    Yeah, I tried going to an Illinois casino once since the ban- they have those smoking "areas" outside but they are just not the same- did not enjoy it.

    I also always liked the Indiana casinos more than Illinois before- Harrah's Joliet seemed so much smaller and I couldn't win a thing there ever.

    I used to like Joliet's slot floor but they changed it a little over a year ago and now it stinks. We don't mind the smoke (even though we don't) but I do mind not being able to have a little fun while losing my money! (maybe even the hope of winning a little). So we go to Horseshoe and avoid Joliet.

    I recall learning that Illinois has the highest taxes on their casinos of just about any state. That doesn't leave much for the casinos to pay back to the players- which was always my theory why I couldn't win a thing in Joliet, either Harrah's or Hollywood.

    That's why I like going to Nevada casino's (LV mainly) and to AC. These casino's are only taxed around 9% which leaves more for the gambler to win and have a good time : )

    Running perfect. Just parked it in our driveway with the hood up for 3 hours yesterday and the hot sun dried up all that wet wiring.

    @Zooms Here's another idea with all the crown @goldengreeke has drank we could sew all the bags and make a tent but if he had them all the tent would be bought by ringling bros. for the circus.
