Well I made it to Harrington Raceway today and was able to be the first person in line to place some Sports bets on various events - see scans of tickets below. I bet on every Sporting Event they had listed including Hockey, Basketball, Soccer, Baseball and Football. Imagine I was one of the First people in the United States to ever make a Legal Single Bet Sports Bet outside of the State of Nevada. Delaware has had Football 3 Game Parlay Bets for several years but no single event wagering other than Horse Racing. Betting began at 1:30 pm and the machine spit out the first ticket at 1:30:38. Betting began at the same time in all 3 of Delaware's Casinos -Harrington Raceway, Dover Downs and Delaware Park.
While I was waiting in line I was interviewed and photographed making my bets by a reporter from a paper in Annapolis, MD. When I get a copy of the newspaper article I will post it here.
After getting all my sports bet tickets, I went downstairs to the Casino. I went to the Players Club and got a Players card. The guy handing out the cards looked kinda new so I asked him if I could get blanks of all the different cards. To my amazement he gave me blanks of all 4 cards - see scans below. This is the first time in years that I was able to get blank cards from this Casino.
I figured it was my "Lucky Day" so I went and played a "Buffalo Grand" slot machine. After playing for a few minutes, I switched over to another nearby "Buffalo Grand" machine. After only a few spins I got into the bonus round and hit a Jackpot for over $400.
What a Great Day - I made history, got interviewed for a newspaper article, got high level blank slot cards and won $400 - it doesn't get any better than that.

Take care,
Jerry "It was My Lucky Day" Birl
