Dirty Vegas. First song on my car radio the other morning on the way to work. I took it as a good sign.
Dirty Vegas!

Re: 2018 Vegas Trip
I bought my Oz Lotto ticket. My chances of winning the division one jackpot of $40,000,000 is 1 in 45,379,620. If I win more than $1,000, I’ll get a plane ticket and see youse all there. Looking at past results, I’ll need a division three. Odds 1 in 180,078 which will net me a few grand. Draw is in 25 minutes. Fingers crossed!

Re: 2018 Vegas Trip
Ok. Now you should use the rest of the cash for a stiff drink or two. Or however many it will buy.
Also just one week out folks.

Re: 2018 Vegas Trip
Other Dives I want to hit are on this map.
The Smuggle Inn.
The first two yelp reviews are enough to convince me.
Money Plays.
Two things jump out at me. Shuffle board and open 24 hours. Hell yeah.
http://moneyplayslv.com/
Champagne Café
The pic in the lower right corner of their web page. Should be enough to convince you.
The next two don't have a lot going for them except open 24 hours.
The 4 Mile and the Decatur
Both have good Yelp reviews and judging from the picture are some good old school no bullshit dives. Strip mall dives.
The Island Bar.
We always talk about heading for the Island so now we fucking can.
It also boasts no beer over $4.50 and darts. So if you have darts bring 'em in your checked luggage. I sure am. Also open 24 hours.

The Huntridge tavern
Open 24 hours and Bourdain stopped there for his Vegas show as well as the Double Down. It never made the show but it was worth a shot for him it should be for us.
Dino's is billed as the last neighbor hood bar in Vegas. I have to hit this one before gentrification destroys it.

The Griffin.
Off Fremont not far from the Atomic.

I also just looked at the distance from the DD to our hotel. 15 minute walk maybe a 30 minute stumble. That may be my headquarters.

Re: 2018 Vegas Trip
I'm getting ready for Vegas.
Carton of smokes. Check.
$5,000 in cash. Check.
Adult diapers. Check.
Sharpie (so I can write my room number on my forearm). Check.
I'm good to go.

Re: 2018 Vegas Trip
I`ll bring sniffing tobaco as a gift for Willies when me and AD meet him later on at Badfellows.
Should I put it in my checked in luggage or keep it with me personally. Customs might think it`s drugs or something.
It`s sealed in original plastic though

Re: 2018 Vegas Trip
I was planning a clandestine appearance but I forgot that this week my Parents celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary. Since I am their oldest spawn, it is incumbent upon me to attend the festivities. Plus, I don't relish stumbling around drunk in 110 F heat. I get that here in TX.
So maybe post pictures. If you can skype, that would be cool. I'll be lakeside. And I feel that is ok.
Carry on.

Re: 2018 Vegas Trip
To all of you Las Vegas-bound drunkards,
Within 48 hours most of you will begin your journeys. I'm looking forward to sharing many drinks with you all. Travel safe and arrive in one piece.
See you there.
