Opera House Casino, it opened as the Opry House in 1978. It was located at 2542 Las Vegas Blvd North. It was located just 3.5 miles away from Downtown Las Vegas. We would imagine that the casino probably catered most to locals. However, we can also believe that the casino also drew in some enthusiastic Las Vegas tourists.
All Opry House chips were hot stamped. When the named changed to Opera House in 1985, the casino started out with hot stamped chips. Later, it would move to more colorful inlay chips that were Horse Head, Chipco, Unicorn and Paulson molds. There are many cool commemorative chips for different holidays.
