Not sure if this had been posted previously... It's an article I found on Bloomberg.com. http://quote.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000039&refer=columnist_levin&sid=a_MUCxI2dAus
I am just waiting to see a bank of slots labeled "Win a Ferrari" Or having the pit boss walk up to you and say "Sir we are so impressed with your play i would like to offer you a 30K service on the house!" That would make worth the visit. Rob Guess "The Other Rob"
10 or so years ago, the Tropicana had a Ferrari (328?) on the second floor that you could win with quarters. Everytime I went to Vegas I would stop by and try to win it. Don't know if anyone actually won, I know the machines were tight! :-(
Yep, someone did win. It was in '86, and the guy who won it immediately sold it to his partner whom owned a jewelry shop in the Buena Park mall. He used to drive it to the mall often, and often in the same parking spot.
When I was in Vegas in 87 or 88 there was a 308/328 with the Pink Panther sitting in it that you could win playing slots. I thought it was at Circus Circus but I am not sure now. Is this the same one you guys saw?
