My girlfriend says she played a slot machine a few years ago where at some point you can rub a buddha belly. What is the name of this machine?
I’ve seen and played an array of buddha themed slots, but haven’t seen one where rubbing the buddha was part of the game or bonus. Sorry, no help, hope someone else has seen it. Was this in Vegas?
There's another Buddha right by Subway in Gold Coast. I don't play slots, but maybe it's worth a rub before going to the tables.
For a minute I thought this was referring to the shrine outside Caesars, before I remembered that it's Brahma. There is, however, a large Buddha sculpture in the north valet area at Aria, in that big space past the Patisserie that they use for the Jewel queue. As far as the game, I definitely have seen a ton of Buddha-related slot machines, but I don't really know the mechanics of them or whether there's belly-rubbing involved. I used to have a little Hotei (the Laughing Buddha and probably the one most people think of) figurine that I'd put on the blackjack table when I sat down, on in the rail at the craps table when I bought in. Always brought me pretty decent luck!
I've rubbed the Buddha just inside the north valet at Aria; no luck after that, but I've had great meals at Bardot and Jean George's.
I rubbed Budda's belly at the Cal just recently and then proceeded to draw a RF at BHB 30 minutes later! Probably not what she was talking about though.
