Don't pass people are the worst on the highway though.

I don't play games named after poop.

I watched James Harden play Craps at Wynn once though, it was pretty entertaining. I think he was still with the Thunder then.

Craps is the most exciting game in the casino with the most action. Poop or not.

I love me some craps.

I like my odds ( and length of play/free drinks ) better at blackjack but it's 70% blackjack/20% craps/8% roulette/2% slots for me - with a stop at the sportsbook if there is one.

Last time I went to Vegas was first weekend of the NCAA tourney.

It was like 70% at the sports book. So much fun. Came out ahead (although KU fucked me, or I guess Auburn did).

I like, first thing, going to the book and placing all my bets for the day.
Then just checking in/taking breaks from gambling to watch part ( or all ) of a game at a bar, grab some food, find my ( hypothetical ) friends.

Speaking of Vegas (not Vega, wish he would come back), last time I was there, maybe 8 years ago for a guys long weekend during the NCAA tournament, I probably spent a total of 30 minutes gambling, rest of the time I was out at the pool or watching NCAA games at a bar, sometimes at the pool. The noise in casinos just bothers me and the people there is general, unless it was one of you guys, which I did meet quite a few KU folks, none named Vega though :(. I mostly did sports bets and called it good. Won some, lost more.

Vegas is on shortlist of last places I’d visit during COVID.

Yeah, there's no way I would go there now. I've only been out of KC once since March and that was Beaver Lake in early June (a buddy owns a house there). Never really left the lake house except for boating and riding SeaDoo's.

Last in LAS last Oct. Stay downtown nowadays. Not quite "old strip" (which was da bestest) but closer than the strip as it is now.

Craps and book.

Was up nicely on the table. Shared the love with my good good rollers including a greenie who couldn't stop giggling and didn't know when she rolled a number or hit it. Was up, up, up but took a dump when I got thaaaaat too much toddied.

The book pulled my a** outta the weekend jam.

Got. Back. To. Even. -ish. BAM!

Really feel good about this.

So I got that going for me...
