I have not had much luck finding a bus going from DC to AC but have heard rumors that there is one. I searched but kept finding stupid threads on "bus-ting" out etc.

Does anyone have the scoop? Also, which hotel do I stop at to get the free $20?

Thanks,
Greg

I used to live in DC. Just check Greyhound. THey have round trip tickets to AC for around 35, oftentimes w/ some random coupon for a negligible amount of chips, though not when you consider the cost of the ticket.

Greyhound buses leave about five times a day from the Silver Spring station. The ticket to AC is like $35 round trip, but you have to return within three or four days (or else you have to buy a seperate return ticket). Each bus only stops at two or three casinos, but they all give out $20 vouchers in some form or other. You should just buy the ticket at the station, but you might want to call the station to find out which buses go to which casinos.

Someone told me about this one they had used:

Was thinking about using it in December for my trip. Let us know what you discover.
