Something like $10 sportsbets and maybe I'd put $20 into the VP machine, and if I lost it, I'd be done.Went looking for these machines after seeing this site, and had a ton of fun playing them! Payout was great on the $10 coins, and then just trade the duplicates in at the cashier for more money to keep trying! The $40 coins are much tougher to get. This was all for small money, by the way. While I was the height of an adult at age 15 (probably about 5'8'-5'9'), my face looked 15. I did play a little video poker at age 15 (by playing machines facing the wall, where my face couldn't be seen), and also placed a few sportsbets, where oddly no one questioned my age (but I was smart enough to give the winning tickets to my dad to cash). I actually was very fascinated by Vegas in general as a kid, and couldn't wait to turn 21 so I could really gamble. Even at age 9, I was fascinated that an entire television channel (albeit an in-house one) was dedicated to just fire safety. not because I was scared, but just because it was something to do when bored in the room. I found the 'fire safety' channel on the TV, and kept watching it over and over again. I actually believed them and wasn't scared anymore. When we stayed there the subsequent year, in order to calm my concerns about staying in a place where people just died the year before, my parents told me that the made the hotel especially safe because of what happened.

My parents showed me the newspaper with the picture of the burnt slot machines.

That's also why I've had some health problems recently. I just am fortunate that I look very young for my age. I've been masquerading as being in my 40s, but in reality, I am 62 years old. If you recall, there was a fire there in 1980.I stayed in the MGM in the early 80sDo you recall that fire? How old were you in 1980?I knew someone would ask this, given that I stated that I 'stayed in the MGM in the early 80s', yet most don't believe I was old enough to be taking Vegas trips then.
