LOL...I just pulled these 2 nice $5 coins out of a S-plus machine today.  They are huge coins at almost 2" across and very heavy.  Anybody ever hear of or been to that casino? Ho-Chunk.

If they are still open I might just make the drive to get my money back.

Hey Stout....these came from your future machine...sorry...I found them first.

Baraboo, Wisconsin.
Beautiful area (especially this time of year), pretty big casino.  It's been quite awhile, but last time there was still some coin, including a 40 game (IGT S+) Mikohn mystery J/P link called 'Money Time'.

I'm trying desperately to locate a picture of me in front of the Ho-Chunk.  I walked in  - won $800 and walked out.  Unfortunately it was before iPhoto,  so I have to dig back into ancient history. 


What a blast from the past.    You know I used to collect buckets from each of the casino I went to.  At one point I had over 100 - Ho-Chunk was in there!  - But then I got married - I never dreamed I would own a slot machine so there all in the trash now but a precious few....  hissy fit

Ahh those those memories !!   obsessed drool

Well if the Ho-Chunk is now coinless I am wondering if they have bag loads of tokens to sell cheap.

When I was there they had a sign that said "Please check all firearms at the door."

Actually - it was pretty scary -

A pickup drove up with kids hanging out the back (11 - 13 years old)  each with a rifle  - the driver got out who looked like he had a few adult beverages and they went behind the entrance to the casino.

That's kinda why we left after that hit.   arrow
