History

Sarann Knight-Preddy and her husband Joe bought the business which was called Woody's Supper Club and changed the name to Sarann's Supper Club. She wanted to build an up-scale dining club, but realized that the kitchen was too small and the expense of supplies would make the food too costly, so Preddy decided to convert it into a casino. She renamed it again to the People's Choice Casino, got a gaming license and put in some poker and Blackjack tables.[2]

The casino had a license for blackjack, poker and slot machines and Preddy owned it around seven years.[3] It is unknown when the business closed, however, it was still listed as a business operation in the 1989 phone book[1] and when Clarence Ray was interviewed for the University of Nevada's Oral History Program, he stated it was still open in 1991.[4]

gollark: My main issue with it is that it forces people to study unnecessary things they do not actually like much in inefficient ways, goes around grouping people by age when this is wrong and bad, and encourages conformity and whatnot.
gollark: ALthough that is *a* problem.
gollark: That's not the problem. I apiothink there are others.
gollark: Just get all social interaction via internetâ„¢? This cannot fail.
gollark: I could play educational* stuff.
