This car was built by the legendary "kustom" car designer George Barris in 1966. It was used in the movie "Easy Come, Easy Go" – it features surfboards as seatbacks, shag upholstery, a "Go-Go" buton on the dashboard, a meat thermometer temperature gauge and orange porch lamps. After the movie it was repurposed as the Jokermobile on the "Batman" TV series.
Impressively big Titanic set.
Love it!
I totally forgot Hollywood had props in their casinos. This one is on-theme for our trip!
We got to Tunica, MS around dinner time. Our first stop was the Hollywood Casino.
They were playing a short movie about the underground tunnels.
We were very surprised when all of those people were gathered to watch the documentary: Vikings Journey to the New World.
After lunch we moved downstairs to the Atrium for coffee and reading. Around 3:30 we started noticing a LOT of people gathering. We didn't have a schedule so we waited to see what was coming up.
