sad A Sad Day in Gaming History sad

On December 19th 2002 the Casino Chip hobby lost its best friend, Bruce Landau. He was, above all else, a friend to everyone. He was a collector, before there was a club. Like Phil Jensen, his love of he hobby led him to scour small towns in Nevada in search of chips from long gone casinos. He traded chips, my pile for yours, before anyone had attached values to them. An organizer of the CCGTCC and it's first Treasurer. He ran the convention auction, which is now named after him. He is in our Hall of Fame. He was always good for a smile and a laugh. He always made you feel welcome. I feel so sad that he is no longer around, but happy to have known him. Bruce, rest in peace.
