El Cortez Presents: JACKIE

Jackie Gaughan almost always wore ties - his impressive collection included one with a leprechaun on it for St. Patrick’s Day - and his son said he ran out of gas so often that he kept an extra gallon in the trunk of his 1960s-era Ford Thunderbird convertible. Every time he went to a Chinese restaurant, he ordered the same thing: strawberry chicken. He often bagged the leftovers and took them to a gentleman who worked the sports book at El Cortez. Here's to you, Jackie ♥
