I think old VP Pappy once said, "If white man speaks with forked
tongue, then red man speaks with forked casino."
I was up to the St. Ignace casino twice over the weekend going to
and from the UP. The new hotel (it looks great) is booking guests and
the bar and restaurant are open, but no gaming as yet.
They are erecting a huge tent-like structure that's going to serve
as a temporary (?) gaming area until they get their mess cleaned up.
Some guy who owns the land that they mistakenly built the new
hotel/casino on has stopped them from offering gambling. I was told
that the Indian owners are trying to enlist the government in getting
this resolved
While I was there, I played mostly dollar 9/6 JB and hit a lot of
quads to win a few hundred. I also hit a quarter 12 Times slot
machine for the 12 Times symbol and two triple bars for 900 credits.
The bells ran on for five minutes. Fun, but very lucky.
