Going to Vegas, who's with me?



Recommended Posts

Rob and I have been wanting to go to vegas for a bit. We go twice a year. So we decided with things pretty flush now is the time to go lose all our money. LOL We are flexible on the plans, and wanted to know if some bandsters wanted to go and meet up with us there. PM me the dates that are good for you, and we'll do the town. Penny slots and free drinks!! Anyone in the vegas area want to meet up, or anyone wanting a trip to get away from it all?

You are going exactly where Lisa lives. She would probably just love to show you all the hot spots in Vegas :)

I'm feeling pretty flush myself right now, but didn't know money was an issue on this board. I had two horses win stake races yesterday...now that is money in the bank for sure. :confused: Maybe we have different concepts of flush....for me going to Vegas isn't Vegas unless I take along about $10,000 for fun, but then again I hate the slots and 21, so you would find me at Bally's playing the ponies which is what I do the best.....

Try the Big Kitchen at Bally's for some fantastic food...some of the best in Vegas.

I said I don't go to Vegas without $10,000 at the very least because I handicap horses (that is a job). Tell me when you are going and I will try and give you some locks if you play the ponies. Need to know what track you are going to play and on what day. I supply the handicapping sheets to a lot of the major tracks and do pretty well. I didn't make $10,000 on my two horses yesterday, not with trainer fees, boarding fees, and jock fees. A lot of people don't understand how many ways that money is divided up, but yes I own and handicap horses, although I don't always play anything I don't think is a lock...but it's horseracing so who can really tell...horse may get bumped, hit the gate, throw the rider, break down...you only hope for the best.

You also don't have to leave home to bet the ponies. You can go to YouBet.com or TVG if it is allowed in your home state and bet right on line....legal...yes. It is www.youbet.com or www.tvg.com . Good luck.

Good luck in Vegas.

When we go to vegas we go for a good time. We take a lot of varying amounts of money. But this time this trip is for fun, at everyone's level. Lets go hang and have fun!! Maybe see a few shows.

yes vegaswildflower, I will be there, with bells on sweetness!! So you have to meet up with us!! Those who have pm'd me, I am trying to figure a ate that works for most of us. I hope I can figure a time for everyone!! Anyone still interested please PM me! the more the merrier!

I for one would love to know where you go with kids. I know Vegas is not really the place for children but I want to go and my 2 will come with me. I am looking for inexpensive / entertaining and of course to meet some of my Vegas Pal Gals.

Took my kids in 97 and that when I found out Vegas isn't just for adults. Lots to do there and I din't even miss gambling.

Just got back a few months ago from an extended stay there and I'm ready to go again.

Mary... Vegas is fun with or without kids. When I was there there were kids all over the place and families having a blast! Have fun!

Jack , what did you see and do in vegas?

did you go snow sking at mt charleston, or rock climbing at red rock.. maybe you went out to the lake and took s cruise.. did you see any of the highly rated shows, or maybe enjoy the several rollar coaster and thrill rides around town?

ALOT has changed since 1980, in 25 years ..You should give it another try..

Thanks for the insight.. and I think your right, with such a low level of versatility you wouldn’t like it. best you stay in and just watch it on TV.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
