Golden Gate Casino

A family who owns 13 nuts and bolts (no kidding!) plants in the midwest is buying half of the Golden Gate casino in downtown Las Vegas. Their plan is to remodel the joint while still retaining much of its historical character. Home of the 1st telephone in LVS, phone number #1; at one time was the Sal Sagev hotel (Las Vegas spelled backwards); famous for its 99c shrimp cocktail. The valet recognizes us and parks us VIP right by the door to the deli. When we moved here 15 years ago there was a live trio on Wed and Sunday nights for a number of years and $1 dice 24/7.
