Ellis Island coupon hassle

[Buddha]

I suggest anybody going to Ellis Island with the $10 ACG matchplay coupon ... print out Steve's posting above (Nov.12, 7:27pm), like I'm going to do.

Then, if Pete, or anyone else, gives you a hard time about the coupon, you can show them the printed word from higher up ....

I was at EI on Monday, the 12th. As others have stated, they readily accept the drink coupons and we ate the BBQ and used a 2 for 1 coupon with no problem whatsoever. As long as the 2/1 coupon is used for a menu item it will be accepted at either dining area.

So there does not appear to be any problem with the casino not wanting to honor their coupons, only that guy Pete at the tables.

Pete does act like we are criminals using the matchplay. He jokes all the time that he is going to have a detective follow me all day. Not a joke I think is funny. I love using coupons but hate feeling like i'm doing something wrong.

I'm going to Las Vegas this weekend.

While I'm there I will visit Ellis Island and see what happens when I try to use the matchplay coupon.

Any idea of the best time for me to visit so that Pete's there?

I'll let everyone know what happens when I try to use the matchplay.

'Pete''s off days : Tuesdays & Wednesday

'Pete''s on-duty hours : 12:00-noon to 9:00-PM (roughly)

(I frequent Ellis Island a lot so I know).

OK. Thanks.

By the way, do you ever have a problem if you use the coupon on craps or roulette?

About 2-years ago, the $10-match play coupon was not allowed to be used on craps or roulette (blackjack only).

But, now, no problems at all, as you're allowed to use 1-match play coupon per day, everyday.
