Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN A SIX ARROWS TOURNEY.
I HAVE PLAYED IN IT A FEW TIMES THE ONLY REASON I REMEMBER THAT IS THEY USUALLY HAVE IT ON A DEER HUNTING WEEKEND (THAT WAS A HINT FOR JOE ALSO. LOL)
ALTHOUGH I HAVE NOT HEARD ABOUT THIS YEARS YET MYSELF!

Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

If you go into sixarrows.org they list their tournaments. I know there is a tourney in Mille Lacs in November, but I don't remember which one it is.

Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

We had a Six Arrows event there last year & hoped to get another one but were unsuccessful. Apparently pool players don't gamble enough. HAHA
So no tournament there with Six Arrows anyway - drat!
Sorry...

Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

I take exception to that comment that pool players don't gamble enough

Re: Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

I called and they still had a 'pool tournatment 2". Joe/Linda: Do you need to take this off their books or is someone else having a tournament up there???????

Re: Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

Wanna bet????

Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

The LCO Casino in Hayward, WI has a tournament in November (Dr. Pool), but I'm unsure of the date.

Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

I just called Mille Lacs and talked to Events, Entertainment, & the Sales depts. None of them know about any pool tournament. Nothing on the calendar. Our next Six Arrows tournament is Hinckley, Jan. 20-2.
Note to BillyB: My statement about pool players & gambling was facetious as I know most pool players love to gamble!!:)

Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

Joe, you need to forward these messages to the Mille Lacs Casino Marketing department, I for one as a Band Member of Mille Lacs, did not like the response of what they told you, that pool players do not gamble enough! and I disagree with their marketing departments remark! any kind of business within our Casino's, to me is good business, regardless if your a gambler or not.

Re: Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

I agree...maybe everybody doesn't spend thousands of $$$ on gambling, but we definitely spend $100's before the weekend is done....whether it's in the lodging, restaurants and some in the casino

Or, at least I do....normally more in the casino than in the restaurant!!!

Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

Linda: Thanks for checking, but when I called, they said they had something called 'pool tournament #2' and they gave me a group discount. Did you just have a hold on the date or something?

Re: Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

I don't think we should be asked to gamble more to play in pool tournaments???????

Re: Re: Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

Come on now Janene. The casinos are the ones frontin the thousands added. They want to make money. There not doin it to support pool. Its all about the Bling baby.
lol

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

OK, you figured out it was me. I still don't think I should have to donate to the casino to play in a tournament.

Prove to me they're not making a lot off rooms, etc. Are they turning people away to hold the pool tournament.

I guess if we're stupid enough to continue donations, can't blame them for taking it.



Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

I emailed the casino. There is a tournament that weekend and if you want further information they suggested you call Kellie Gretschmann at 1-800-626-5825 ext 8574 (whoever that is). I personally can't make this one, but have fun whoever goes!!!

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

great!! Thanks Anita......you know I dont gamble

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Grand Casino Mille Lacs

There is no Pool tournament at Grand Casino Mille Lacs this weekend. None in the future either.

Hey Doog!

I've got the pictures to prove it, so don't even try to lie. You know I'M right!
