Thread: Riverwind casino

  1. Default Riverwind casino

    Has anybody been yet? Make twice for me, friday nights is guys nights they give you 10 bucks to play on, monday is ladies night same deal. It a good way to get out for a bit on friday nights, we hit good on one machine and walked away with about 120 bucks winnings. Used some of that and ate there at a palce called the willow buffet, friday nights is seafood night al you can eat seafood, but at 21 bucks a person is exspensive but I ate my share of 20 bucks worth of seafood, they had just to name a few, crablegs, frog legs, shrimp, lots of choice of fish from salmon to halibut, calimaria(sp), clam strips, crabcakes, crawfish. I think I found a new seafood place to eat, yeehaw!!! Over all it a good place to go to spend some time and drop a few bucks, oh and on guys/ladies night you get in a drawing for 250 bucks cash!!

    I have some young friends who occasionally go out on a Friday, but less and less as they all seem to work on Friday eve now. The 'thrill' isn't a big thing for them, so they tend to only go on the guy's night and risk little of their own dobbers.

    I have not been to Riverwind pass it going north coming home from work. Friday nights are crazy. The traffic coming from the South is backed up for a mile sometimes, especially if there is a concert. I had a friend that had tickets for a concert and missed half of it because she did not anticipate all of the extra time it would take to get into the place. I have been to the Firelake in Shawnee and it almost sorta looks like a real casino. They do have roulette and craps but play it with cards. I guess they are anticipating that we will pass full-fledged gambling someday.

    Has anyone been to a concert at the Riverwind casino? I have tickets to the Doobie Brothers in April, just wondered what the theater was like?

    I saw Hootie and the Blowfish there ... we were able to get up really close to the stage because Darius told us to come up .. (which the security guards didn't like and unfortunately two girls got in a fight which was so embarassing) ... but anyway, the concert was great and it's a nice smaller venue so you can really get up close and personal.

    I won $0.13 there the one time I went. My g/f walked out $50 up...So we counted it as a good night. $50.13 more than what we left with, and that was including paying for all my beer, which is no small tab when I'm not driving.

    Do they actually have beer now? Last time I was there, they had no alcohol if I remember correctly.

    Get Out! whoooooooooooooooooooo!!

    That is awesome!

    * I just thought of something.. Uncle Sam will want a piece of the pie...not to put a damper on anything but I believe you can track your losses (future) at the casino ( you might be able to ask the Guest Relations for a letter or receipt) as well for next year's income tax returns to offset your win ...ask your accountant to be sure.

    But still, that is so cool!! Congratulations!

    If that wasn't beer, it was some REALLY funny tasting Sprite.

    haha, ok. That's crazy that they don't have alcohol there though, er I guess oh gawd said they have funky sprite now, will have to go try that!

    When I hear Hootie I want to have a drink, that's why I asked.

    They had a full bar in there.

  15. Default Re: Riverwind casino

    I have been there for three concerts. I saw Sugarland there,also Lonestar, and most recently Tom Jones. I love concerts there. You can usually get closer to the stage, and it's a relaxed atmosphere. They are really getting some good acts there.

    For a brief period they lost their liquor license. You were probably there during that time Karrie. It has been reinstated and the full bar is now open for business.
    They always have some great shows. Here's what I know is coming up so far -
    2/29 - Huey Lewis and the News

    3/7 - George Thorogood
    3/8 - Willie Nelson
    3/22 - Keith Sweat
    3/28 - Clint Black
    3/29 - Johnny Rivers

    4/4 - Gary Allen
    4/18 - Julio Iglesias

    Julio!!! Wish he was bringing his son with him!

    And a handful of poor people paid for your $2,100 by gambling their paychecks away, while their children at home have nothing to eat. That's something to get excited about.

    Riverwind is such a great corporate citizen.

    When you get old enough to go there, you can have an opinion.

    Considering that I'm older than you, that's a non-issue. Maybe when YOU get older, you'll be mature enough to know the inside workings of gambling, and the people that suffer from its presence.

    Been there. Done that. Still think you were harsh, judgemental, and over exaggerating.
