- Our "hotel" was a pit. We had arrived in Vegas without reservations, and this placement service on the outskirts of town set us up in some dive called Holiday Suites (not to be confused with the Holiday Casino (now Harrah's) on the Strip). It was brand new, but it was horrible. Lamps were broken, the ceiling was crooked, and there were roaches in the sink.
- I bought Trivial Pursuit just before we left for Vegas, so we played it a lot in the room.
- One night we were hungry, so we went to the supermarket and bought Sara Lee, a big thing of milk*, and plastic cups. When we got back to the room, we realized we didn't have any utensils, so Mike picked up his entire devil's food cake with chocolate frosting and ate it like a sandwich.
- We played at the Flamingo for the first time, and I learned about odds on craps.
*Even though the room was a dive, it did have a kitchen with a refrigerator.
