Bernie Takes Tahoe: The Adventures Of "Numbers" Bernie

Join bad boy Bernie in this blast-from-the-past comical adventure set in South Lake Tahoe's 1975 swinging casino scene. Bernie's an eccentric, flamboyant, Elvis protégé with a waning career, but regrettably even more recognized as "Numbers" Bernie, a washed up gambler and bourbon slamming womanizer obsessed with a failed numbers system. That is, until he has a meeting with destiny . . .

Once a top-notch entertainer, Bernie finally hits rock bottom one fateful evening and takes a pensive moonlit walk by the lake where he has a chance (or is it chance?) encounter with a beautiful, mysterious woman with her clever white German shepherd at her side. Bernie, the quintessential "man's-man," oddly finds himself spilling his guts to this attractive, toga-clad stranger as she falls in step with him. In turn, she gives him a "message of the day" to lift his dampened spirits.

After their encounter, a strong premonition deftly leads him to discover her message is even more uplifting at a roulette table. Bernie then desperately searches for this mystery woman to keep the gravy train rolling--along with adding her to his long list of female conquests. When Bernie finds her, the cash starts piling up fast, and a series of outrageous escapades with a cast of unforgettable characters ensue, forever changing the course of his life, and the casinos of Stateline, Nevada.
