There certainly was an Artichoke Joes. I have been there and I have a parlay card from Artichokes in my collection. Speaking of Carson City, Gary Austin also had a Book there called The Winners Circle. Scotty

Old Man; I'm almost certain he did. He is now booking out of the Carribean somewhere. From what I'm told it is a huge and lavish operation. ScottyComment

Old Man: Per Gaming Regulations, Sportsbooks wre required to post signs outlawing hand held phones. We were required to police them ourselves. I personally loved phones in my players hands so I had a phone room built with free acess for our players. If I remember there were 5 phones in there with outside acess only. No incoming calls and of course no long distance. The players loved them(us) and they generated a lot of wiseguy business which we dearly wanted. To bad that attitude is forever gone from Vegas.
