How come you always load your ‘Penthouse’ when I’m in the nude?

Gaming Control Board member Randy Sayre is nipping any idea of nude dealers in the bud. “A resounding unacceptable,” Sayre told me.

Sayre had seen the catchy headline over an online story in casinogamblingweb.com that declared: “Penthouse May Bring Nude Dealers To Las Vegas Casino.”

The day before, Penthouse CEO Marc Bell (right) had told our Norm Clarke he was interested in buying a casino on the Las Vegas Strip. Bell said the dealers could include Penthouse models.

Sounds like someone at the online website assumed the dealers would be nude.

Or hoped.

Never gonna happen.

Read more blogs, it's good for you.

And just for fun and too explain that obscure headline:

By Jane Ann Morrison / RJ

Steve Wynn isn’t the only casino developer who deserves credit for changing the face of Las Vegas. Jay Sarno, who opened Caesars Palace in 1966 and Circus Circus in 1968, more than earned his share of credit too.
