I hear that they are resigning themselves to the nature of Downtown and are just rearranging the letters in Binion's Horseshoe to form Hobo's Noise Shrine.

You got a lot of crap for that typo didn't you? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

The word on the street is that the name will be "the Horseshoe", dropping the Binion.

no you got it reversed. Harrah's owns the 'Horseshoe' trademark, so when management reverts back to the property owners MTR Gaming in 2005, they will not be able to use that word in the name.

if anything, I've read that it will be called just "Binion's".

here is the original acquisition announcement

"Binion's place that smells like an ashtry but has a kind of famous wall of poker players stuck next to the snack bar and sports book"

Is that too long? BPTSLAABHAKOFWOPPSNTTSBASPB for short.
