For anyone who finds casinos – and specifically casino history – a fascinating topic, this show is a must-see event. And for the low price of admission, $10 max, it’s an entertainment value.
Greatest collection of casino mementos in one place
Show attendees will find casino chip experts and their displays dedicated to a multitude of gaming chip categories such as rare chips, roulette chips, counterfeit chips, illegal casino chips, odd denomination chips and collections dedicated to sports and even aliens. Additional collections on display will include gaming tokens, dice, slot cards, playing cards, matchbooks, menus, dinnerware, swizzle sticks, casino photos, post cards and more. All dealer tables will be spaced six-feet apart.
Celebrity appearances
Mark Hall-Patton, nicknamed the “Beard of Knowledge” and known for his cameo role in over 200 episodes of “Pawn Stars,” the History Channel’s reality show, will be on hand to greet visitors from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, June 19.
