2024 - July

 Now we're cooking with fire! A third post this calendar year! Blog production not seen since the glory days of 2014. Ten fricking years ago. This chip is #530 in my collection (531 if you count both sides of the glorious "Mortal Enemies" chip of 1995).

Encore - Boston Harbor


A work trip took me to Boston just before the 4th of July. There are three casinos in Massachusetts, this being the closest to downtown. I didn't actually make the trip out to the casino as an Uber there and back just for a chip wasn't economically sensible, but we did hit up a Red Sox game at Fenway. GK even made it onto the jumbotron. What an accomplishment. Encore is part of the Wynn/Encore group - hence the very similar chip design. And I can't believe the Wynn opened in 2005 and Encore in 2008. They seem way newer than that. The other casinos in that group are in Macau, so maybe I can head there next.
