... and boy, are my arms tired! (Sorry, that's one of those lines that is too hard to resist.) I spent almost a week out in Las Vegas, and I tried to go to as many places as I could and get as many chances as I could for cards I didn't have. Also, I concentrated on the places I missed when I was in LV for the convention last June. Back then for outside the city locations, I went to Mesquite and Laughlin, and this time I ran out to the places I missed then - Jean, Primm and Pahrump. I got the new cards at Saddle West and the Pahrump Nugget, but you guys have seen those. Out in Pahrump at the Terrible Town casino and the Terrible Lakeside location (as well as the Terrible's in Las Vegas) the type 4 card with "cpi 29433" has been replaced by a new version that all three places were issuing -- it has only "cpi" with no number for a mfg. mark. Some new ones that I can show off are the Harrahs Elvis card, being issued in LV, the new card from Speedway on the north side (they put a name/bar code sticker on the back and scan for certain wins to give you points), the slightly new card from the Tropicana (the type from last spring is above the new one - note the different blurb under the Tropicana logo) and the new card from PT Mining Co. (that I got at the place down on Boulder highway almost as far south as Magis Star - is that the only one that issues cards?) which looks a little like the type one red PT card, except that one had just "PT'S" in the yellow oval, with "We're right around the corner" in black above the oval. When I was there, the computer was down and the young lady said I couldn't print me a card. Happily, she gave me a blank and saved me a long drive back down there.
