Boomtown Casino And Hotel Reno Dances With Lions

The free dance will bring alive a Chinese tradition believed to offer good luck and fortune to all present. The festive sounds of drums, gongs and bamboo sticks will scare away evil as the ceremony begins in Boomtown'sÒ hotel lobby, at the casino's north entrance.

Performers will don vibrantly-colored lion suits. Boomtown General Manager Jack Fisher then 'awakens' the lions' eyes, ears, nose and mouth with a ceremonial mixture. As the lions wake, they rise to catch a hanging head of lettuce representing great monetary fortune in the coming year.
