Eagle Pass is only four hours away from my home, and Louisiana is about six hours. If he dislikes this place why does he go? Well I have friends that live there and I'm to lazy to drive to Louisiana. Sandwiches and Hamburgers are big and juicy. Finally found the Sports Bar tucked in a corner, This place the hot dogs and pizza are very good. Hey when your hungry you will eat anything. We tried the Buffet every day and it was a low average of so so. Oh well better than the Dixie cups that they give you to pour your soft drinks. Looked like a stainless steel cup, but nope.

Got tired of making trips to and from the soda machine so my wife and I bought a travel cup from the gift shop $10. Point system is horrendous!!!! Drinks are free as far as soft drinks and coffee, but the serving cups that you get there are sooooo small. I often go to the Kickapoo Casino In Eagle Pass Texas atleast four times a year. There are plenty of non-smoking entertainment establishments that you'd enjoy more. As far as smoking, I didn't think the casino was all that smoky, but if you're a non-smoker who is intolerant of smoke, don't make the trip. But I will go back for a 2-day trip mid-week when I'm up for going! The lack of free drinks didn't bother me because I don't drink, and I liked that I could fill up my travel mug myself with soda instead of waiting for a waitress. I wouldn't go on a weekend, ever.,because I HATE crowds (I don't go to Vegas on the weekend either :). I went on a Sunday, and I thought it was too crowded for me. Comparing the slot 'payout' to Vegas, I'd say it's BETTER! I got more play for my money than any casino I've ever played in Vegas.

They don't have table games (blackjack or craps or roulette) but I had fun anyway. I actually had a lot of fun in the casino. As background, I'm a Vegas junkie and I've lived in San Antonio for over 17 years and never visited Lucky Eagle.so this was my first time. Next time I go I will stay at one of the 'budget' hotels in Eagle Pass as I found driving both ways in one day too much for me.

it's a 3 hour drive if you live in North San Antonio.
