Four new chips added since the last update, bringing my total to 513 different $5 casino chips. Gotta be the best collection in DeWitt, if not all of Clinton County.
The new chips are:
Ameristar - Kansas City, MO
Fitwilliam Card Club - Dublin, Ireland
Harrahs - New Orleans, LA
Quechan Casino and Resort - Winterhaven, CA
The Ameristar - Kansas City, MO chip comes from Rob. I appreciate him spending time in KC so that I don't have to. Anymore.
The Fitzwilliam comes from our trip to Dublin/Munich. While I'm glad I got this chip, I probably wouldn't choose to go back to Dublin, especially at the expense of more days in Munich. The cab ride from the casino to our hotel was probably the only time I have ever been more than 50% sure the cabbie was going to rob/kill me. Super sketchy. Almost rose to the level of pre-dialing 9 and 1 and having my finger on the other 1. Does that work over there? I guess I'm glad I didn't find out. While he didn't kill/rob us, he did come about 3 inches from running over a bicyclist on the route. In his defense, the roads are super narrow and the bicyclists are very very brave.
Harrah's New Orleans comes from Julie's Aunt Winnie. It's my second chip from this casino, and the two are not very different, but different nonetheless. And while Louisiana is one of four states I haven't been to yet (with Hawaii, Vermont, Idaho), again I'm glad I didn't have to spend time there to get this one. As my brother told me, the French Quarter smells like piss and vomit. He doesn't exactly work for their tourism department.
I have no recollection of how I came to be the owner of this chip. Do you know? Let me know.
See you in 2020, I guess!
