So I made it back from Vegas alive last Tuesday, but was too drained to write a trip report post until now :p
On Friday we headed to a really nice hotel in the Detroit airport to sleep before we left early the next morning. A few casual beers with a late dinner ended up being a $300 tab of drinks with a couple people we met including a smoking hot Cali chick! On little sleep we headed for the flight at 7am, and arrived in Vegas around 10am local time. Got to the Flamingo, got settled into our room and then headed downstairs to check the hotel out and made a couple sports bets and roulette bets. We grabbed a couple drinks and headed out on the strip to check things out (I absolutely love how you can walk around the streets and into all the casinos with drinks in your hand). We asked around what clubs were good for that night and got recommended to LAX in Luxor. That night we hit up the Hard Rock bar for a bit then over to LAX – it ended up being a great night.
The next day was Sunday football which called for a lot of sports betting. Didn’t do too well on Sunday but luckily I wasn’t laying down too much (saving it for my Steelers). Had drinks by the pool during the day, hit up a restaurant in the hotel for dinner and we had a quick nap and were ready for round 2. That night we started off getting free beers while playing roulette at the front of the Flamingo where they have hot dealers and girls dancing. We chatted up the roulette delear a bit and met up with her later in the night (absolutely wasted though haha). That night we went to Pure in Caesars and it was a really nice club. At like 4am we headed to some casino that had beer pong in it and played some beer pong with the roulette dealer (never been worse at beer pong in my life). Another great night in Vegas.
Our final night we decided to be a little more low key and not hit up any real nightclubs. We did a bit of gambling and laid big on the Steelers to cover the 3 point spread against the Broncos. The Steelers won and we were jacked for that. Went over to Luxor again to watch the Carrot Top show, wow great show definitely recommend it! Of course after the show we got hammered and did a bit of gambling. This is when we got to meet up with Lenny, Nick and Chris from PAL for a bit (they arrived our last day, too bad we couldn’t have been there longer – but it was nice to put a face to a forum name for nick and chris). Some dealers from Flamingo were going out after their shift so we waited and headed out with them. Ended up being another great night, which equaled 30 minutes of sleep. Got a nice meal into us and headed back to Canada.
I will post some pictures when my buddy gets them uploaded and sent over. Vegas lived up to the hype and I will probably be heading back next spring or summer!
