Coin slots live at the Fitz
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 5/23/08
The most exciting thing for me at the Fitz was that they still have a token number of slots that take either quarters or dollar tokens. It was so much fun to relieve those 'old' days of sliding in the coins and pulling the handle. One of the attentdants who came to fill up my hopper told me that they keep those because some of their guests like them and that they are the only hotel in Tunica that has them. That tells me a lot about them that they would cater that much to their guests. We came to the Fitz from the Gold Strike who was under renovation. Do not go there thinking it will be okay..electronic jackhammers at 8:30 a.m. are awful. But the Fitz was great..they got us right in and the bed was absolute heaven. It is a little isolated from the other casinos, but we had a car and did not mind the drive. I did really well the first two nights there, but lost quite a bit the last night and they did not seem too interested in comping things, so I have some doubts that I would go back, but it was a Godsend to even get a room on that short of a notice and a great rate.
