Sorry for the delay in the posting. Carol flew out to Cleveland to catch a show
with Janice, so I had the kids at the beginning of the week, then Carol got the
flu, knocking her out, which then resulted in Morgan getting the flu. So Wyatt and I have been trying to avoid
everyone and everything. At to top it off, its Morgan’s birthday today. I planned on waking up early to do the post,
but was a little hungover and ended up watching the F-1 race from bed. What an ending. I’m sure if I gambled on F-1, I would have
had Hamilton to win the championship resulting in me burning down my house after
that ending.
Anyway onto the Vegas trip in 2017. Nothing major happened here…pretty quiet trip
other than Wiz getting into it with a guy who was watching us play BJ. Wiz was already on tilt and then this guy
wouldn’t stop hovering and commenting on our hands. So after asking him several times to leave,
Wiz got up and confronted him and backed him down out of the Salon. Pit Bosses didn’t really react and just let
it go on.
Lots of UTH and Baccarrat sprinkled in with some great
golf. Southern Highlands and Shadow
Creek. This was my only time playing
Shadow Creek. Was pretty impressive. I remember being hungover and not being
able to hit the ball. On the 3rd hole I said I needed a drink and a
cigarette. Our caddy asked what did I
want. Minutes later I saw a guy running down to the green with a pack of Marlboro
lights and a vodka tonic. Amazing
This year we had a lot of action on the parlays. I got lucky and was the only winner in our
group parlay which means that I got a free dinner. Unfortunately this was on one of the nights
were we didn’t have a planned dinner. Everyone
except for Wiz and maybe Lee decided on going the sushi restaurant, which I was
good with.
Dinner that night was at Japonais in the
Mirage; Layup earned a free dinner as he was the "1" from the 1-6
parlay yesterday - we treated him to dinner at Japonais, but I think he was
expecting something else. This - and a parlay ruling we will talk about tomorrow
- requires some more details on how the parlay works. Where can the winner
"cash" his dinner?
Ok, Eric leaves out a couple of things. First, we couldn’t get a table so we had to
sit in the lounge section, where we were all on stools. Our table was even a stool. We order a couple of rolls since we couldn’t
really eat and that was it. My free
dinner was basically 3 pieces of rice. I
was hot about it. I’m still pissed
because of something that happened to me in a future trip. The dinner should have been continued to the
next night when everyone was present and we had a table to sit down at. But no, the rule was that it had to be cashed
in that day. Whatever. Keep this in mind when we do the November
2019 recap.

torn here. This should be a layup for
the Browns, but I don’t trust them.
