Put many a score on the board in my days in Vegas on these boards.

By the way, love these much more than the modern LCD boards that are sometimes very difficult to read.

When the CASTAWAYS closed in 1987, took a few magnetic team plaques of my favorite teams and they are currently on my fridge as we speak now.

Green Bay
Iowa
Boston Red Sox

The casino themselves made them in the maintance room..........they may have ordered them from somebody, but do not know from who.

Any lumberyard or art store will be able to make you some I would presume.

I saw them hand writing scores on a board somewhere recently. I think it may have been Luxor. Maybe it was the Flamingo.

The app I have for scores and lines was written by someone else.

Luxor, Excalibur and several downtown books still use the magic marker boards.
