Hey guys, got my tickets and my reservations for the Ole Miss game figured out but had a question for those of you who have been down. Is there anyone that runs a shuttle from Tunica (Goldstrike) to Owford on Game day. I googled it and it lead me to some place in Memphis called "RaysRays" who said about four could fit in the his car and he would get us there early and stay late for $400. For some reason I think there has to be something better. I called the Casino and they said someone else might organize something but it is not done through them. I would be willing to Pony up and get everything scheduled with deposits and all if there was a big enough group. I plan on drankin' before and after and not rush around and want to be safe. Only Option besides this is a cab service I guess.

He must be staying at the Gold Strike Casino about 20 -25 miles south of Memphis. There is 8-10 casinos there or was several years ago. People call it Tunics but the casinos are actually in Robinsonville, MS. Back when I gambled my favorite casinos were there. I liked it much better than Las Vegas or god awful Atlantic City.

If you're a gambler and you use your rewards card, ask the casino host if you have enough points to get limo service to and from the game. You may have to chip in some scratch, but you would be surprised what can be obtained with a smile and a history of table play.

Call Gold Strike casino 1-888-245-7829 ask for casino host Vicki Easterling. I would put zero trust in any car rider crap.

I dont gamble much but I tried my luck at Tunica a few years back. Went into the casino with $200 and purposely left my ATM card in my car. Playing $1 slots, I was up to around $5500, lost it all, along with my initial $200. I went out to my car to get my ATM card and lost another $200. All of this within 3 hrs.

Sams Town might do it if you stay at the hotel -- I think they are good about shuttles but you might or might not , have to drop some cash (or win a big JP) in the casino - give it a shot of the GoldStrike doesnt come through

I was selling food and coaching when tunica opened their first casino, Splash. They charged $20 to get in the door. I'd get sent on multiple runs to replenish the food from the buffets. Sysco foods #'s skyrocketed. Then it boomed and grew 10fold. Golf trips were made, condos built.
Now it's smoky and nasty. Not sure why people decide to go down and spend what little they have, but it's a rough place, and you don't want to be on a bus of any kind in regards to a casino. I've seen **** go down after crazy idiots have lost all their $50 and I've seen somebody crap themselves trying to act like a stripper.
And use a napkin to grab the tongs at the buffet as there is a buildup of smoke/boogers/taint/meth on the ladles.

I am traveling with ALL Seasons Travel and we are staying at the Gold Strike. If you go to there website you will find a total package for hotel, bus to game etc. but if you do not want to pay for the whole package they also just have a sign up for the bus they are taking the whole group in to the game. Just look up ALL Seasons Travel on the internet, click on sports travel and then of course UT travel.
