I saw the thread title after reading the Stardust thread and thought it was a weak joke post.

11/26/96 Sands (Las Vegas) imploded

probably not. They have the lowest Toke rate in the city. They'll make more on Unemployment.

This sucks.

The Brighton Steakhouse is hands down my favorite AC eatery.

Add'lly Sands is currently the only AC casino I know of with 25c 9/6 Jacks-or-better VP.

I think the Sands holds the record for moving the poker room the most times. The property never seemed to really commit to the game. When the new property gets built, I hope we see something much better. Good riddance.
