- Just a short trip to play some poker.
- I met Bill and Jerry Branger Downtown the first night to play some craps at Circa and Fremont Casino. We all won.
- Craps the rest of the trip was pretty bad.
- Bill and I played in a Triple Triple Draw tournament at The Orleans. We both had to re-enter after being eliminated. Ultimately, neither of us cashed.
- We drove to the World Series of Poker on Sunday. Bill played in a $1-$3 cash game while I hit the Crapless Craps table.
- Dana, Sue and I drove to Las Vegas while Elle flew. Dana and I stayed at Venetian; Sue and Elle stayed at Park MGM.
- We stopped at Primm, NV, on the drive in. It was pretty depressing. Very few people there, and the employees were worried about their futures, as the properties were scheduled to close on July 4. (Since then, Terrible's has offered to take over operations.)
- Saturday we had lunch at Din Tai Fung at Aria. The food was great...but our waitress forgot to submit our dessert order, and we waited for way, way too long.
- We went to Circa to watch the US/Brazil friendly. While we were there, we discovered that Stadium Swim has an exemption with the Nevada Gaming Commission where they don't have to let people in for free if they just want to gamble.
- We stopped at Slots-A-Fun to play some old coin-in slots.
- We had a great time seeing The Wizard of Oz at Sphere (which was our main reason for making the trip).
- We played the the Pinball Hall of Fame.
- Dana and I ate at Zeppola Café at the Grand Canal Shoppes in Venetian.
