Social Studies Assignment for Wednesday

Lot of new posts here today - and more to come, I believe.

Here is a Social Studies assignment for today:

Background: I pulled into the parking lot at work today to see the person in front of me getting out of his car and putting up a windshield visor. (You know - a windshield visor, something you put inside your car to prevent the sun from coming in through the front windshield. Is that what they are called?)

The visor had logos of different casinos from Vegas on it! However, on a closer look, it was only logos from the "Coast Casinos" group. Apparently, there are four casinos in this casino corporation. All four logos were present on the visor; the logos were from:

- Gold Coast Casino
- Suncoast Casino
- Barbary Coast Casino
- and, of course, The Orleans.

Assignment: Please provide a physical description of the owner of the car and the visor. As a bonus, please provide the make and model of the car the person was driving.

Late 40's early 50's. Made a trip last summer with the family to the Grand Canyon and stopped by to see the strip. If the entire family wagered $100 total, they were livin' on the edge. Got the visor as part of weeknight promo special. Engineer/Scientist.

Car - 2001 Toyota Camry (and I'm not making a dig at you)

Now, I don't know this person, so I don't have many of the details that you are providing. Sorry to disappoint - I will not be able to provide information on what games he played, how long he was there, etc.
