Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) -- Bill's Gamblin' Hall & Saloon closed on Monday to undergo a massive renovation. When it reopens in several months, it will have a new look and a new name.
Before it was Bill's, it was the Barbary Coast.
An icon on the Strip for several years, many Action News Facebook fans recall times spent at Bill's and the Barbary Coast.
Those fans shared their memories, both good and bad, on our Facebook page Monday:
Leslie: Best Chinese food!!!!
Patricia: It was always fun to go see Big Elvis over the years
Alex: I used to eat at the McDonald's in the basement back when it was Barbary Coast.
Annette: Barbary Coast had the most authentic Cantonese Chinese food years ago!!!

Alan: I won 500 bucks there when I was 21
Dennis: I always remember it as the Barbary Coast!! My favorite place for Blackjack and Pai Gow Poker!
