I wrote awhile back about the addmission prices and other changes to Hollywood Casino in Aurora. An interesting note on Grand Victoria in Elgin is that they are NOT at this time planning to charge an admission fee. Also, no other changes in restaurant hours or the elimination of the VIP Lounge was noted. Also, no charge for parking...in fact valet parking is FREE for ALL players Mon-Thurs. I find this a brilliant ploy on their part to lure the disgruntled players away from Hollywood which is only about 20 miles to the south. I know many people who go to either/or as they live close to both. I bet they start going to one more than the other.

Recent mailers indicate that Grand Vic is now tied into the Mandalay One Club system.
