Fun fact: At the time we’re writing this story, the Fremont is 35 million minutes old. Before the renovation, it felt like it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nThe Fremont casino opened on May 18, 1956, and we’re pretty sure this is the first upgrade to the carpeting.<\/p>\n
We kid! Casinos get a lot of foot traffic. That actually explains why casino carpets are so busy, they camouflage stains and wear.<\/p>\n
Fremont’s new carpeting is about the most camouflagy we’ve ever seen, and we’ve seen a lot of casino carpeting.<\/p>\n
The Fremont, owned by Boyd Gaming, did its casino renovation is a smart way. Portions of the floor were closed off, and work was done in a phased approach, to keep guest (revenue) disruption to a minimum.<\/p>\n
