Bet you didn’t know this..? Do Las Vegas churches accept gambling
chips? This may come as a surprise to those of you not
living in Las Vegas, but there are more Catholic churches
than casinos. Not surprisingly, some worshipers at Sunday services
will give casino chips rather than cash when the basket is
passed. Since they get chips from many different casinos,
the churches have devised a method to collect the
offerings. The churches send all their collected chips to a
nearby Franciscan monastery for sorting and then the chips
are taken to the casinos of origin and cashed
in. This is done by the chip monks.
You didn't even see it coming did you?
