I have tried to avoid going to any Casinos in Calgary simply because I love them and I know once I start I will go all the time. I used to dress up in a black dress and wear lipstick and go to the casino in Montreal till wee hours in the morning pretending I was a big high roller from China, I am afraid I may have to start this obsession again because last night we went to this one.
Wow, this is like 10 blocks from my home and it has free parking; this is an all together huge seduction tactic for me, imagine me getting into my car and leaving it in underground heated parking that is free and sauntering directly to a slot machine at any hour of the given night.
They took my coat last night at the lobby and we were able to circulate the slot area. Now I like to venture into a casino in intervals, checking out each section. I obviously haven't been to a Casino for a long time as I was perplexed that the slots did not take your change, you could just slip your bill in and cash out getting a computerized stub which you could reinsert into any other machine of your choice.
2 cents slot machine, I was absolutely tantalized until I realised you had to play these x 25.
My honey and friends were Casino green so we decided on the nickel slots and I didn't play much as I was so entertained by their enthusiasm. There were squeals of delight from winning ten credits, huge total earning of 50 cents and then tormented sounds from losing 5 dollars. At one point my honey was aimlessly walking around with a 25 cent vouture trying to find that lucky machine. It was really serious situation and it was all too funny in the end.
This place is really nice, it is only one level but it is spacious enough. The staff here are really nice but they don't take kindly to photos being taken. The place is fairly clean and elegant plus I would really love to take in the Asian buffet here.
Soda pop is free while you play and the seats are fairly comfortable. We left and everyone had actually won a little something so our green Casino friends had already made plans to return for another evening very very soon.
This idea makes me very happy; I am slowly taking out the lipstick from my makeup kit and setting it aside for these special outings.
