People's Choice Casino Explained

People's Choice Casino
Address:805 West Owens
Country:United States

The People's Choice Casino was a club located at 805 West Owens on the West Side of Las Vegas, Nevada.[1]

History

Sarann Knight-Preddy and her husband Joe bought the business which was called Woody's Supper Club and changed the name to Sarann's Supper Club. She wanted to build an up-scale dining club, but realized that the kitchen was too small and the expense of supplies would make the food too costly, so Preddy decided to convert it into a casino. She renamed it again to the People's Choice Casino, got a gaming license and put in some poker and blackjack tables.

The casino had a license for blackjack, poker, and slot machines and Preddy owned it around seven years. It is unknown when the business closed. It was still listed as a business operation in the 1989 phone book and when Clarence Ray was interviewed for the University of Nevada's Oral History Program, he stated it was still open in 1991.
