A QUICK STORY JUST RELATED TO ME ABOUT BINIONS MILLION DOLLAR BILL DISPLAY. 1954 BENNY UNVIELED THE BEAUTIFUL BIG HORSESHOE WITH 100 $10,000 DOLLAR BILLS BEHIND GLASS. THEY MADE PHOTO POSTCARDS FOR THE TOURIST ETC. LATER THE U.S. TREASURY DEPT. RAIDED, BINIONS HOME, THE HORSESHOE CASINO, THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER AND OTHERS WHO HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH PHOTOGRAPHING THESE $10,OOO BILLS. SOUNDS CRAZY BUT IT HAPPENED ... IT WAS ILLEGAL TO PHOTGRAPH MONEY. THEY SHUT DOWN THE DISPLAY, THEY CONFISCATED THE POSTCARDS AND CAMERA AND WERE GOING TO ISSUE FINES AND PENALTIES TO ALL INVOLVED. BINIONS AND THE LAS VEGAS REVIEW JOURNAL ALONG WITH THE GOVERNOR ALL TOOK LEGAL ACTION TO STOP THIS ACTION AND RESTORE THE DISPLAY AT THE HORSESHOE. LATER AFTER JOE W. BROWN DIED THE DISPLAY AGAIN WAS REMOVED TO STORAGE BY THE NEW MANAGEMENT WHO WAS TIRED OF LOSING MONEY ON THE INTEREST ETC. THEN CAME BACK BENNY BINION WHO BROUGHT THE DISPLAY BACK TO LIFE. SEE THE PICTURE OF HIM AND BECKIE HIS DAUGHTER IN FRONT OF THE DISPLAY. NOTICE ON THE LEFT 7TH. ROW DOWN ... ONE OF THE BILLS FELL DOWN A LITTLE FROM THE MOVE AND HAD TO BE FIXED. BACK IN THE LATE 1970'S I HAD THE PLEASURE OF HAVING DINNER WITH MY FATHER IN LAW, AMARILLO SLIM, DOYLE BRUNSON, AND BENNY! WE HAD A BIG BOOTH IN THE REAR OF THE STEAKHOUSE ALMOST IN THE BASEMENT. THE BEST PORTERHOUSE STEAK AND KING CRAB LEGAS WERE HAD BY ALL ... AND MY FATHER IN LAW PICKED UP THE BILL! I ALSO RECENTLY TOOK PICTURES OF WHAT IS LEFT OF THE FAMILY HOUSE ON BONANZA RD. HERE IN LAS VEGAS ... JACK BINION NOW OWNS IT AND HAS LET IT GO IN SUCH DISREPAIR. THE CURRENT CARETAKERS LIVING IN THE REAR OF THE PROPERTY ARE VERY UNFRIENDLY AND WOULD NOT EVEN TALK ... NO PHOTOS THEY SAID. WELL ANOTHER PART OF LAS VEGAS HISTORY GOING TO HELL! YOUR COMMENTS ARE MOST WELCOMED. THANKS RICH BURGEL...
