Catholic churches & casinos
John9362:
This may come as a surprise to those of you not living in Las Vegas, but there are more Catholic churches than casinos. Not surprisingly, some worshipers at Sunday services will give casino chips rather than cash when the basket is passed.
Since they get chips from many different casinos, the churches have devised a method to collect the offerings. They send all their collected chips to a nearby Franciscan monastery for sorting and then the chips are taken to the casinos of origin and cashed in.
This is done by the chip monks.

I live in Vegas and had never heard of that! where's that monastery? we have an assault team standing by to storm in and get the chips!

Hi Theo,
Living in Vegas, have you been across the new suspended or arched bridge at Bolder Dam?
I hear it provides a thrill a minute when it is windy and I wondered if most visitors are using it instead of the dam road that we used 20 years ago.
