    What a shock to see this video, I live in St louis. Charlie Gitto's by me in Chesterfield burn down a few years ago, you ate at one of the two remaining. Have you ever thought of publishing your future casino visits to cities so fans like me can meet you in person. Raja does that. I went to a meet and greet with him a year ago at the River City Casino in St louis. Both of you have about the same amount of subscribers on your primary channel. I like yours better. I think your "Jason was there" channel is very unique and will grow very fast. Great job.

Your buddy looks like Aaron Rodgers, but also sounds like him!! Always interesting to watch these videos. The tab is always around one slot spin for you I've noticed.

    We love Charlie Gitto’s! We always eat there when we stay at Hollywood. My husband’s favorite is the house salad and boiled ravioli with red sauce. Mine is the seafood pasta Suzanne, yum! We were disappointed in the calamari the last time we were there, normally very good.

    Mr. “HandPay”, wish I could’ve met you. The steakhouse is great, but Charlie’s is more reasonably priced and great food.. Gordon Ramsay‘s was downtown golden horseshoe. They are wonderful ..be careful what you play at Hollywood Casino. They take more than they give… but I wish you a jackpot!
