I'm going to Lake Charles in Louisiana this weekend. Is it fun? How far of a drive from Houston? Anything to do other than hit the casino?
Sweet Lake Chuck. Haven't been there in a couple years. Used to go a lot during college to gamble. I've been to two places in that town, Isle of Capri Casino, and Players' Island Casino (now called Harrah's?).
How far is it from Houston (driving)? I am only about and hour and a half from Tunica, Mississippi (third largest gambling resort in America) but would love to go to Lake Charles if it isn't too far from H-Town, say 2-3 hours, when I'm down there.
I like to go to Cushada (or however you spell it). It is an hour further to dirve, but is worth it. In my opinion the boats in Lake Charles suck.
this is the best one though boomboom "Went to $hort Dog's house, they was watchin Yo! MTV Raps What's the haps on the craps? Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em Roll 'em in a circle of *homies* and watch me break 'em with the seven, seven-eleven, seven-eleven Seven even back do' Lil' Joe Picked up the cash flow Then we played bones, and I'm yellin domino Plus nobody I know got killed in South Central L.A. Today was a good day."
I ALL you like to do is gamble, then I guess it's OK. It's a couple of hours from Houston. If you'd like to see and do more, and you've got some more time, stop there and gamble for an hour or two and then drive another 3 and a half hours to NOLA. You can gamble there too, but there's SO MUCH more to do in the big easy.
