Fremont Casino | Las Vegas, Nevada

EOS M3 and EF-M 22 2.0 STM

I've spent more time around the Fremont Casino than I care to admit but at least I managed to shoot its neon from multiple angles. Graphically I like this image better than straight but you can't read all the signage.

The Fremont has tiny rooms, bedsheets give me a rash (insecticide?), is smoky as hell and ain't pretty inside. Can't say it has a good selection of beer but the Paradise Buffet is good for busta gut types. But it's all about location: middle of the Fremont Street Experience makes it prime real estate and a convenient base to casino hop from. It's a stone's throw from Binions, Golden Nugget and a dozen other casinos.

Crowds of older Hawaii folks fill the Fremont making it almost as popular with islanders as the California and Main Street Station (slightly looser slots probably helps). The abundance of kupuna, neighbor island and rural Oahu gamblers impart a rustic old Hawaii vibe. You often see kupuna at the tables stroke their mojo and shout "us go chance 'em brah!"
