That is what I plan on doing as well. Ive been to STL twice, and both times Ive run into the nicest people you would ever meet and also some of the most vile human beings you would ever meet. No in between. I plan on staying at the Casino that is now open, supposed to be really nice. Casino you say..., like one of those riverboat ones with only slot machines, or a real one? Not interested in fake nice midwesterners, I have family. No it's a real one on land, hotel attached. http://www.hollywoodcasinostlouis.com/
