The first casino we hit was the Hollywood Casino At Penn National Race Course. Despite having a lot to do and needing to prepare for my big trip this week, I surprised my mother by stopping at two casinos in Pennsylvania as we drove up I-81 toward home. Following a ridiculously bad (in a business sense) Star Trek convention that I dealt at in Towson, Maryland last weekend, I was driving home when my mother and I saw signs for two different casinos. I almost always quit while I am ahead and never play more than I can afford to lose, but my biggest problem in relation to casinos is that far too often I go into them at all. Last year, I was bitten by a bug while in Las Vegas and ever since I have been a responsible, if somewhat obsessive, gambler. The Basics: Fun, but hardly extraordinary, the Hollywood Casino At Penn National Race Course appealed equally to the geek in me as it did to the gambler.
The Good: Good games, Interesting museum, Plenty of dining options
