It certainly seemed out of place; CC strikes me as a place that you would expect to be full of those quarter-bulldozer machines.


Sandra Bernhardt was on the last episode of Hot in Cleveland, playing the lesbian lover of Laura San Giacomo's character. It was pretty funny to see that her face really hasn't changed in 20 years. She looked ragged back then, and she still does!

If LVH could bottle that scene and bring it back today, I'm pretty sure it would...

Wikipedia says that those 2 episodes of Roseanne were filmed at LVH, twenty years ago.
That's odd because Circus Circus is definitely where I imagine Roseanne and Dan staying. (Maybe if they were bringing DJ and Darlene).

I don't doubt it. I only linked to it to try to point out the game (whose actual name is Flip It).

CC was the only place I was ever backroomed. My wife put
a $50 bill in a slot in 1998 and nothing happened. I called
a slot tech and they called security and we were asked to
follow some giant guy in a suit. He took us off the casino
floor, down a long hallway, into a tiny room. He sat behind
a desk and we had to stand. He was very rude and asked
us about 10 times to tell him what happened. My wife was
terrified. Eventually his phone rang and he opened a drawer
and gave me fifty dollars, got up and left. Never apologised,
never said we could go, he just disappeared. We left CC and
never went back. He was straight out of a mob movie, fat,
55, no neck, gruff voice.

I don't know if that fits my definition of backroomed. In any event, never ever go anywhere with these goons.

If they take you anywhere off the casino floor, thats
backroomed. They kept asking if we were going to
stick with our story because they were reviewing the
video. He told us if it didn't match what we said, they
would call the police. This guy never smiled, was never
friendly, was in fact quite scary. A tech told us later
that people try to scam the casino all the time by saying
they put in a hundred when they put in ten. If it
shows on the video that it was a ten, he said they do
indeed call the police and have them arrested. There
were at least 2 cameras in the small office where we
were questioned.
