The $6.66 chip from Casino Chico is available at the cage. I was told by the club owner/manager that they used them only one time in gaming. It was too difficult to compute bets with such an odd amount (for example the blackjack insurance bet). So they just put those little devils into storage. At Casino Chico, try to get some of the old Casino Chico chips which apparently are quite rare. (They would not recite "Grand Rebirth.") If you could turn up any, I'd sure be interested. Also, there are some drop chips, denominations are $2, $3, and $4 I think. The club won't sell any but one or two did escape the casino.

Also check out Casino 99 near downtown Chico (and I always get lost trying to find that place). The old highway-sign chips were wearing down badly and the casino was to introduce new ones "sometime soon" which might be . . . now. If any new issues . . . again, I'd be interested.

And remember, never bring a squirrel to Chico!
