A friend of mine went to Vegas once and we only got 2 texts from him in the group chat the entire time.
Day 1: I’m up!
Day 5: I’m down.
The flight from Denver to Las Vegas is just over an hour. I was meeting some friends in Vegas for a bachelor party and texted them saying I was taking off. The conversation went like this:
Me: Flight is taking off now, will text you when I get in.
Friend: Just sat down at the blackjack table at Treasure Island. See you in a bit.
Time skip ahead to me landing.
Me: Just landed. You still at Treasure Island?
Friend: I’m down 4 grand. Went back to the hotel.
Here’s the list of things I like about Vegas:
- Getting on the plane to leave
I mean, I have a foolproof way to always come out on top at a casino, it’s a simple trick that gamblers will hate you for.
- Dress smart, it makes you look like an easy mark.
- Make sure to wear black shoes, polished to a shine, this will be important later.
- Own the casino.
- Ignore 1 and 2.
I have heard of someone who did just this but still went bankrupt multiple times.
I thought it wouldn’t be hard for him. Maybe his brother Chris might have more luck.
Chris Peacock? Is that what a guy gets when he stands too close to the camp fire?
I’ve lived near casinos my entire life, and I can’t understand the appeal of the gambling part. Unless it’s the shiny lights. I like those. Those are nice.
that’s how they get ya
The lights are fun when you’re drunk.
I just go to the strip clubs. At least I get some proper entertainment for the lost money then. Actually I do hang out at the quarter slots. You get free beer.
Went last night to stay at a hotel with a casino to celebrate my wife’s birthday. I play poker a lot with friends but only a few times at casinos, and my wife only does slot machines. We never go to casinos and this is the first time in like a decade. Got away from the kids for the first time in 7 years so after she quickly lost $80 like it was nothing to slots we were already good.
After talking, she finally agreed to a long-time promise about going to the strip club together since she’s never been to anything like that. I have to agree with you, I may have lost the rest of my money, but it was a dam great time and an amazing first-time experience and something I hope I never forget (for both of us since it was way different than just going solo)!
That’s something that never would have happened staying at the depressing slots, which may have been 30 more minutes tops to lose what I spent there. 1 bucket list item checked, lol.
A fool and his money are soon parted.
