The comments in LVRJ are interesting.
Harrah’s was the king. Reminds me of a guy who owns bar for years.
Jeeps, you are right on. Harrah’s and there many casinos use to be my place to go, now we never go there. We go where we get offers and are treated better…

Jim Linton

Posted a reply in this new yahoogroups format that can’t get used to; pushed the wrong button and deleted; so summarizing my reply but will probably show up in daily digests.
We also have moved on but remember the glory days that ended around 2005 after they became a megalith and then start of the disappearing fair bets around 2011 after they went private acquiring $20,000,000,000 in debt. 20 x 10(9th) -Billion with a B.
Truly it was “Hail Caesars” for about 10 years. Then 5 years of fair bets. Now all gone and we have also gone to places “where we get offers and are treated better.” No more upgrades to first class on nonstop flights as frequent flyers; limo ride from airport; suites, banquets and tourneys.
All we are looking for now is a fair bet.
Caesars used to be spectacular! I can remember attending NYE events where a beautiful gift was part of the attraction. One year we received a Bose clock radio; another year beautiful crystal! These days you can’t even get a cup of coffee in your room without spending $3.00 per cup (ok, in points).

Well, I’m still singing praises for CLV … we burn one one or both of our annual trips to return each year (with our next visit just a little over 4 weeks from now)
No doubt, everything’s “thinner” these days. But CLV still rates as one of our finer experiences.

We certainly missed the “golden age” at Caesars but still frequent it and have fun. We’re splitting time between Wynn and Caesars near the end of August.
