We talked about what you are looking forward to....but what are your goals for Vegas week?
My goal is to.....
1) Open the trip with a Tom Collins
2) Go 60% in my basketball picks. That means going 14-10 or so for 24 games.
3) Avoid a "Black XXXday", like Black Friday in 2006 or Black Saturday in 2007
4) "Take Over" a table one time during the weekend (like the Monte Carlo table, 2006 or the infamous Pai Gow table in 2007)
5) Beat everyone in golf by at least 3 shots on one of the two days
6) Get drunk on the course one of the two days. I still smile when I think of Mer and I on that public course, drinking vodka tonics for 5 straight hours....I then 3-putt 17 and 18 to lose by 1 (I think)...we then find a podunk casino, play craps for 3 hours, drive back (Mer was in no shape to drive, and I was worse), trade text messages with Kermit's (ex) stripper girlfriend....then make an ass of myself at dinner..... ahhhhhh
7) "Win" (or "lose"?) at Credit Card Roulette. My name is not being picked. Do we have a limit?
8) Stay at a $25 Pai Gow table for more than 1 hour.
9) Have enough to take a stab at a $25 Craps table session.....gulp
10) Drink patterns at a table:
- if before 9 am, coffee; after the coffee, Kahlua and Cream
- between 9 am and 6 pm: water and Daiquiris
- after 6 pm: Mr. Tom Collins!
11) Get to know the Venetian sports book ticket man by name
12) stay disciplined and avoid any World Wars (see 2003)
13) shout "$80,000" once
14) say "Hello, Bee" at least 10 times
15) yell "Backdoor Action" as many times as possible
3 comments:
1) Taste all the finest Kentucky Bourbon they have to offer (no, that is not an oxymoron)
2) Hello Bee
3) Controlling a Pai Gow Table
4) Poker, its been a long time since I last played, I can not wait.
5) If you are in a cart with me on the golf course, be prepared for a variety of single shot side bets on the other team.
6) Cabana cabana cabana
7) Unload on the Boilers ...wait, just saw the score on ESPN ...need to rethink that one.
Nice job there, Don. Losing to Illinois.
Again, I'm posting after getting home from the bars. But anyway, stop it with the fricking Tom Collins'. No man with a PENIS drinks them.
You better beat me by more than 3 strokes since my index is around 5.7 and your's is about 1.8. In my book that's a win by a shot.
OK, what am I forgetting here. Oh yeah. We were drunk after golf but we raked it in at craps at that po dunk casino. I won $600 at that bathtub shaped craps table where the minimum was what $2? And, the dinner was classic afterwards when I was describing to you how to play with the little man in the boat. And then you had the piece of coconut hanging out of your mouth like the string from a tampon. I show that picture to everyone. Ahhhh, that was a good weekend.
