But the absence of cars made parking by the door quite easy. It alarmed me that the parking lot outside of Buffalo Bill’s Casino was so empty and the valet service area was blocked off.
Sorry, no valet service today…or tomorrow….Īfter stopping at Terrible’s to snap some photos and check on the condition of the property, I continued onto Primm, just a short ways away. I also noticed that the aging and suffering Gold Strike Casino in nearby Jean had gotten a fresh coat of paint along with a new name – Terrible’s Road House. Traffic was minimal and I got a nice view of the Seven Magic Mountains art exhibit along the way. The former Gold Strike Casino Hotel got a little TLC…Īs expected, the morning drive was pleasant and pretty. Magic Mountains, south of the Strip in the desert… I could stroll through Buffalo Bill’s Casino, grab a quick breakfast at their value-priced buffet, perhaps ride the spectacular Desperado hyper-coaster and pick up some bargains at those awesome outlets. With families undoubtedly about to fill the restaurants and buffets for Mother’s Day brunch, I decided to hop on the interstate and revisit that place from long ago. This morning, after a miserable week on the couch with a cold, I awoke feeling somewhat better and desiring to get out of the house. The drive through the desert to get there was very scenic and a pleasant escape from the hustle and bustle of the Strip. I’d grown an affection for that little collection of casino hotels and the Primm Fashion Outlet at its center. One suggestion was on taking a day trip to Primm, Nevada at the California State Line.

And I’m guessing that after what went down between us, he’s wishing he’d have taken the holiday off to be with his wife.īack in the summer of 2013, I was a brand new writer for. Surely you’d have to find some purpose to justify your continued employment, right? Well, this Mother’s Day I found myself in the crosshairs of old Security Guard “Norman”. Well, imagine that you’re an aging security guard in a forgotten shopping mall where most of the stores have closed down and you can count the number of customers on one hand. Sometimes he has to remind himself that he can still roar”. There’s a wonderful moment in the 1981 film On Golden Pond in which a young boy asks Katharine Hepburn’s character “Ethel” why her aging husband (played by Henry Fonda) is so prickly. Let’s revisit my own experience with the coaster, the resort and the decaying outlet mall that are barely surviving in Primm Valley… Several news outlets reported last week (2/13/20) that Desperado Rollercoaster at Buffalo Bill’s Casino had officially closed until further notice with only a small chance that it would reopen. …or “How To Chase Away Your Final Remaining Customers”…
