Free expensive alcohol (ie: Johnny Walker Blue) for us $0.25 VP'ers?

I know casinos serve free liquor. but will they serve expensive
liquor to low rollers (ie: .25 vp)?

Also, which liquors are considered expensive? And which casino will
have them for us low rollers?

I was served Absolut gimlets at MSS bar a few weeks ago. Buddy was
drinking some fancy scotch. No problem.

The hardest thing will be to find what you want to drink. Be advised almost
all service bars will NOT have the class you are speaking of. JW Blue is
what, $200 per

That's true. However, if you're a regular, and IF you're really nice to the
waitress every time you're there, talk to her, know her name, and tip well,
then sometimes certain special waitresses will go to non-service bars if
available to get you a top-shelf drink.

But they're doing that as a favor to a known customer, and it's not likely
to happen unless you either (a) have a pre-existing relationship, or (b)
slip her a $20 or something.

And if you slip her a $20 to get a Blue Label, well, you might as well go
buy your own drinks...

Oh, and IMHO, Blue Label is highly overrated, and isn't really any better
than something like The Macallan (12 yr). At the end of the day, Jonnie
Walker Blue is still a blended scotch.

At the Suncoast bars, if you ask for Dewar's, I know they pour it directly
from the bottle. At Texas Station, if you ask for Dewar's, it's anybody's
guess as to what you get because it comes from "the hose." At the Rampart
(when they still had FPDW at the bar), you could ask for JW Blue or even
Talisker scotch (my fave!), but you had to pay for it -- they wouldn't give
it for free.
