Completely worn out from the first night of the HH All-Star Vegas Meetup. Highlight was Pattimelt winning like $500 on the slots, Northwest winning the Blackjack tournament at the Western Casino where sitting next to him a 65-year old appearing (but more likely a hard 45) gambling addict woman screamed that she was getting sober, could someone please hurry up with her double brandy ..."I cannot stand to ever be sober again!!!" she hollered... two guys getting into a fight about re-signing Frankie and coming to blows and both leaving (I still have one's sunglasses), a homeless guy cracking someone's aces in the poker room at the Nugget... Look I am at a Kinko's south of downtown trying to wake up. Missus Halofan is checking her email and then it is on to Day 2.

Wow....
I’m so glad I’m not there. I am personally having the time of my life here at work trying to beat a Thursday deadline.

Nothing like mixing passionate sports fans with alcohol. LOL!
I went over to Twinkie Town after the HRD to congratulate Morneau for winning and got flamed by a Rangers fan that insisted Hamilton had won the derby. The Ranger fan said that because I was an Angels fan, I could never believe that a Ranger player could actually win anything. Needless to say he lost the argument over there.

Sounds like a great time.
I wanna party with gambling-addict woman.

Frankie fight
Blog fights are a lot safer.
vladtheimpaler - July 15, 2008
TAKE THAT BACK OR I WILL FUCK YOU UP RIGHT NOW
...
Sorry, blogger rage took over.
Who fought over Frankie?
Caseys Kiss of Death - July 15, 2008
Thats what I want to know
Might have to do a process of elimination from the who showed up list. Find out who has been defending Frankie and who wants to let him go. Maybe do a Post/Poll on who we think fought!

does patti ever LOSE anything?
I’m really hating her
ladybug - July 15, 2008
I want to know how patti is getting on with the Great Ashtray Heist cuz I want mine, and I also want to know who the HHers who tangled over Frankie were
Fess up boys. And no, I don’t work for Las Vegas Constabulary nor I am I secretly watching you :) I just NEED to know.

full details will come from patti. Woman has a steel trap brain
ladybug - July 15, 2008
This woman does NOT have a steel trap brain..
at least not this trip, since she spent most of 48 hours in a Motrin and Vicodin induced legal high.
Damn, it was good!!!!!!!! (Before you all freak out, I have to have surgery on my right knee—so I’m on some serious drugs so that I can function until the surgery can be scheduled!)
After the All Star game, we had dinner, then I went off my separate way—Put $20 in a slot machine of the Wizard of Oz, and the next thing I know, I hit a bonus and my total was $192!!!!!!!!
Gotta LOVE Vegas!!!!!!!
Moved to another machine—was playing and enjoying the air conditioning, when here comes security and they take this guy DOWN!!!!!!!! Let me tell you—that was something to be seen. 2 security guys that were built like BARTOLO, taking down this drunk that had stolen a guest’s $400 payout slip—he must have been on something, cause he wouldn’t just go with security—he tried to fight them, and they ended up putting his face into the marble floor and sitting on his ass!!!!! Of course, this happens RIGHT ACROSS the aisle from me!!!!!!!!!! Why should Patti have a relaxing trip??
2 things made the trip even better—
1) Came out of the hotel this am to find out that Vegas was having a Thunderstorm, so I got to walk down the middle of Fremont street doing the Gene Kelly “Singing in the Rain” thing.
2) When I got home, I proceed to open all my mail—and find a padded mailer from the VA, which normally carries my medications. So I open this envelope, and I get 240 muscle relaxers!!!!!
if I was getting a buzz off my drugs before, now I’ll be even worse.. but I should be able to get thru a trip to NYC in a couple weeks before I have my surgery!!!!!!!
I’m ready for the next trip to Vegas!!!!!!!!!
pattimelt - July 16, 2008
Wow sounds crazy
Especially the fight and a homeless guy playing poker and beating the Aces? What did he have anyway? Like 38o?
MH252525 - July 15, 2008
he had pocket jacks.
He always cracked my pocket kings with a 67o two hands earlier.
Northwest - July 16, 2008
You just blew the
“Whatever happens in Vegas stays in Vegas” thing.
It’s all fair game now.
Note to anaheim angel: Does your stat magic extend to Vegas?
I’m gonna TRY to work this.
vladtheimpaler - July 16, 2008
Whatever happens in Vegas...
ends up on a sports blog.
Huh?
;)
Downing Rules - July 16, 2008

ladybug - July 16, 2008

ladybug - July 16, 2008

Depends more on Acuda’s 21st birthday than the specific weekend…
