Noticed this in the USATODAY



I've said it before: Anytime the casino offers a bet for less than the table minimum, ask yourself why. --DJTeddyBear

My opinion is that they should have changed the name to The International. Just like it opened in 1969.
No guts, no glory! That's not very original right? Doesn't matter...

My vote is to go back to the International Hotel. I'd scale back the casino even more and really figure out a way to cater to the convention goers. It's sad that it has been diminished to that level, but what else can be done?


Great minds apparently do think alike... too bad we're not running the joint.

Was there last night. The casino was practically deserted but the sports book was jammed. The players, playing cards and chips all say "The Las Vegas Hilton" on them. The chips looked brand new.

Wait a sec...

I can understand the cards and chips, but the players?
Superstitions are silly, childish, irrational rituals, born out of fear of the unknown. But how much does it cost to knock on wood?

So here is a question from a chip collector: How long should it take for the casino at the Hilton to change its name and issue chips under the new name? ...

Yes, I'm probably jumping the gun on this, but does anyone have any idea of what kind of schedule is required for this sort of thing? Would they likely have everything in place in time for an "official" changeover of everything (including chips) on 1/3/12?
Just in case there is anyone other than me interested in this topic, and just in case that person doesn't read the Las Vegas Advisor QoD, today's Q&A reveals that the new chips will be available 3/30/12, prior to my next visit to Las Vegas.
