| Bill Henderson Shows Comedian Brian Lee "The Hook" Nevada Style! |
Comedy Coming!
As Tim Parsons says in his story about our
upcoming Comedy Show in
this article on Tahoe Onstage: Brian
Lee transitioned from a fighting man to a funny man. “I entered the Army four
days before the first Gulf War,” he said. “It ended 100 hours later. That’s no
coincidence.” After 24 years with both the Army and Navy, Lee now is an 18-year
comedy veteran. His four-comic troupe is called Core 4 Comedy and it kicks off the Veterans Day weekend with an
appearance on Saturday, Nov. 10 in our Valley Ballroom. Joining Brian are Host Jeff Anderson, Special Guest Luke
Westberg and Feature Act Andy
Picarro. Just $20 for the four-barreled dose of laughs and fun . . . buy your
tickets (just $20) online or at our hotel desk!
NBA Returns – Here’s Our Starting 5
With the start of the NBA regular season yesterday, we’re
naming our “starting five” bar snacks you can have delivered to your seat
whether you’re watching basketball, football, or any other sport in the cabaret
lounge, seated at the cabaret bar or gaming! While these
snacks don’t photograph as well as real NBA players, they all taste great! The
upper left is the Breakfast Burrito which also includes a free Bloody
Mary or Budweiser draft, all for $5.99. The Bagel Sandwich is in the
upper center – a fried egg, your choice of sausage patty or bacon and cheddar
cheese on a toasted bagel served with hash brown patties for $5.99. The upper
right is the Pound of Buffalo Wings with celery and ranch dressing for
$7.99. In the lower left is our Cheese Quesadilla with sausage and
jalapenos for $5.99. And in the lower right, Two Beef Tacos with salsa
for $4.99. A good starting five is only
as effective with solid bench players. So, not pictured are our Hamburger or
Cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion and American cheese on a
sesame seed bun for $7.99 and our Chicken Strips and Fries basket for
$5.99.

| His Appearance Drove One of "Our Guys' Picks! |
- Our Guys Picks! Another week with a 3–5 record so let’s see how these picks fair for the coming weekend: Mike is again going the college route but since he went 0-2 last week he’s trying a new approach and making his picks based on mascots he likes. To that end, he’s taking the Minnesota Golden Gophers +3½ versus the Nebraska Corn Huskers and the Oregon Ducks +2½ playing the Washington State Cougars. Steve thinks the NFL high-scoring will continue and laid the following two choices of on our desk: over 54½ for the Giants/Falcons game and over 58 ½ on the Bengals/Chiefs game. Greg, who might as well just throw darts at the board, is going all-New York with the Jets +3½ against the Vikings and the Giants +6 over the Falcons. Finally, diehard Eagles fan Alan jumped in with over 45½ on the Eagles/Panthers game and the Buccaneers -3½ vs. the Browns.
- The Progressive Pro PK'EM jackpot jumped to $3,320 for this week . . . play a $5 card and it’s yours if you pick all 15 games. If more than one of you “hits” them all, the pot is split. If no one hits it, the amount goes higher next week.
- Monday Night Football Poker Room Grid: Squares are worth $56 each for this coming Monday’s Giants/Falcons game. You have to be present to win and any unclaimed winnings roll to the following week. Check the details on this page.
- Enjoy $2 Domestic Draft Beer during all NFL games at the CVI.
- The Board is Jammed! This week you can bet NCAA and NFL Football, NHL Hockey, NBA Basketball, the Baseball ALCS and NCLS, Canadian Football League, the Sunday NASCAR Hollywood Casino 400 and Horseracing.
