sierra Resort (GSR), reminds me of a previous chip show from 2002.

That show was held at the Reno Hilton Resort, the predecessor to GSR ... maybe even to be in the same ballroom as 23 years prior? It's a small world / coming "full circle".

Here's chip pic from MOGH/ChipGuide. Issued by Reno Hilton Resort to commemorate the event. I have some recollections from attending the event, but haven't tried to research further via back-issues of the club magazine, etc.
