I truly do not know how to respond to that. But I will get back to you on this.
I could think of a few replies, dog, but they would probably get censored. I do know that it really does not take that much more energy to be polite and courteous to others.

Backsider, I am sure you made your post to get a reaction from me. I will not give you the satisfaction. But be rest assured SUNSHINE this dogs bite is considerably worse than his bark. I will go places you cannot imagine so let sleeping dogs lie. One would think someone who is not upwardly mobile would be a little more sensitive to racial slurs and the like

Ak-Chin was a really nice little casino until Harrah's went private in 2007. Since then it has gone downhill from our perspective and we rarely go there anymore. I am surprised there wasn't a high limit area as they used to have one. At one point, Ak-Chin was the only Harrah's property with regular Bingo. Don't know if that is still the case.

Thats just stupid. Racial slurs? How about education inadequacy, as most public stories in the media refer to Indian casinos as Indian casinos. And oh excuse me James Bondi. I work at the AF base, Im in Military Intelligence, and the threat was just logged. You may or may not have a federal visitor once these guys do their thing.

I'm hoping it was just another dumb response from you and thats all.

Was not a threat. It was a promise. I welcome any and all visitors to my humble abode.

I heard that quite a bit when I was there, Bill, that several things had been eliminated. There is a Bingo Hall across the parking lot (they actually run a shuttle from the casino to the Bingo Hall in case you don't want to walk 100 feet ). I was kind of surprised that they didn't have more to offer, since I heard that they have some casino competition not too far away.

I just looked this Ak-Chin up. Its an unimpressive Indian casino associated with Harrahs the same way Rincon in San Diego is, in an obscure part of the desert south of the Phoenix area. Thats all there shows is Indian casinos in and around that city too. I guess the lure for all those special 7 stars superstars is the free trip or the cheap cigarettes or probably plentiful liquor stores nearby. But if a casino program flew ME to Phoenix Arizona for free, Id stay in the city and enjoy myself.

   I've had some success at Ak-Chin in the past. They have 9/7/5 Double Bonus $1/$2 multi-denom. They do have the best VP here in Phoenix area IMO.
   I do agree that calling it a resort is a stretch. That said, if the golf course was Troon managed, it had to be good. Sounds like you received some good equipment.
