HARVEST ADVENTURES FROM AN ADDICTED CHIP COLLECTOR

Hello Chippers; Here is a short story from yours truly or a guest author of our experiences while harvesting somewhere in the gaming world. A few are from countries out side the USA. Most are entertaining and most are instructive as to what to do or what not to do while harvesting chips from casinos or card rooms.
Some people have compulsions to gamble, some to amass fortunes and other’s, they just like to write stories; yeah, that would be me. I was never very good at it; but I have done it over the years just the same.
If any of you want any inside info on any casino that I’ve been to, I would be happy to tell you what I can.

PERSONAL HARVESTING STORIES

RUNNING ACES HARNESS PARK COLUMBUS, MN

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

NANCY AND I WERE IN THE MIDST OF A TRIP UP TO BATTLE CREEK, MI (THE LONG WAY THROUGH THE UPS) FOR THEIR 2ND SHOW. WE HAD COME FROM WATERLOO, IA ON THAT LEG OF THE JOURNEY. DRIVING THROUGH MINNEAPOLIS-ST PAUL WAS A HARROWING EXPERIENCE TO YOURS TRULY, AS IS ALL LARGE CITIES. WE HAD STOPPED A BIT AT THE LITTLE SIX CASINO EARLIER FOR A FEW CHIPS.
WHEN WE GOT TO COLUMUS, MN WE WERE BASICALLY LOST. ANY WE FINALLY FOUND OUR WAY TO THE “TRACK”. WE WANTED TO GRAB A BITE TO EAT. WHAT WE FOUND WAS QUITE EXTRAORDINARY.
WE TOLD THE YOUNG LADY THAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR ANY ARTICLES WITH THE LOGO FROM RUNNING ACES. WHEN WE WALKED OUT OF THE PLACE WE HAD TWO SHOPPING BAGS OF GOODIES. WE HAD SEVERAL DECKS OF CARDS, COUNTLESS TRINKETS, T-SHIRTS AND CHIPS FROM THE BACK OF THE CASHIERS CAGE. I FELT THAT THE YOUNG LADY COULD OF DOUBLED AS THE CHAIRMAN OF THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE FOR THE TOWN OF COLUMBUS, MN.
RUNNING ACES HAD ONLY BEEN OPEN ABOUT A YEAR. IT WAS A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE AND VERY GOOD HARVEST, CLEVERLY DISGUISED AS A PIT STOP…REGGIE
