We haven't been to the casino in a while. Not since February, to celebrate birthdays for The Pony and me. We've just been busy doing other things. Well. Not so much ME. I pretty much do the bare minimum every day, heh, heh. And the weather has been stormy, or floody. But The Pony went to a casino yesterday, with cousin Niecy. They have been trying to coordinate such a trip for a year or more.
Anyhoo... The Pony was quite disappointed to find that the slot machine which paid out a $16,633.47 jackpot on Christmas Eve morning had been removed!!! The Pony looked all over the casino, but it was gone. I guess maybe it was paying out too much! Too bad. It was version of Huff 'n' Puff, with pigs and a wolf.
The Pony found a new piggy kind of game to play.
It looks like fun to me. The Pony was not impressed, saying it ate a $20 bill right away. Still, if they have this machine next time I get to a casino, I will give it a try.
Here's another new machine. I don't know what this one is called, since I can't see the name.
Looks like The Pony won $283.75 on a 75-cent bet. Of course I would also try this game! The Pony and Niecy had a good time. The Pony left a minimal loser. I don't know about Niecy. Surely I would have heard if she hit a big jackpot. They had lunch out, but The Pony forgot to take pictures.
At least I got a little taste of the casino...

I haven't been to a casino since the late 1980s and even then went only once, we were a group of people out for Christmas dinner and then the casino.
River,
The first time I went was in the late 1980s, when I met Farmer H. Things have changed a lot. Used to be, we bought tokens the size of quarters, and carried them around in a plastic cup. The sound of them clanging into the tray when you won was a happy sound. Now it's all electronic, bills or paper tickets inserted, a ticket comes out with your winnings. They're trying to push electronic transactions now. NO WAY! I'm not using a "digital wallet" thingy to gamble with!
