Whiskey Pete's Hotel & Casino is a hotel and casino located in Primm, Nevada, United States. The hotel has 777 rooms and suites, a large swimming pool, gift shop, and four restaurants. The hotel and casino are owned by Primm Valley Resorts. The casino covers approximately and includes a race and sports book. ==History== The area originally was owned by a gas station owner named Pete MacIntyre. Pete is believed to have had a difficult time making ends meet selling gas and had resorted to bootlegging. Primm history remembers him as "Whiskey Pete." When Whiskey Pete died in 1933, legend has it that he wanted to be buried standing up with a bottle of bootleg in his hands so he could watch over the area. Whiskey Pete's unmarked grave was accidentally exhumed while workers were building a connecting bridge from Whiskey Pete's to Buffalo Bill's (on the other side of I-15). The body was moved and is now said to be buried in one of the caves where Pete cooked up his moonshine. Whiskey Pete's was opened in 1977 by Ernest Jay Primm as the first of the casinos to be located at what was then called State Line. In 1983, a new hotel tower was constructed as part of an expansion of the property.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Las Vegas Hotels / Casinos: By Name )〕 In late 1998, Whiskey Pete's offered the roof of the parking garage as a Valley Hospital Flight For Life Base. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Whiskey Pete's」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
