Four new chips added to the collection that I bought online.
1. Aladdin - Lionel Richie. Hello? Is this the chip you're looking for? From New Year's Eve 2004, this chip was limited to 5,000. The opposite side is a "Coming in 2006 Planet Hollywood" design. I'm kind of surprised it took me this long to get the Lionel chip though. Always a strong jukebox play at the Pub.
2. Aladdin - Grand Opening. This is the 2000 second opening of the Aladdin. It originally opened in 1966 and was imploded in 1998. It reopened two years later and then in 2007 finally changed to Planet Hollywood.
3. MGM Grand - Ty Murray. This is another of the red/white edge chips that looks just like their Grand Opening, Julio Cesar Chavez and Betty Boop chips. He's a 9-time World Champion rodeo cowboy and he's married to Jewel. Not sure which accomplishment the chip is commemortating.
4. Pioneer Club - Vegas Vic/Hoover Dam. The Pioneer Club has a series of chips with the same Vegas Vic back and a historic Vegas fact/photo on the other side. This one is for the completion of the Hoover Dam in 1936. But I really like the Vic side of it, so I chose to go with that one. The Pioneer Club was a downtown casino that closed 20 years ago.
