Harrah's Casino & Hotel ~ Metropolis, IL

Welcome to Harrah's Casino on the Ohio River in Metropolis, IL! This is about 45 minutes south of us. We thought we'd check out the hotel while we were in Metropolis.

Looks like Travis Tritt will be performing here soon! Come on up! (Looks like he may have had a little botox, or maybe the photo is just retouched?)

Here is the entrance to the casino from the hotel. Must be 18 to enter so here they come back up. DENIED! (Nah - they just really went down to check out the entrance)

An OLD gambling machine. These were throughout the wings of the hotel. After touching most of them we saw the "do not touch" sign.

Here's the Watling Draw Poker built in 1900. By 1896 card machines were in virtually all of San Francisco's cigar stores and saloons. All of these were really cool!
