The Riviera is out of Control
New Release
Riviera 50th Anniversary $100 Showgirls
04-30-05
Limited to ???
The Riviera has been busy, busy, busy! This awesome chip is celebrating 50 years of Vegas, showgirls, and the Strip. And what better to slap on a $100 chip than a pic of some original showgirls? Vegas is having its Centennial and the Riv is 50. This is just one of a bunch of chips the Riviera is blasting out this month. Any Derby chips in the queue?
Speaking of anniversaries, here's another one from where else? The Riviera of course!!
New Release
Riviera $5 NDA 20th Anniversary 2005
04-30-05
Limited to 500
These are always really cool chips. Great logo but I don't know if I want to be around that many people tossing sharp, pointy things! It's a week-long event so there must be tons of people there. Since it's been going on 20 years, it would seem that it draws pretty good crowds. Darts is typically (not always) a bar game, and bar folks tend to drink...just a little...and gambling fits into that lifestyle...see where I'm going? The Riviera is probably just tickled pink to have all of those people hanging around.
But we're not done! Here are some more significant releases from the Riviera:
Riviera $5 APA Championships 2005
04-30-05
Limited to 500
Riviera $5 50th Anniversary 2005
2 different chips
04-30-05
Limited to 750 for chip #1 (Hotel)
Limited to 500 for chip #2 (Car)
Oh yeah...Steve Wynn's Wynn Las Vegas opened. Nice looking resort, nice logo, boring chips.
