Talking to the bartender later that night I learned someone later hit
the dollar progressive and someone else got the $5000.00 four of a kind
scratch card. I talked to the attendant that gave out the scratch card
and confirmed the story.

The most irritating thing about bar tops other than the sticky buttons is
the irritating bartender. They always seem to have a hype story to induce you to
play longer. But... once at the Keno bar at the Plaza the bartender gave me
sort of a "know when to say when" lecture when I lost $100 fairly quickly in
the coin dropper FPDW [long gone] and ordered a second load of quarters. It's
odd how they can be so close to a play and not understand what we are doing.

Their pitch that annoys me most , is the "its a small world" pitch...Where you from....new york.."I got a cousin in Buffalo, My parents use to live in Brooklyn, my wife's from Albany, etc". One day I answered with " I'm from Iowa falls...and get a ...oh...we have relatives in Sioux city @!"

When I was a drinking guy... as long as my glass never got empty
bartender could say anything he wanted. Now it's diet Coke and a
bottle of water. As long as the the soft drinks are refilled quickly;
let him talk on.

Those sticky buttons? Soak the button with some water and work the
button with a bar rag. Most of the buttons will clean up nice. If your
going to play for a while; call slot tech. They might need a little
windex and just like new.

I hate sticky buttons too.
