Default Erie, PA?

I'm going to be in this fabulous town two weekends from now. However, I am totally baffled by that crazy Eastern geography.

What's the closest joint that's worth visiting?

Mountaineer Racing (owners of Binions) has a slot parlor pretty close to Erie. Anything else is pretty far,as far as I know.I'm thinking several hours each way by car.
You might be better off just enjoying the beaches on the Great Lakes.The Inland Sea is an experiance onto itself.

Are we talking, like, those places in upstate NY, or Atlantic City, otherwise?

It has to be at least six hours one way to AC. I'm going to guesstimate its at least an hour and a half to Buffalo,three hours to Turning Stone.You are in the middle of no where.

Yeah, Shad's right...Nowhere Land! You might as well come down to Pittsburgh and we can get sh*t faced on on good 'ol Iron City or Rolling Rock.

You got that backwards. You need to get ****-faced to drink the Iron City.
IC Light has got to be the worst tasting swill I've ever had the misfortune of inbibing.
Rolling Rock,and Yuenling,on the other hand.....

That would be Allegany in Salamanca New York. It's about an hour drive from Erie just head east on 86.

8D S17 games, with a medium number of tables?

I guess Niagra Falls wouldn't be too ridiculous of a drive. Plus, I here there's some sort of other attraction there.

Getting across the border can be a real hassle,especially on weekends.The American Falls are much nicer than the Canadian ones,but you must cross over to see them.
Be aware that not all car insurance is valid in Canada,and you may need a special waiver. Same thing goes for rental cars.
I still think you should just enjoy the beach.
