Speaking of casinos... DBarron I usually stay at Harrah's in Metropolis, IL, which is just over the bridge from Paducah, about 15 minutes away. The hotels in Paducah fill up about a year before each show, but Harrah's always seems to to have rooms available, as it's so huge. Everyone price gouges for this show. Hotel room prices quadruple. But Harrah's is still a lot cheaper than those in Paducah... about $130 per night, versus $330 in Paducah.
