Legendary broadcaster Brent Musburger sits down with legendary oddsmaker Jimmy Vaccaro to reflect on a life in vegas, bookmaking and his favorite stories in the business.
Ezedez, I'm 83 and remember the old churchhill downs with the Chalk Bd high on the wall. Two BJ tables with masking tape on the torn green felt. Bunch a payphones outside on wall, an the old guy there to answer them. Gave me his card with phone number and time to call for the early lines back in Cincy. All those wonderful old casinos! 99c crab an lobster bowls downtown. $1.99 10oz. strip steak/potatoe/salad/drink Binion's! Showboat boxing. Leroy's downtown book. Stardust my favorite book. Barbary Coast my favorite hotel/breakfast cinnamon rolls. Had my only GOLDEN ROLL ($27k) at Gold Nugget. I may be a dinosaur but u cant erase MY good times.

Really nice listening to old stories from these 2. I got the Vegas bug sometime in the 80s. I remember seeing the old mgm burned and later the lights of the town, and the sounds of coins falling, people yelling and the smell. It all got me hooked😁😂😂

Enjoyed the conversation really good stuff would like to hear Jimmy’s view and how he handles referees/umpires who are as much a factor in most games as the players. Do they track officiating teams, records, calls, etc.?
