I apologize for the crappy pictures

Funny story about the first pic (big beer glasses from Flamingo). I was riding in the elevator with a full one when a guy in a suit asked me if I like the deal (mug was $5.95 or something full with beer and refills were only $2 or $3). I said "It's great!". He said "Thanks" and gave me his card. He was the director of Beverage Ops. lol

Thanks JSR. Those photos are tantalizing. A little sharper would be good but thanks anyway. Your pictures reminded me that I have a few old glasses from the good old days. I have a reasonably good Fuji camera (7.0 megapixels) and had a really hard time getting decent pictures of them.

This one was a lot of work - retouching and special effects - (in Paint Shop Pro)...



These two were easy (using macro mode on the camera)...

Here's a souvenir from a place that doesn't get much mention. I kinda liked the Old Reno. The big ridiculous glass is what that 28 oz Budweiser came in.



This one's from the American Superstars show at the Flamingo. It was a really entertaining show which my wife and I saw two or maybe three times. We paid once then won tickets on that promotions free slot they once had by the slot club booth.

Those pictures are just great. Thanks to all that have posted their pictures. JSR- I just cannot figure out what some of those are. Is it possible to tell us a name to go with the pictures? That blue one sure looks interesting and familiar.
