After 5 years of patiently waiting, I finally bought one! If the eBay seller who sold me this happens to read what I posted, thank you for an amazing opportunity!

For those of you who have asked, the Riviera Casino & Hotel closed on May 4, 2015. A year later, it was demolished and imploded. What remains is a well paved parking lot.

Thank you so much for 800 likes!

Another Riviera legend has passed away. I actually saw his comedy act at The Orleans back in October of 2014. Believe it or not, Bob Saget was in attendance. Don will be missed.

Seeing as how there aren't too many of these on eBay, I decided to buy one for myself. I guess this particular jacket was for the high rollers of the former Riviera Casino.

I just bought this and I'm happy to be adding it to my collection of memorabilia from "The Riv." Does anybody remember when George Burns celebrated his 96th Birthday Party there? Did you sign the banner?
