Silly! Downtown Reno is filled with casinos, but not like the Vegas kind. They're classic and a little grimy, but fun all the same. If you're here then you need to do a walk around downtown. See the river, some former Burning Man statues, local murals, $2.00 Buds at the CalNeva and the bright lights of "the biggest little city"
