we were originally going to leave about 9am for vegas on friday.....

but i'l convince my wife to leave at 7am & depending on traffic, we should be in vegas about 1pm...so i'm pretty sure that you can count us in for lunch at 1pm at this restaurant...

Something tells me that if you were not going to be in Vegas, in June, for the World Series, that you would not be hosting a get together. The fact that you are going to be in Vegas, in June, for the World Series, gives you a great opportunity to host a get together, since you are going to be there anyway, so why not, as its more convenient for you, but maybe not other posters that make this site what it is.

Something tells me that you didn't read the part where he said he's not even going to play any WSOP events on this trip.

No shit, that's a pretty dumb post. We have how many forum members here? I imagine it's in the 1000's. Maybe we should pick a day that will surely fit everyone's schedule.

It's great that we have so many people coming down and it's also great that Jack and Betjamaica are willing to host a nice event for those who can make the trip.

You have to wonder what the motivation was here.

no surprise with this reply :sadwave: that is true though, he isnt playing any WSOP events, but seriously, why not go in like october when it isnt walking into an oven there and there is football going on and playoff baseball? I can think of far better places in June to be than 110 degree weather in the desert, of course I'd love to go as Vegas is Vegas and nothing else compares, but I dont see why everyone is hamstrung to this time, but Kosar, the guys point was Jack originally planned these dates AROUND the WSOP dates he later changed his mind, you "accidentally" left that part out, the better move wouldve been polling people and asking when theyd want to go instead of being told when it is, but we expect nothing but the most honest information from you :shrug:

Look jackass, this isn't a planned MJ 'event.' We've had 6 super bowl parties with the dates known well in advance so people could make arrangements. 'Smart Money' somehow didn't make any of those, but he's all worried about this impromptu get together.

This was a thing where Jack was going to play a few events, he asked if I could come out and we decided to see if others might be out there or had interest in going out there on those dates.

When there was a lot of interest, Jack decided not to play so he could hang out with everyone. By the time that happened, we already had our flights, not that we would have changed it anyways.

If you can 'think of far better places' to be in June, then go to one of those places.

I was simply stating your post was false in that you said "Jack isnt playing in any of those events" No, he's not, but that was the original reason why he organized the get together, around HIS convinience, so I dont see how smart money was wrong, he just phrased it in a way that looked like a jerk but his point was correct, but this is in general, what businessman looks out or cares about his customers a whole lot anyway or what they think when the bottom line is and always will be the $$$ on the balance sheet, not saying people arent good people in business, but they need to put on a facade that they like the customers, etc, when in fact the dollar signs are the bottom line above all other smoke screens......
Yes, the SB parties were all planned iun advance, this is true, but you are a master tap dancer around smart moneys post, if you turned off msnbc sometime maybe you'd stop tap dancing :mj07: :142smilie smart moneys point was the whole reason the get together was planned is because jack could kill 2 birds w/1 stone since he was going to vegas anyway on HIS terms for the WSOP, whether he no longer is playing isnt the point.........I said there are better places to be in June, but I also said I'd like to go to LV if possible, like the people on this board they seem good folks, It is just that the hotel BS is tying me up a little bit, and you couldnt argue that June is perhaps far from the best time to go to LV as opposed to the fall when it is 75 degrees and there is football going on

Ok, how can I put this in a way that even you'll understand. This isn't a 'party' or any organized event.

How about this: 'Jack and I will be out there on 6/28 and if anybody wants to hang out, that would be great.'

Whatever the original reason, it's just two schleps that chose that date for a vacation. Whining about the dates of somebodys personal vacation is idiotic.

I apologize that it's hot there in June. Maybe sometime in the future we can better work around your temperature preference and also better accomodate Smart Money's schedule.

Fair enough, yes it did originally start as you two guys doing, and yes whining about someones vacation is stupid, but I did think Smart money has some validity to his general theme though, no point in saying other feelings to get into further arguing, I just think it was originally meant to be more than you two guys and that going to the WSOP would be a nice way to also generate good will among people by planning a get together, instead of saying f**k the WSOP, lets organize something during football season and give people a bunch of months time to hear about it and go, of course now they stiull have 2 months to decide that is true.....I'm not 'whining' about temperature preferences, was also about no sports going on, of course the airfare was booked b/c of the WSOP playing and thats what hatched the whole idea, but I just said an october trip or jan during major football going on and some nicer weather would be better, but you have no argument from me in that Vegas has gotta be great and you've been there dozens of times as have others and everyone loves it, whats there not to like

since the only thing that i gamble on is football (i like to sit by my computer on saturday's & watch line movement), i prefer going during the summer months to vegas than during the football season......

mike...

why are the hotel bs "trying you up a little bit"?

maybe we can help with ideas.....

have you ever been to vegas during the summer months ?

the sites are unbelievable.....

you can sit by a hotel pool during the day & watch the eye candy, have people bring you drinks, & fry your brain...to me that's the perfect day.....

btw, jack doesn't owe anybody an explanation of why he is going to vegas...or anything else....the popularity of this board speaks volumes of his management style & how he treats people.....

smart_money.....

curious as to when are you available to go to vegas ?
