The Slot Finder for the Caesar's properties lists no Feud, Jeopardy, or Password anywhere, and the only TPIR machines are penny slots in Atlantic City, Kansas City, New Orleans, and Windsor (Ontario) - none in Nevada.  Lots of DoND and WoF all over the place.  (In fact, my biggest slot win was $125 on a dollar Wheel slot at the Golden Nugget in Vegas, about five years ago.)

I have just returned from my trip to Vegas.  After recovering from my 2 day hangover, lol, here\'s the scoop.  ALL of the Rod Roddy and Drew Carey Price machines are gone from The Strip and Fremont Street.  In a few places there is a TPIR Plinko machine, but it plays completely different than the former.  It does feature the current models, but they do not have a speaking role.  The announcer is George Gray.  You can find many variations of Wheel of Fortune, even the old school Wheel machines in some places, &  Deal or No Deal no matter where you go.  In a few places you can still find the Press Your Luck slot machine.  In Treasure Island and on Fremont Street they have The Amazing Race.  Here\'s the big surprise, In two casinos on Fremont Street you can still find The Joker\'s Wild slot machines!!  Still plays great and even won $60 bucks profit off of it!!  That\'s all I can remember for now.  If anything else comes to mind, I\'ll let you know.

A tad sad to play with Charlie O\'s voice on it though. I wonder if there\'s a precedent for updating the slots if someone dies. Do slots like this get software updates, or do they just leave it?

 


I think they just leave it. In 2006, I was in Las Vegas and played a Price is Right slot machine featuring Rod Roddy\'s voice, even though he had died three years before.

I just returned from a few days at the Treasure Bay casino in Mississippi, and Wheel of Fortune is the only game show slot machine there. That's the bad news, though I'm thinking others like Beau Rivage and Island View have TPIR, Let's Make A Deal, etc.

The good news? Just moments before we checked out, I won close to $900 on Quest for Riches (wanted to go for $1,000, but took the credit prize and added it to my winnings with about 50 free spins of over 500 remaining)!! I really did press my luck this morning!!!

Monty's is terrific. It helps that his game show is based on risk and dumb luck. The most annoying when you're trying to sleep in your room at the Luxor: Wheel of Fortune. Between the audience chant and the "new puzzle" bells, it'll drive you to drink.
