Just thought I'd post pics of my chip haul from my trip to vegas...we stayed at the MGM..and arrived the day after the vargas-mosley fight so I was able to get an uncirculated fight chip...my favorite is the oversized wynn $8 chinese new year chip...and the $2.50 excalibur chip just pops!
The brown chip with the rose comes from the Barbary Coast (adjacent to Bally's and across from Caesars Palace). No poker room though.. just a Really plump Elvis impersonator.
This Elvis was the highlight of my day I was hoping to experience that side of Vegas too...Elvis to the backdrop of slot machines ...the MGM where ChipGrrl and I spent most of our time was far too luxurious and modern

Incidentally, Chipgrrl... Your avatar... Vargas Girls cards. Love it.
My Grandmother gave me a mint set of those about a year ago. They were one of a few packs my grandfather used to play poker with his buddy's when he was in the pacific in WWII. It was the only set he kept after the war. It was a very nice memento since my Grandfather passed away two years ago & he was the person that taught me how to play poker when I was 5 or 6.
