One of the slots we were hunting down ended up being in the ns area and that was nice as the smoke smell can get pretty noxious with some of the chain-smokers. It's nice I didn't realize that the casino DOES have a non-smoking area. I think if you take in everything we put into the slots and what we returned as a group, we probably were up twenty or so. I wasn't so lucky, but I didn't care because everything else was epic. The casino on Friday even seemed pretty tight but by Sunday, the wee hours (3-5a) one of the gals won $170 on a penny machine, starting out with only 3 bucks. Said security folk also watched our stuff once the crowds tried to converge at the end of the show.

The security didn't care that we were up against the stage versus staying next to our seats (really only difference of a few feet, but if I can get those extra few feet, I'll take it :)) I left my purse/phone/camera by my seat and a drunk tried taking it but the security detail was to my immediate right, saw it and stopped it. They're off to the side, but we were the row. We were all scattered through the venue, two of us having front row in section R. Crystal clear when just talking and still pretty dang good once the volume gets loud with hefty bass. The sound is actually really really good inside the venue. I've been here for everything from stand up by Ron White to concerts for country (awesome) duo Big & Rich. Mystic Lake's showroom for concerts is top notch. I'm the local so I've been here before to gamble and I've seen shows even prior to the showroom being renovated. Came here with some girlfriends from around the tri-state area to have a Big & Rich weekend.
