..We've arrived at Buzz' house. At this point we were going to unload the sign and hold onto it until the BBQ. I was going to contact a neon shop about replacing the broken yellow tubes.

However, we changed our minds at the last minute and decided to take it straight to Joey at NLG, so off we went...

... I don't have pictures of us unloading it because I was holding onto the sign at the time! frying pan bust gut laughing bust gut laughing

Here are Joey and I shortly after we arrived. Joey is talking to GCMommy on the phone, but she still has no idea how large this thing really is...

David the fuel is on me!!  If anyone can see the chairs in the back of my P/U We bought them from the guy for $25 each. I am going back and buy some more. If any one wants any of the chairs are any thing in the Pic's   cost plus shipping  from the Golden State  (sometimes called the land of fruits and nuts) fruit and if you ever go to West Hollywood it's all true.

Jay   we will have to get Stat to post pic of his because, I gave my two to Joey. (we only had room for four) Any KISS fans there are I think  3 KISS signs, the smallest is about the size of Odie the largest at least twice as big or bigger!!! Pat wants this stuff out of his warehouse so I think its a buyers market.   4 near new black metal slot stands $10 each. Also has a full pallet of hoppers I have to check out.  Buzz

Bunker   Most of the machines (not for sale) he had were Aristocrat a few Bally's The pallet of hoppers was stacked on top of another pallet wrapped with plastic I think the hopper bowls were unpainted metal but not sure.  I've never seen the inside of a Aristocrat and is there a need on this site for hoppers for them?

We didn't come straight back from Joey's,  crossed the river and paid our dues at the Golden Nugget  David at a Black Jack table and myself at a Game King.  By the way the Nugget had a whole bunch of coin machines, upright slots and slant top PE are PE+ one game machines.  The Nugget had fewer coin cups after we left.  Buzz

Pat said that the hoppers were from the DR and might be set for penny sized coins, but he wasn't sure. I'm almost certain that they weren't IGT hoppers (they might have been Bally).

The Golden Nugget did, indeed, have an impressive number of CICO slot and VP machines. Two years ago when I was there with Ron (r273) there were only about a dozen or so old S-Pluses (four $0.50 machines and maybe ten $0.25 machines). Last year those were gone, but CaptainHappy CaptainHappy and I did find a few VP machines. Now they have at least two full rows of PE and PE-Pluses and many more S-Pluses, including $1 and $5 denominations. As Buzz mentioned, their bucket count came out a little light at the end of our visit. propeller We also made sure that they knew that we were pleased to see these machines back in play.

Actually, when we left Joey, our first stop was to get a bite to eat at the all night coffee house at the Tropicana. The casino was remodeled and looked nice and clean, but the drunk density was at least one per nine square meters Duh! banghead, and by drunk, I mean BLITZED. We were greeted at the curb (hadn't even made it to the door yet) by a rather good-looking young woman lying flat on her back. She welcomed us (I think?) as we passed by. Buzz actually seemed to have had some idea of what she had slurred -- er, said, so maybe he can offer his opinion. rotflmao rotflmao From there it was downhill, although the folks that I encountered were congenial, at least.

They had a lot of the newest Bally LCD games (EVO and EVO hybrid, or..??) and some S2000 5-reel games.

Here are pictures of one of the chairs. There were four or five different logo designs available, and they had various minor degrees of damage to the fabric, as you can see on the front of the seat in the picture below, but none were really bad.

Boy, You guys got a good deal on those chairs... yes
They are really much more expensive...the upholstery can be fixed no problem...
I think you can cut a small piece from the bottom and stuff it in the hole
and applying a little bit of glue to hold the piece and fibers from fraying any further.
