Aliante Station Opening


Yesterday, Station Casinos opened their eleventh property. Scheduled opening 11/11 at 11:11pm, cute, huh? We arrived at 10pm we wanted to catch the firework display. Traffic was backed up on the 215 and it was slow going getting into the property. We caught most of the display from the street in the car. The rest we saw from the parking garage. It was a great show. We were allowed in before 11pm. We toured the banquet rooms, the hotel lobby, and the casino. Staff was friendly. The casino was nice and the parking garage had a great design. I doubt we will be back, it's a haul, but those that live in the area will love it. We played video poker and tried our luck on penny slots, hoping for good fortune like when South Coast opened. But no royals or jackpots for us, we took the regular Station's beating.
