#AtlanticCity #NuYawk #Showboat
My grandparents favorite casino for YEARS was always the Showboat. Once the Showboat casino closed, my grandparents followed much of their favorite staff members over to Harrah’s on the marina side, which is their usual place now. I’m sad I never got to see Showboat in its prime, as back then I wasn’t old enough to enjoy AC 😅
I remember it. Was my favorite. House of Blues was awesome. And the best buffet ever!
It was the first casino I ever visited, as a 21-year-old in April 2014. It's the one that got me into casinos and AC, so hence why I love the Nu Yawk channel. The casino closed later that same year!
Love your channel. Here's an idea for a video. Pools of Atlantic City. It would be interesting to compare the pools at the all the casinos. I know you've pointed out the pools in some of your previous videos, but you need an all encompassing video of them all. Pros Cons. Fees if any. Kid policy. Adults only. etc. Keep up the good work!
Great idea MrK! I'll put it on my list! Thanks for watching and subscribing!
agreed you and jennifer sparks are the only ones consistently keepingus degens informed would love to see a kid friendly pool thumbnail great jeff
Heyyy u showed everything in Showboat except the Pinball room to the side of the arcade..Great vid!!
I showed it a week before on the channel. Love that pinball parlor! Thanks for watching and subscribing Trnsedah!
Are you going to AC on 4th of July? There's a crab and lobster festival happening on that day in Steel Pier.
I'm thinking about it. Im off from my 'real' job. It would just be for the day. No ones going to comp me a room on the 4th. Sounds good! We'll see! Thanks redips!
3:20 Hey Jeff not sure if you noticed but a lot of the old slot machine signs are still there lit up on the posts/columns in the middle of the racetrack! The one on the left even still says “QuickHit” like the slot machines did.
Yes. Lots of reminders when you walk around these days of the casino days.
Im just talking out my rear here. But id suspect they would keep the aracde and spaces they did change in tact, and probably reopen the poker room, and hopefully a small room for table games and another room for slots. I would love a second boardwalk poker room. Especially since i love staying at Ocean.
Good ideas, but I'm thinking they would want the casino right off the boardwalk (where the arcade currently is), and most likely relocate the arcade to one of the many vacant spots (like the old buffet). Who knows. If they do get a casino, we'll all find out eventually! Thanks LouieB for watching and subscribing!
I would be so sad walking through the Showboat and seeing the old casino looking the way it does...
Thanks for watching and subscribing Tomb!
Everybody Loves The Showboat.
Sounds like a slogan!
Jeff - Nice to hear things are looking up for the Showboat I stayed there a few times back when they had a casino! I've spoken with people in construction who told me that the Taj Mahal owners only paid pennies on the dollar for the work done building that resort.
Yup. Seems like a common thing in construction. I think I'd want to be paid up front! LOL!
Used to love the poker room right on the boardwalk
Thanks for watching and subscribing Kentmac!
I could be wrong, but I had also heard about them potentially building on that site in front of the water park, where they had the circus and the seafood thing closer to the boardwalk as a possibility for the casino. As always thanks for touring and sharing Jeff!
Interesting! Thanks Richard!
Good video jeff. I also liked showboat as a casino went there during better times.
It was one of my favs! Thanks Steven!
Truthfully, they need to do something to that place. Its antiquated, dark and kind of creepy. With the arcade and Waterpark they really need to make it more inviting. Having the drug addicts at the door doesn't help either
Thanks for watching Lisa!
I miss the Showboat casino. Alot of good times there.
Used to be my fav!
A casino with things for the kids to do and that waterpark?? Goldmine!!! If they can get the casino license from the jersey gaming commission (in their infinite wisdom 🤣) would love to see it AC needs to make a push to get the Vegas travelers. Ac is a more reasonable place to gamble and stay at this point.
Thanks for stopping by PittsburghPicker!
Is there any way to find out more about this? Like when will it happen? Next year maybe?
I guess they'll have a room with some slots, and electronic table games, while the kiddies are on the waterside, or playing video games. I can see that happening.
Add some restaurants, shops and entertainment and its a no brainer success! Everything under one roof! Thanks John!
interesting
Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Unless they are going to be part of a nationwide casino loyalty program, Showboat should just focus on its arcade and waterpark, which are points of differentiation.
But think of all the $$$ it could bring to the Showboat! Thanks for watching JWD!
I can’t see a new casino of any size opening here. The AC gambling market can’t expand because there’s too much out of state competition today. If anything, the number of gamblers traveling to AC will only continue to diminish. I’m still glad to see the Showboat coming into its own as a non-casino destination.
Thanks for watching and subscribing John!
I was pissed when ceasors let this casino go, I had a lot of great times at the showboat, especially staying in the suites I cant remember the name for the bands that used to play there, oh the house of blues suites
Thanks for watching and subscribing James!
The arcade overall is great. When you win on a ticket game, you actually win a good amount of tickets and not just a few. My son ended up cashing in for a giant dog stuffy that all eyes were on him when walking back to the room. I'd say we spent about $150-200 in game cards that lasted for 2 days. I had more fun at the water park than my 9 year old last Summer. Plus, the Hard Rock Craps dice were in my favor one night, so trip money won back covering all expenses.
Sounds like a great time! Thanks for watching Anthony!
Last time I was in AC, I walked into Showboat and noticed that the escalators in the back by the lobby are roped off. Somethng must be coming upstairs then right?? My prediction is the arcade moves upstairs to where the old buffet was, casino goes back into its original space. Hope to run into you in AC sometime Jeff!
Thats actually my thought as well (if it happens). The old buffet (a really good one) was up those escalators. Thanks KoasterKid!
Island at Showboat was a backup plan when I was rained out for a beach day in Island Beach State Park. It was fine. It was my first time at an indoor waterpark. I've been to Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach so my standards weren't best calibrated for something like Island. I had seen Dream Works Water Park at American Dream, but never gone, so I can't make proper comparisons.
Showboat needs a lot of Nip/Tuck.
Thanks for watching and subscribing! I have a Blizzard Beach video from my trip to Disney World but never edited it. Perhaps I should do that!
@@NuYawkPossibly!
There's a bit of a stagnancy in water parks IMHO. They have rarely changed ever since they opened.
I remember showboat cut through resort's o showboat cut through showboat to take this was the late. 80's early 90's
There are connections from Resorts to Hard Rock to Showboat however the Hard Rock to Showboat connector is currently closed. Thanks for watching and subscribing JustMe!
Hey Jeff, you could propose a video and script to the various hotels/restaurants and play up what is in it for them. You might need to discuss with the social media person. They are bean counters so they will weigh off what is in it for them. It may not be that profitable for you but it may be a start.😊
Thanks for the tip!
@@NuYawkno problem, I follow other channels and for example Norma geli does 24 hour challenges at hotels in Vegas to highlight the rooms, restaurants, bars. She gets the food and rooms comped from what I can tell. Another called Danny the Medic has a smaller following barters stuff from Restaurants. It might be an idea for you to sell to the Atlantic city casinos although they may wait until the off season to take you up on this. Atlantic city casinos have some pressure on them as NYC casinos are coming in a couple years.
@user-zw4cc8ww4y Yes. This time of the year rooms are going for $500+ a night on weekends. Comps are hard to get. But there is still so much more I can cover. Thanks!
They need to open the inside connector door to Hard Rock.
Thanks for stopping by!
Is the connection closed??
@@richardhales92 Its been closed since the place was sold.
Yes they do.
@@NuYawkActually that's not entirely true, the connector has been closed since COVID, but hasn't reopened despite the lessened danger these days.
I hope to see you at the Atlantic city air show Practice this year
I usually go the day of but you never know! Thanks Moodydiva!
If I should see you on practice day I can treat you to White house subs in Hard Rock
@Moodydiva Your so kind! I dont think the Thunderbirds are part of the shows finalie this year. Bummer.
Showboat has an empty wing , I the entrance is off the street next to the car park , and an empty lot two blocks away .
I can see the casino coming back.
They have tons of room! Thanks KH!
It sounds like they would like to make more money, so looking into bringing back a casino. Hum
Thanks for stopping by NoJoyHere!
Stayed there before the arcade and after the casino closed…it was an empty sad mess!! No restaurants..nothing 😢😢
You mean like this? ruclips.net/video/nQSw_KegsVY/видео.html Thanks TheJewel63!
@@NuYawk Yes!! Exactly like the video!! It was awful!!
You did a lot of history on the Showboat deed. Certainly the owner of the Showboat has brought a lot of diversity in the last 10 years and deserves, in my opinion, a few gambling dollars $$.
I'm sure its all part of his grand design! Thanks Richard!
Bart Blatstein owns showboat. He also had control of the pier at Caesars (he gave it back to Caesars because he couldn't do squat with it). The CRDA gave Garden pier to Blatstein (It was a beach bar for a couple of months and now sits empty). The CRDA built Blatstein a water park. Blatstein is from Philly' The city (Philly) has to constantly chase Blatstein to pay his taxes. Showboat a casino? Don't think so under Blatsteins ownership.
Thanks for watching and subscribing William!
Good detective work on the horing at Shwboat. I think Atlantic City can handle one more casino as the numbers for profits for Q1 of 2024 was good. Only 2 casinos lost money Ballys and Resorts and they were small losses.
Not sure about your first sentence (typo?) Showboat is in a good position (literally, being between Hard Rock and Ocean), for success.
@@NuYawkI meant to say hiring but my fingers are too big and hit the "o" instead. Time flies, I remember gambling at Showboat.
@user-zw4cc8ww4y gotcha! Thanks again!
We (my lady and I) have an escape room business with a zombie apocalypse theme. So we enjoy playing House of the Dead game!
Funny you should mention Zombies. War of the Dead was filmed at Showboat! It's a great zombie movie that takes place in Las Vegas, but the casino scenes were actually filmed right here at the Showboat! Thanks for watching and subscribing Jeff!
@@NuYawk YES! I actually remember hearing something about that. Saw that movie and LOVED IT!
Are you leaning one way more than the other? Slots vs table games (as a whole) vs just poker. Or a mix of everything?
No idea. But judging the way things are at Showboat, I'd say slots, video poker and video table games. No dealers. Just my opinion. Thanks Dan!
I hate, I know the pier has them, "rows of claw machines." It seems they're desperate for money, whenever I see them, or at least that's what's going through my head.
I seen pictures of the rooms at showboat who ever owns it now did not redo the rooms they were left as cearers left them
Yes. The hotel rooms need work. Someday I'll stay overnight (maybe in the Winter).
When NYC finally gives out the casino licenses it will be another nail in the coffin of AC. I do not see AC opening more casinos but I can see them closing a few after NYC opens 3 full casinos within next 2 years.
Thanks for watching Manhan1755!
@JH-tg3qg Ha!
Where would they put the slot machine and poker table if they decide to turn it to a casino. Because they not going to get ride of the games and water park. Because I was hearing rumors about it.
They are currently utilizing very little of their available space. They have more than enough to work with. Thanks Mario!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for watching and subscribing Tray!
Mgm needs a casino there
Totally agree!
It's a downer there's a lawsuit against the waterpark. I wish that wasn't true.
Allegedly. LOL!
One question does showboat have hotel rooms
Of course it does! I haven't stayed there since the 'original' Showboat closed, but I'll stay when the season is over and take you guys along! By the way, you can ask more than one question, no limits! LOL!
Security is always following you around Showboat because they think that you are like Herbert from Family Guy.
Why does security follow Herbert?
@@NuYawk Herbert? Heebert?
@@richardhales92 No idea. I rarely watch TV much less cartoons. LOL!
Hahaha!
Looks like a sad attempt to keep something going on there. A true money pit for both guests and owners.
Thanks for watching and subscribing John!
👍👍👍👍
Thanks Jason!
Do not eat at ACE - horrible! The place is a wreck. Thank goodness hard rock is a stone throw away. I would stay again if I had kids but def plan to eat elsewhere.
Thanks Misty!
I think, here comes a sore section, that casinos watch RUclips and know how to cater their freeplay and comps. I think they would like Vloggers to 'play it up,' without saying anything. I don't think most people get the comps you "RUclips Vloggers get" if they gamble $100 a visit and stay at their property and eat at their property. Sometimes it is the location from where you live in proximity to the casino and other casinos you could possibly visit. Most of us gamble much more money and are not able to spend, as you mentioned 2 years ago, 'half of the 365 days in casino hotels.'
We've been down this road before Richard. If they do, you are correct, they don't say anything. That being said, with the exception of rooms and an occasional meal comp, I pay for everything else you watch me do on this channel and have the receipts to prove it. Its not cheap, but the RUclips ads help pay for it, not so much the places I visit. Im going to need some new equipment soon. If I mention the camera company in my videos do you think I'd get a deal? I don't think so, its coming out of my pocket. I dont think I ever said I spent half of my year on the road (although sometimes it feels like it). Family and friends would never see me and Tom & Jerry (the cats) would starve. LOL! Thanks!
@@NuYawk It's not personal. Many gamble more than some RUclips Vloggers say they're gambling and they keep saying 'keep your rewards card in,' and some of us aren't getting what RUclips Vloggers get in comps even if we keep our rewards card in. Sometimes, it's the location. Atlantic City is vying for New Jersey residents, with casinos (how many 7?) in Atlantic City, 2 in Philly, 1 in Baltimore (better check my numbers), 1 in D.C., 3 in New York, all around once-nearby Atlantic City, LOL. As a CEO, I'd spend 10 minutes a day seeing what they say about my property on social media; wouldn't a smart CEO? You're a positive person; I'd want you to visit my property. Many aren't getting the offers across America that you're getting, betting around $100 a trip.
@@NuYawk I don't know what's happening. I type a response and it doesn't show up. Same problem on some other RUclips channels. I'm going to keep saying that as a CEO, I'd spend 10 minutes a day looking at what social media is saying about my property. You're a positive person; I'd want you at my property. You say you gamble about $100 a visit; many of us aren't getting the same comps you say you're getting. I'm going to keep saying that because I lost a lot more money last week. And the week before that. Gambling. With my card in. And I don't get the offers RUclips Vloggers get. I know you spend a lot of out of pocket cash. I prefer the Howard Johnson's near Tennessee Av. than pay resort fees and taxes. I just think consumers who watch your channel or many other RUclips channels should expect if you keep your card in and gamble $100 (or $500 for that matter) should think they're likely to get a free night, even with fees and taxes. It's not like that in much of the country. I don't think it's like that in Atlantic City. You're not doing anything wrong. I would favor your channel, and Brian Christopher's, and the Daily Woo's and would love you to profile my property and say, 'keep your card in.'
@richardhales92 I know its not personal, Ive gotten to know you to well! I just dont want people to think everything is handed to me when it is not. I spent quite a bit down in Florida and already on an up coming New Orleans trip. I work hard, spend $, put in lot of time and effort and get rewarded with ad revenue from RUclips. Most vloggers will tell you the same. Its about the views, not the freebies (although a free room makes life easier)! LOL!
@@NuYawk You certainly do work hard; it's not the way I'd want to spend my vacation, documenting the trip or editing (I don't know what that is, but I don't think I'd like it). I know even if you get the room for free there's fees and taxes that can go over $40/night. There's gas to get there or air fare. No doubt. I don't think things are handed to you; restaurants are expensive and I think that you are seldom comped for your meals. BUT, gamblers who gamble, say, $200 on a trip and keep their rewards in may not get to say as many times as hear RUclips vloggers say, "I got my room comped." "Comped" means you're going to pay at least $40/night in Atlantic City. I don't think it's the norm that a gambler gambles, $200 and keep your card in and get a 'comped' night. Period. I don't get the same results. I do think I'd pick out people, as a CEO, who I would want filming at my property and give them more comps since they're helping to draw an audience. I would, if it was legal, give them more comped nights especially if they are telling their audience "I got this by keeping my card in, paying for everything and gambling $100" I do not think people who do this will get the same result as RUclipsr's. Gambling, gambling, gambling. I have done this, stayed at a property using my rewards card and gambled well over $100 and still waiting to get a comped room. It's not happening. It could be your casino credit card that's doing it. It could be your location. It could be Atlantic City with a lot of competitive casinos. But I gamble more each week and do not get comps. Period. I mean $15 freeplay
