Place Your Bets!
Looks like we'll finally be able to stop gambling at the gas station:
All bets could be on in Chicago this weekend at Medinah Temple if all goes as planned for Bally’s over the next few days at the corporation’s temporary casino inside the historic River North landmark.
The city’s first legal slot machines are already visible through the glass doors of the soon-to-open casino at 600 N. Wabash Ave. — and they’ll be taken for their first spins Wednesday and Thursday during practice gaming sessions under the supervision of state gambling regulators.
As long as Illinois Gaming Board Administrator Marcus Fruchter approves of how the cards fall, casino leaders are hoping he’ll deal them a temporary operating permit as early as Saturday, a Bally’s spokesperson said.
Any Robbery Missions on tap for the neighborhood? Asking for a friend.

Sports book next. That’s where the zort is.
CPS can teach the children to gamble responsibly.
They were putting up signs today for the "Taxi Cab standing area" in front of the place.
Tomorrow, the city is putting up "Car Jacker/Robbery Offender standing area" signs up across on the East side of the street.
You have to love the efficiency of the city.
" . . under the supervision of state gambling regulators."

"State gambling regulators" Haaaaaaaaa! That cracks me up !
The mission teams need to be inside, because thats where the real robberies will be taking place, behind the scenes
They promise if you get robbed walking out they will comp you with FREE Buffet tickets!
I just want to know how much Profit will go towards our pension.. period!?!?

Think the casino will ever report a profit? Sure the house will have a 3-5% edge, but it's a long journey with lots of entitled fingers between the floor cage and the corporate accountants. Add in the inflated costs of the goods and services the casino will pay to the correctly connected Chicago businesses.
You think the casino has fixed the results? Just wait until the Chicago Machine gets up to speed.
What is the over/under on the number of fights and shoving matches in the casino per week?
My bet is once per night, and thrice on weekends.
“Place your bets”. I bet a shooting in or around the joint by years end.
Would expect the robbery totals to skyrocket after Casino opens. Lookouts at every cash booth in Asian sending out descriptions of winners to all the loop parking lots. Better go in armed to the teeth or better yet don’t go at all. The life you save just might be your own.
I walked through river north a bit ago. Bad vibes all around there. It had a chance 10 years ago but with this and what's already there, AVOID....
A casino in Chicago?! I actually feel bad for the 18th District. We can't even protect downtown from a bunch of 14-year old thugs. Imagine what Dude Inc. will do inside and outside a River North dump like this. No one wants to go to a casino that has several armed guards in Level III body armor at the door and where half of the patrons smell like weed. I give it a month before several people get shot or a drag-racer crashes through the front doors. It's Doug & Busters or Chuck E. Cheese with slot-machines! {Honk Honk}
Robbery missions??? If you want to hit them hard you need outdoor roll calls and seat belt missions. That'll show everybody we mean business. And when they really push it. Contact cards galore.
This new casino place is probably expensive and would be cheaper to take a ride to Indiana casinos, which are better overall!
There’s probably a dozen people scoping out the comings and goings of the armor trucks.
What's stopping Chicago from becoming 'Lake Vegas?'
Oh wait.....
Read this blog enough and you'll know why.
It looks like another breeding ground for thieves.
That’s going to be a mess.
Good Rush Amusements is geared up for this.
I heard from a friend who has city hall contacts that the plan is to keep this casino going and that the new casino most likely will never be built and plans will be eventually scrapped.
I soon expect to see a news story about a large teen "Mob" (Demons) gathering around Medina Temple and kicking the shit out of some tourists and jumping on other innocents' vehicles while driving past in their cars.

Highland Park HS needs about 500 illiterate teen age boys who speak no English dumped in front of it next Monday morning. Thanks for the tip! Gonna give that address to our Sheriff today.
Remember, way back, when the Illinois Tollway revenue was going to end all of our problems?
Remember, way back, when the Illinois Lotto was going to end all of our problems?
Now a casino is going to end all of our problems!
Soon to come! An Illinois heroin dispensary. Surely that will solve all out problems!
And if it doesn't how about an Illinois Whore House? Oh wait! I forgot, we already have that. The Illinois legislature! headed by the lard ass, non tax paying Gov..
Profit towards your pension? Better hope your not drug tested soon.
Collecting an undiminished pension from here is a real gamble....
And INVITE Only List is....?

Our pension fund is for the casino oops I mean the casino is for our pension fund. DEFUND GOLD BRAID PENSIONS. NOW!
Soo...
Just wondering...
When about 20 or 30+ of these wrongfully demonized children brazenly walk into the casino and start scooping chips and cash off the tables-
Will they be able to just walk out, or will security/police be able to stop them??
Nice! Trying to balance the budget with drugs, abortions and gambling. Shit, even Capone wouldn't run that Trifecta.
You are gambling with your life downtown 😮
What do you want to bet someone gets jacked walking out of the place after winning?
Chicago is really late to the casino game!
This place will bust in a few years!
Will the Casino serve White Wine Spritzers? ( Asking for the Keeesing Bandit.)
FOID card holders in Cook Co hit about 1 in 4 wonder what Chicago numbers are
As of May, Cook County was closing in on nearly 750,000 FOID card holders. There are about 2.4 million FOID card holders across the entire state.

A strange plot twist in our game "GTA VII: Chicago". We thought we were the next Detroit or San Francisco but are actually turning into the dumps of Atlantic City or New Orleans.

Fire defunded gold braids awhile ago but we have more clowns with scrambled egg hats than larger departments so many overpaid political junkies! They will never get respect they deserve zero!
Imagine the “party buses” pulling up in front and 50 community members show up smelling like weed and Hennessy. What could possibly go wrong.
Not like they’ll have a strict dress code or anything.

White guilt morons up in Highland Park never cease to amaze.
How about 'enhancing' the simulation with some real-life illegal aliens? Clear out the District lobbies, send 'em all on up to the 'event' location. Conveniently located just minutes from Highway 41! Highland Park Country Club has lovely areas that can easily handle several thousand tents! Nearby clubhouse has shower, restroom, and pool facilities. Denny's for food, Target for 'shopping'....
Is Lawry's going to reopen across the street? Or have they pulled out all the fixtures? Maybe that old mansion would be a good illegal alien 'shelter'?
What's the over/under on 15 robberies from casino patrons in the first day?

Profit? Are you kidding? Don't believe that bs! There won't be no stinking profits! You see, the casino gots a lot of overhead. Wink-Wink!
They'll eventually fix it where the pension fund will be financially shoring up the casino, rather than the casino financially assisting the pension fund!
Chicago Works......for the connected!
Command Barz is gonna be a screaming fool when things start going south. He can’t handle the pressure.
If I’m not mistaken, doesn’t the ISP have a presence at casinos?
Where is parking for this casino?
How far do you have to walk to get to your parked car after a day/night of gambling?
Does anyone here really think that the patrons of this casino will be safe after exiting this casino?
How safe is the casino itself from the flash mobs?

Fights ??? I'd be more interested what the over/under is on a shooting happening outside the front doors before the end of the year !

There is no cash at the tables, other than in the pockets of the gamblers.
Chips are pieces of plastic, of no value outside the casino doors.
The cashiers are behind bullproof glass, within a secure area guarded by casino security.
Any dimwitted bunch that tries to mob the gambling customers won't have to be escorted out, as the gamblers will throw them out. And doing so will not be considered rude.
Chances of winning were probably better shooting dice at stateway gardens in the early 90s
One more scheme soon to be turned into another criminal enterprise under the auspicious of city, county and state officials. Let the excitement begin with more opportunities for Murder City corruption and Gangsta's rule. Once again making "Chicago Proud" - NOT!
CPD is way too top heavy. Eliminate the Captain or Commander spot! Most likely Captain because they are unionized!!
