When it opened, the MGM Grand had an extensive Wizard of Oz theme, including the green "Emerald City" color of the building and the decorative use of Wizard of Oz memorabilia. After entering the casino's main entrance, one would find themselves in the Oz Casino facing Emerald City. Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion were seen in front of the city. The Emerald City attraction featured an elaborate yellow brick road walk-through, complete with the cornfield, apple orchard, and haunted forest, as well as audio-animatronic figures of Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion, and the Wicked Witch of the West. It would end at the door of the city, leading inside for a performance of "The Wizard's Secrets". When MGM Grand began its extensive refurbishment in 1996, the Oz Casino was the first to go.

("Plastic Print a Card" spelled out on reverse & Phone #1-800-929-1111)
Blue cards were only issued to high rollers. Though the reverse indicates the card was used on slots and tables, the only known examples are from table play. Several high rolling machine players at the time did not receive these blue cards, but rather the green ones. We know that management felt that the blue color was inconsistent with MGM's color scheme and replaced them with the green cards very quickly, perhaps explaining why other players never got them.)   CG224089
