Slots A Fun

Slots A Fun brings back a lot of great memories for me. Unfortunately, this place has been ignored and is no longer the fun place it once was. Perhaps someone will step in and save the place, but I fear it’s days are numbered. We visited last weekend and there were 10 or 15 people wandering around. I felt sorry for the poor DJ they hired for some reason to play to an empty casino. DJ, Bowling, Beer Pong, Pool Tables, it all seems so random. I have an idea, bring back live Blackjack dealers, a roulette wheel, maybe a craps table and put it right out front where it used to be. Bring back slot machines to fill in the emptiness of the place. Am I asking too much?

Today as I walked in we were greatly disappointed that there is no more blackjack tables. It’s the end of an era.

Seriously, how can anyone talk crap about this place?! like hellooo, let’s be honest it’s good for one reason, well maybe two. 1) cheap drinks & 2) beer pong tables. Like what else do you people expect from a place towards the end of the strip at Circus Circus? Go somewhere or appreciate the cheap drinks :)

I wanted to like this place so freaking bad. But Slots A Fun was just full of Slots A Germs and Slots A Mullets. SERIOUSLY. Why does everyone at Circus Circus have a mullet? I’m beyond disappointed. This place has various casino games, and the people playing them are a pretty accurate predictor of what a Zombie Apocalypse would look like, you can tell these people haven’t seen the light of day in a while. I thought the idea of the beer pong tables were cool, but I was so skeeved out by this place that I can’t imagine playing beer pong here. If that ball rolled on the floor and then I had to put it in my cup, I would definitely catch an illness. There is a Nathan’s and a Noble Roman’s food stand in the back. Who knew that a hot dog could take 35 minutes to prepare. There is also a discount ticket booth in the back. This whole place needs a hazmat team to do a thorough scrubbing immediately.

Love the name, but the actual place… well, not as much.
I don’t know a whole lot about Vegas as I have only visited twice so far in my life. I do know this place dates back to the 70’s and was kind of a big deal. They used to have cheap table games, $ 1 hotdogs, and was always busy. Now, there are no gaming tables, they still have hotdogs but they are no longer $ 1, and busy… if what I saw on the visit I made was any indication of the norm, then I would say not at all.
Yes, they offer cheap beer and snacks comparatively as well as some cheap souvenirs in their shop, but this place looks dark, dingy, and very tired. I think I read «seedy» in another review and that fits as well. I will say the drink service here was good, but I can’t say the same for the actual drink. The majority of the slots looked very old, but they were cheap so I guess you get what you pay for. Remember, if you have a players card from neighboring Circus Circus it will work in the machines here as well since CC owns this place.
Slots A Fun does indeed have slots, but whether or not they are A fun is really relative. If I find my way to Circus Circus again I would stop by here for a few minutes, but I wouldn’t go out of my way.

Slots a fun is a gambling hall dating back to what smaller LV gaming was like before in the 70s and 80s. Giving you a different feel, people came for the $ 1 hot dogs and you have a definitely younger feel at the casino here than the major ones on the strip. I remember coming here 15 years ago when I couldn’t afford the $ 15 -$ 25 minimums of the main casinos for table games and you could enjoy blackjack or the other games for $ 2 a hand or $ 5 a hand. It would get rowdy here with the younger crowd and drink specials as the night went on! Now it’s looking a little more tired as it ages and you wonder how much longer they can keep a go at it before the wrecking ball or dynamite blows the place up. The N end of the strip will be revitalized I. The next 10 – 20 years as the boom comes back and then the property here will be worth a lot. Till the it’s an aging casino that has seen many a wild night and we shall see how long it lasts!

I considered myself a vegas native at one time… we have not set foot in a casino since 08. Mom and I used to have a blast at slots.
Always would rub the winners pictures for luck — that’s ALL gone!!!
First off Circus Circus is a total indoor swap meet with all these random stores with rude ass employees that are as ghetto as the crap they sell — vape stores selling beginners kits for $ 60!!! Bathrooms stank! And I watched 3 nasty asses walk out without even looking at the sink! It was crowded with families which is a given but a fair number of trannies too which you would expect in Hollywood NOT a kid themed joint.
Now back to slots, I remember walking towards the doors and getting handed a coupon book with various coupons for little things like coffee and key chains — well not anymore. As you walk in you are thrown into shock over how empty and sad the place is. No waitresses no card games and more than half the machines are missing. It’s disconcerting too see miles of gaudy empty carpet. I felt sad. When we walked to the front to check out the strip it was dark and quiet like being in a black hole especially with the huge dark empty spot next door.
It’s glory days were gone a long time ago but it was fun still.
Someone need to tell slots that’s it’s dead and bury it already. Boo

I remember this place from like 10 years ago. It was so much fun to be walking north on the strip just past the Stardust (*sigh*) and be able to walk a few feet from the sidewalk of the strip and start playing some blackjack at a table! Those were the days!
Slots A Fun is basically a part of the Circus Circus property. It is a seperate building off of that main casino and just off Las Vegas Blvd. From what I’ve been able to ascertain, it opened sometime around 1971.
It is a small, unassuming space. You will find a fair amount of slots, some old school arcade games, and a deli that offers some great deal on snacks! The table games were taken out sometime around 2010 – 2011 ish. That is a shame, too. That was one of the best features of this place was to have table games within a few feet of the sidewalk.
I’ve only been in a few times in the last few years, but every time I go it’s a ghost town. There is just no energy to an empty building.
I honestly think if they just spruced up the space a little bit and brought back the table games, than they would see a lot more foot traffic here. I hope this actually is something they consider one day.
Until than, it is just a lonely and depressing space… which is a damn shame…
2 stars.

Awesome place. Especially Geraldo. great guy! Loved spending time here.

Slots A Fun used to be a really cool place. Small, personal. You could play table games or slot machines, video poker, etc. When we visited last year, they had taken out the table games, and put in pool tables. We were just there this month again, and there are big areas where they don’t have anything. Not even machines. I hope that doesn’t mean they are going to close. I don’t see how it’s still going. They used to have a free spin there, that was a really fun thing. They did have the Ghostbusters game, which my husband and I love, but we quickly lost our money, so we left and went back to Circus Circus.

This is the smokiest casino I’ve ever seen. It’s poorly ventilated. The air didn’t seem to be working either. I visited around 7 pm and it was still unbearable. I played on machine while there and there was a sign on the machine saying you get no players points for playing on that craps machine.

Slots-​A-​Fun used to be a fun place. They benefitted from all the foot traffic that used to be more prevalent on the North Strip. With the fall of most of their neighbors Slots-​A-​Fun now primarily serves as a slot parlor for guests at Circus Circus. No more table games… and thats a shame because it was a fun place to play craps.
I still pop in almost every visit just as a tribute to the old days but its a tomb every time I go. Seems like there’s less than 10 people in there every time I visit now. I Cant imagine how they stay in business. They still have some good cheap eats/​drinks at the snack bar… and the gift shop is nice for cheap souveniers… but without any people there is simply no energy in this place. Maybe with the revival of Sahara and a new casino planned next door Slots-​A-​Fun will get back to its former glory. But for now, its just kinda sad.

Visited again Feb 2014. They’ve actually put some effort in here. Looked cleaner, drink service was good, hot dogs were good (and cheap), some nice machines. They have pool tables (which I find odd in a casino… not a big money maker). An ok mix of gambling machines (smallest casino I’ve seen, some gas stations have more variety), I saw zero live tables, but to be fair to them, they seem to be making an effort compared to the disaster I saw a couple of years ago. Not at all crowded mid day Wednesday.
Nice little store with good prices. Decent dining options, I like the roomy feel with the machines not jammed together. Amazingly I went from hating this place to considering it as an occasional diversion. 2 ½ stars rounded up to 3.

This place has definitely seen better days. I used to come by here in my single days all the time during my visits to Vegas. I loved buying the foot long hot dogs for $ 1.00! I was so disappointed to see they did not have them anymore.
Really, though, Slots A Fun is so outdated now. Hard to believe that they are still operating. Everything from the machines to the interior décor appears dirty and old.
This place needs a major remodel. Sorry Slots A Fun, but you are no longer fun anymore.

Love this place for what it is. Seedy yes, Cheap. Yes but its the low end of vegas. seen a young kid win 5k here.

Slots Of Fun managed by Circus Circus just needs to rollover and die. This is not the Slots Of Fun of yesteryear. They took out all the live table games and dealers. There was not many slots like there used to be and they added pool tables. Who the hell goes to Vegas to play pool? I did not see a bartender nor a waitress but that’s probably because I was in and out literally in under 60 seconds. I might check it out next time only because it seemed quiet and I hear they have $ 1 video blackjack based on prior reviews.

Unfortunately, I’ve never been at Slots A Fun in its previous incarnation. Other reviews will tell you, it was and appeared to be the anti-​establishment casino. The defiant dive in the face of the ever growing mega casinos being built around it. This year, I was going to Vegas for the first time. I’ve heard Slots A Fun had changed, I’ve heard its absurd footlong meat-​like product had been replaced with simply an elongated Nathan’s. I was still going to check it out, and I held out hope that the massive baloney tube was still there.
I couldn’t imagine, after expecting the things it didn’t have, that it was worse than I could hope for. It is simply just a smoking room with slot machines. That’s it. With no doors or areas to shield you from the crippling dry heat in early August, it wasn’t even a safe haven from the outside world on the strip.
As Krusty the Clown had suggested about his fast food restaurant on an unmanned oil rig, «Ah, close the damn thing down.»

In the old days, I came here after my money ran low to kill time before the night clubs opened. It was truly a sight to be seen. There were plenty of tables, numerous bottled beers, and slots abound. It was a good place to cut your teeth the tables without spending too much money. The dealers would chat you up and teach you about the game. The dollar hot dogs were big enough to share with a friend or two. The customer service was excellent while the drinks were stiff.
ALL OF THAT IS GONE!
This casino advertises dollar black jack, craps, and roulette. However, in actuality there are no live tables at all. It is all video. The place is run down and smells like crap. The dollar hot dogs have been replaced. There is an over priced Subway inside. There really is no customer service to be had because it seems like no one works there anymore. There is security and maybe one server.
The place was full of people that I would cross the street to avoid.

This place looks shut down and like a dump, but if you like strong cheap drinks and playing stupid games– go to here!
I think I won money…
I think I had fun…
I think I ate something bad for me…
I know I made it back to my hotel with money still in my pocket… at least this night I did.

Ok, let’s make it clear. It isn’t $ 1 for beer and footlongs anymore (as of 1÷04÷10). it’s:
— $ 2 beers
— $ 2 footlongs
not that it makes a big difference! The prices changed most likely, as others pointed out, because slots-​a-​fun is now part of Circus Circus next door. You can actually use Circus Circus’ free play money at Slots-​a-​fun.
The hotdogs were pretty gross, but hey they were practically free. Better than the other options in the casino: overpriced subway and pizza.
The beer was good, the wait was short and the place had excellent atmosphere. Great place to drink on the cheap as waitress came as soon as we sat by the penny machines.
I wasn’t disappointed. Great place to hang out on the cheap for a couple hours.
