One of the last original mob controlled casinos, The Riviera, is closing in May. After that, are there any casinos left that were once mob run in Vegas??

I liked it they had that sports book lounge aside of it I seen the men in black rush some old guy in desguise and drag him out quickly HD was playing horses. Right across from circus circus still the finest family establishment west of the Mississippi. Jets just drafted d.e. side show Bob hair. They filmed casino there a lot the pool scence.

I was reading an article about how everything in that place was for sale. How cool is that? I'd get me a nice blackjack gaming table couple decks of cards and I'd be good to go. I wonder what ppl ended up buying.

I still have my Dunes coins that I saved, not worth much in dollar value but worth a lot to me sentimentally.

And Circus Circus. The other old time casinos are on Fremont Street. Other than that, the actual strip has removed all of the old mob casinos.
