With all the cut backs on the comps the casinos are doing now, I'll bet some of you wish old Bob was still around. Vegas would be a better place if some of the "Old School" boys were still in charge.

Only a true maverick would start a business on Friday the 13th.
By the way. I wonder if Bob was ever able to sit down when he wore this shirt?
