Headed back

[Grama]

So just a quick update. We fly in at about 8 Thurs night. She lands about 30 mins after me so hopefully I can go get the car real quick but either way no worries. Haven't seen her in 2 weeks so straight to hotel :0corn I'm upgraded both ways and she has plenty of drink tickets so hopefully we both have a decent buzz when we arrive.

Fri night - Dinner at Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill restaurant.

Sat night - Anthony Cools. The wife finally went for this once she read a review that said only volunteers go onstage. I hope it is fun.

Sunday we will have brunch with my aunt and uncle who live there before we fly out at lunch.

Other things we hope to get in is a trip to the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop. I absolutely love Pawn Stars and I have never checked out the store. She will have a spa day so that will be my heavy craps day. We have never checked out the strip shows and since the Treasure Island shows titties now a days for the pirate ship sinking we may check that out too.

Anything else I HAVE to do??? I want to guarantee we go back so this trip is ALL ABOUT HER. When we were traveling there all the time all I wanted to do was throw the dice to the point we even missed our reservation at the Voodoo Lounge one night. Since then she has been sour on Vegas so no matter what I will cater to her wants. I will be a show man, if she wants to shop we will shop. I will buy her whatever within reason to the point when we leave she is asking me when can we go back. :0074

No sign of the shirt.

2 days in and down big. never seen such cold dice. unreal:shrug:

I did see a guy today in a nice blue shirt. for a moment the wife and I thought it was the shirt - but it had very thin white pinstripes. we will keep looking.:mj07:

 

[kickserv]

No pinstripes......


Fuck that shit.


As for the cold dice.....put em in an oven for a bit....that should help.

Hang in there...better to win late than early so you take those $$ home.

So it was an awesome trip. Down almost a grand but cut my losses in half the last night.

The highlight of the trip was Anthony Cools. Samson, I owe you one for suggesting him. That was the funniest show I have ever seen. I was laughing so hard I was crying and almost pissing myself. The wife and I were laughing the entire next day as we replayed the event. If anyone goes to Vegas, this is the show to see. The louder the crowd got the dirtier he got, making it funnier and funnier.

Flay's restaurant was out of this world. I had the veal chop and she had the steak. The steak was the best one I have ever tasted. Well worth the couple hundred dollars for the dinner and atmosphere. I recommend it for a night of fine dining.

We met the Aunt and Uncle at the champagne breakfast at Main Street. My aunt and uncle live there and they are Boyd group emerald members so obviously this is why we were there. But the breakfast was good and the place was somewhat nice.

The Suncoast once again were great hosts. Friendly dealers, good looking waitresses even if they are all 35+ yrs old. Overall, the trip was awesome. The only way it could have been better was to have won. But the wife started playing craps with me at the end of the trip and she even got into it. That was well worth it in it's own right.

As for the blue shirt, we saw another guy with a pimp blue shirt on. He had a hooker on each arm so we thought this may be the famous shirt. My wife asked where he got the shirt and he said at the Mall in Caesars so I don't think it was "THE SHIRT". But we tried man.

Until next time......

Good effort on the shirt......:0074
