The Empress Casino in Joliet Illinois will be having their Grand Opening of their new casino after the fire they had earlier this year. They are re-branding the casino to Hollywood Casino and will be having a new rack of chips. We plan on going there tomorrow night, after work & dental appointment, to pick up some of the new chips. If anyone would like me to get them chips please send me an e-mail and I will see what I can do. All chips will be at $2 over face plus postage. Not sure if they will have 50¢ chips or a $2.50 chips but my guess would be the later like their other casinos.
