Las Vegas Casinos and Catholics
This may come as a surprise to those of you not living in Las
Vegas, but there are more Catholic churches there than casinos.
Not surprisingly, some worshippers at Sunday services will give
casino chips rather than cash when the basket is passed.
Since they get chips from so many different casinos, the
churches have devised a method to collect the offerings. The
churches send all their collected chips to a nearby Franciscan
Monastery for sorting and then the chips are taken to the
casinos of origin and cashed in.
This is done by the chip monks.
Didn't see it comin' did ya?!?!
