Viva Las Vegas

Good day followers!

In a few short hours, I will be boarding a plane bound for the desert playground of Las Vegas. I wanted to write all of you the itinerary for tonight's festivities.

We get into Vegas at about 2230 hours at which time we will board a shuttle to the Circus Circus hotel and casino on the north end of the Strip. After settling our stuff and getting changed, my best friend and I will hit the streets of Las Vegas donned in our finest dress to rub elbows with the glitz and glamour that accompanies the Strip.

I have brought a finite amount of cash that is dedicated solely for gambling. If I come back with any money, no matter how small, I will consider my gaming experience a victory. I have been reading up on the different card games that are offered in Vegas, and I think I have a handle on the rules. Unfortunately, I did not have time to practice counting cards, so blind luck will have to be on my side.

What is more important to me than the gambling, however, is the city and culture that is Las Vegas. Let's keep in mind that this is a baseball roadtrip and that it requires me to do a community and city analysis. I will keep my eyes and ears open for what makes Las Vegas such a desirable destination besides the gaming.

It is doubtful I will update tonight when we get down there, considering the haste in which we will want to go out and explore and game. However, tomorrow I will certainly update before and after the baseball game.

As usual, I will be updating Twitter and Facebook throughout the night. Those two mediums will be the best way to keep track of what we're doing tonight.

Always take on a 3-0 pitch ;)
