Burt B...

I don't understand why you would assume that my post would have anything to do with you. It didn't. I was merely posting a scan of one of my favorite chips. Am I not allowed to do that?

I happen to think that at the very least this is an INTERESTING pose for this beautiful chip. You see, what I did was to take an utterly common chip, one that is undoubtedly in the respective collections of every reader of The Chip Board who collects current Las Vegas material and which, consequently, could not conceivably be LESS interesting to ANY reader… and posted a scan of a BROKEN one.

Get it?

An incredibly common chip, but NOT incredibly dull because there is something unusual about it.

Get it?

And by the way… I like that “CHEERS!!!!!!!” bit. I think it’s gonna catch on. In fact, I’d bet that after this convention, we’re gonna be seeing a lot more “CHEERS!!!!!!!” here on The Chip Board. It’s a HAPPY word.

P.S. My thanks to Andy Hughes for his marvelous scan of a destroyed Las Vegas Hilton chip.
