WELCOME TO THE BRIGHTEST STAR ON FREMONT STREET, THE MINT <br> <br> <br> And we would like to tell you about some of the features or our clu. They were designed with YOU in mind, and we just want to make sure you know about them. First, there’s our big, big sign. It towers almost nine stories high, and on top there’s a 16 food star. Our entire building had to be built around this sign- it weighs 22 tons, and uses more power than the average Las Vegas resort hotel. There are 11,000 bulbs and nearly 3 miles of neon tumbling … so we had to put in a couple of elevators to maintain this super-gorgeous sign. Now we come back inside THE MINT to our interior decorations, a combination of advanced contemporary and Old English art forms There are beautiful murals adapted from playing cards, rich wood paneling- and some of the walls are made entirely of petrified wood. <br> There’s a Cocktail Lounge, a Snack Bar, the Restaurant, Two Bars, a Barber Shop and a Gift Shop-and of course the Casino, where Twenty One and Roulette and CRaps is provided for your fun and entertainment. <br> <br> <br> And speaking of the Restaurant … everything served to you is made right in our own immaculate kitchen. Rolls and pastries are baked fresh daily-cooking of your order is done right before your eyes-and when it comes to meat we serve only Prime Easter Beef. <br> If you play the slot machines (and who doesn’t) you are protected on jackpots payoffs in 4 ways, i.e. (1) a tube lights up on the machine; (2) a buzzer sounds on the machine; (3) the number of the machine is flashed on a board above the entrance and (4) the jackpot is called out on the public address system by the Cashere. <br> Did we leave out anything? If we did and you want to know about it, please feel free to ask any employee. We are all here to serve you and make you comfortable and happy. If this is your first time in our club, or your hundred and first, please know how very welcome you are and how much we appreciate you. <br> So enjoy yourself-and when you visit Fremont Street the next time, remember us, <br> THE MINT <br>
