I am a fan of the home of the World Series of Poker.
Where else can you walk up and take a free picture in Vegas with a Million Dollars cash (Real Money)? Binion's also has an incredible Burger joint where Chef's of 5-Star restaurants come to eat, just sayin....
I was walking around Freemont and received a coupon for $20.00 free slot play. I put that into the machine and while everyone was winning tickets to have there photo taken with $1,000,000.00 I actually won $20.00 to play at any slot.
I am a HUGE fan of Old School Vegas. When I go to Vegas I am going to Vegas to gamble. I have been going to Vegas since I was 21 and I have never been in a Nightclub, After hours Bar, Strip Club etc. I go to Vegas to try and hit them and hot them hard. When I gamble and bet on Sports I want to be within walking distance to several Sportsbooks and several Casinos and on the strip that is 30 minute walk, Downtown that is a 1-2 minute walk.
Binion's has a HUGE history and still offers single deck Blackjack which is really fun to play.
In Downtown you are playing the same games as on the strip. On the Strip you have $25.00 dollar mins on tables at night, in Downtown that $25.00 is $5.00.
As the saying goes Vegas builds new Casino's on 0 & 00.
