Biloxi – poor man’s Vegas

BILOXI, Miss. – March 19, 2005 – Biloxi is sort of the poor man’s Vegas. You see a lot more RVs than you do limos, and they have Hank Williams and Minnie Pearl impersonators to go along with the usual quota of Elvis look-alikes.

But, it’s a low-key, unpretentious sort of place where you can play golf during the day and gamble to your heart’s content at night – at substantially lower prices than Vegas. This is Biloxi’s high season, and you won’t find green fees over $100. Costs that much in Vegas to have the ball boys wipe down your clubs.

When you’re leaving the Biloxi casinos, don’t be surprised to hear somebody say – you guessed it – “ya’ll come back now.”
