Went up to a blackjack table asking if they had them, lady didn't really understand me. I said it again, she points to the $1 chips, I said, "No no no, the $5 Turn 4 chips." I had another in my hand to show. She pulled 4 from the tray, spread them and then I pointed to it, she smacked my hand a bit like I wasn't able to touch it... Called another lady to watch and she starts looking at me like I'm crazy that I only wanted those chips. Luckily we had just done a delivery to Ellis for a blackjack table they bought from us so the guy who was helping us receive the table came over to make sure we got what we needed.

always fun stories when harvesting live chips in vegas. the fun never stops. But I have to say, I've never been smacked before! haha
Those are sketchy AF. The Downtown Grand is nowhere near the actual course/circuit/track, and has nothing to do with F1 (which they have carefully, and I guess smartly, avoided mentioning on the chip itself.) I mean, obvious attempt to capitalize on the event, but they're making it sound like Downtown .... Grand Prix, when it's really Downtown Grand .... Prix.
I think if you mispronounce Prix, it's about right.

Downtown Grand Prix would be pretty awesome though. 3/4 naked buxters standing on the track, drivers have to take a drink every lap, and a zipline to carry you the length of the straightaway.
...and unlike the strip, drivers won't have to pay $20 for pitting.

They are available in the poker room, average 10-20 mixed in racks. GL!
Inlays suck, but I don't actually hate the chips...
Are the $5 edge spots like almond? reminds me of the T.I. $5
any snappers or drop chips visible?
Agreed; horrible inlays but I really like the spots. Good mix, will look good in stacks.
Well, not exactly sure how I feel about these, on one hand, kind of a "modern" design. On the other hand, I hate them.

Another Vegas $1 moving to the hotstamp. Dollars are becoming the new frac of Vegas.

I said elsewhere (maybe in the mail thread, I don't remember) that I'll take hot stamp clay chips over ICON every day.
Some of them do have decent stamps too. This one, not so much.
Two error hundos, wow! Oh, wait….
Anyone heading down to Fontainebleau in Vegas tonight? I'm curious what their chips will look like.
Edit: Silly me, I should have used the search bar. Looks like there is already a thread on this. https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/fontainebleau-las-vegas.110364/

I hope they have Icons or ceramics! 
Vegas casinos now have a long track record of letting me down, so don't frowny-face my hopes.

Shows how tastes differ so much. Worst spots, house mold, and colour combos of 2023.
FontaineEWWW…

It the center raised, with a "donut" label?
Can't say I love it, but if that is an entirely new chip concept, I could see using a drill and making an I Ching coin set if similar chips ever made it to a chiproom sale.
