Pete Rose has fully embraced his embattled past, which is no more evident than when he makes the inaugural table bet at the reopening of Cincinnati’s casino.
Rose, 80, will make the first bet as part of the festivities to celebrate the Hard Rock Casino grand opening in place of the Jack Casino brand on October 29, the casino announced Thursday in a press release.
The festivities will also include a performance by Earth, Wind & Fire and a ceremonial guitar smash. Tickets are on sale for the performance at HardRockCasinoCincinnati.com.
