Casino of the Sun news.

I stopped by the Casino of the Sun (Tucson, AZ) today and saw their newly ordered and received three colors No Cash Value poker tournament chips. The three colors (which have not been assigned denominations) are grey, light blue and orange. All are the unicorn mold, and gold Hot Stamped. In the very center is a HS sunburst logo, around which is a HS of "Casino of the Sun" and "No Cash Value".

They have not had a tournament yet. sad

While there I did manage to confirm that the chip below originated from Casino of the Sun when it was called Arizona Club, which was a BINGO only place. Turns out that the chip (a porpoise mold) was used as a number cover on BINGO cards, not as a poker chip. They had two colors. The pink depicted and a grey. Both were only Hot Stamped on one side.

Slot Club Cards are still at a premium, as no one abandons them.
