Saturday night in Black Hawk. 7:00PM. It wasn't that long ago you would find 50 people in line at the Riviera Buffet. It would be worth the wait.

Those days are over.

Last Saturday night - NO LINE. Maybe 20 people eating at tables. Probably 10% filled.

The food was stale and dry. The crab legs soggy. The beef and pork roasts over-done and tastless.

Oh, and the Player's Club discounts have been discontinued. So unless you've been playing all day, you get to pay full price.

Don't. Get a hotdog at the bar.
