    cute, but plagiarized

    BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW ...

    • One of the wisest gambler was Foghorn Leghorn. Mr. Leghorn,
    despite the disadvantage of being a cartoon chicken, made one
    of the most profound observations of the modern age.
    He once noted the following:
    “You can argue with me, boy, but you can’t argue with math.”


    • Las Vegas set a new record in 2015 with 42,312,216 visitors.
    It also hosted 21,306 conventions and trade shows that year.


    • Dr. Edward Thorp worked with Claude Shannon in the late
    1950s and early 1960s on the world’s first pocket-sized computer.
    It was built to forecast the resting place of the ball in roulette.
    Their system gave them an expected profit of 44% per spin.


    • By 1942, each week more than 4,000 soldiers were graduating from
    the Las Vegas Gunnery School, later known as Nellis Air Force Base.
    The government spent over $25 million building and operating the facility.


    • In the 19th century, faro became the No. 1 banking game of chance in the U.S.

    • It wasn’t until around 1919 that special green-felted gambling tables were designed.

    • All slot machines play the same music; they are all tuned in to the musical key of
    “C” so that when slot machines are near each other they won’t clash in their music.


    • The reason dice have dots (pips) on them instead of numbers is because dice were
    invented long before most people could read numbers.
