New user, old collector from Houston (1 Viewer)

[IllegalEagle]

Howdy folks! New PCF user from Houston here.

I specialize in collecting/researching old unlicensed "illegal" clubs, and always looking for something unusual. I've been collecting for 30 years and most in the hobby/club know me, so I won't go into much detail here.

I look forward to having another communication outlet for my researching and networking.

All the best!

- Ed H.

What’s up Ed! Thanks for the info on the RSD chips. If you want a sample set hit me up when you can make messages.

If you are as cool as you say there has to be some pics right?? You gotta have a couple chips lying around right?

Hi Ed

Welcome at PCF
A few years ago, I was able to buy a set from the Chateau Club (3939 club) at Fort Worth’s Jacksboro Highway.

Does this ring a bell ?

YES! I do remember those chips! I seem to recall thinking those came out of an operation in the basement of a house. But that article (link) seems to think it was fancy upscale place, equipped with escape tunnels. I wonder if they are confusing the Chateau with the Top O Hill?

IDK, it's hard to find info...besides confirmation that it was an actual club and was on the address of 3939 club.
