Vegas / WTF?

Just got back..... had a blast but....

Vegas has gotten so expensive, even mid week. GEEEZZZZZZZZ

7$ beers from the hotel bars? I paid 10 bucks for vodka sodas? WTF?

Are those the most expensive cabs in the world?

Food $$$$ 300 bucks for dinner last night at Mesa in Caesars.

Went 6 of 6 on my sports bets and still came back down a little.

You now need to lay some serious cash to have any chance of paying for your trip. ( I was with the GF so that is always going be a drain on the winnings)

Still out of control.

The GF loves the shows.
We saw "O'' totally cool.... seen it twice the girl loved them.
We also saw this Adult hypnotist Anthony Cools at Paris... Too funny and super dirty.

Love a good laugh here.

If anyone is going check him out / very reasonable price as well.

I think the poolside food/cocktails added up.
I got a few tickets but i was the only sports better in our group of friends so they disappeared quickly. Plus I made only six bets in three different casinos...
Didn't get chummy with any of the book guys this trip...
Just seemed like cash was flowing thru my hands and still i could get ahead big.
I could have come home even but while my GF was getting ready for the drive home I hit the black jack table and dropped a few.... I always do that chit ...

Nice... O
No hook up here.... I live just close enough and like driving enough to make a hook up in my case a bad idea...

Never buy a drink at a bar inside a casino!!!!

Sit at the bar.

Put $10 in the video poker machine.

Order your drink

Cash out

Give the guy a couple bucks for his trouble

Obviously your first time to Vegas. $300 for dinner at Caesars?? Are you crazy? Buffets are the way to go, next time avoid the "high end" restaurants and stick to the buffets. You will be better prepared your second trip there.
