As a teenage boy, I always dreamed of going to the Playboy Club. I would sneak peeks at the magazine that I was not supposed to read and I saw what I thought was the pinnacle of success, Hugh Hefner. In 1988, my dreams were crushed. The last one closed.
But, last year, my dreams were rekindled. The Palms Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas opened the newest Playboy Club. And they added a new element to my dream, gambling.
A croupier in a bunny suit. What a fantasy! But why am I writing about this today? Well, the answer is that the concept has been so successful, that the Playboy Club is looking to open a new club in London. As a matter of fact, the Las Vegas club is taking in triple the amount of cash than any other casino tables in Vegas. That recipe for success is hoping to be repeated across the pond.
London used to be a site for the legendary club, but there was a scandal that Playboy was later cleared of that closed it and it never reopened. It was legendary for VIPs and high rollers from all over the world. The re-opening will undoubtedly attract a whole new list of luminaries, as well as some of the old ones. Hef will be there, he will be pushing 85 when it opens (incidentally, his girlfriends ages combined will still not equal that!) I will eventually make the journey, as I love traveling, I love gambling and I love Playboy bunnies!
So you bunny croupiers get ready to spin the will and roll the ball, because, I'm coming and I wanna make some dreams come true!
