At our going away party in Chicago back in January our good drunk friend Gil got the idea that our close Chicago friends and us should get back together in Vegas. Being slightly inebriated at the time we thought it was a good idea. The next day we get an email from Gil saying the hotels were booked thanks to his timeshare points.
Fast forward 9 months.
Gil and his wife Leigh Anne, our friends Jeanne and Patrick, and us went to Vegas for the weekend. Matt was sick when we landed, but quickly started feeling better. The main idea was for the guys to bet on watch a lot of sports, specifically college football. On Friday we hung out on the strip and lost money on craps. In the evening we all went to the Rio and watched a Michael Jackson tribute with a very good MJ impersonator. He had the moves and the voice down very well.
On Saturday the guys hung out at the sportsbook at the Las Vegas Hotel and watching an insane amount of college football on an insane amount of TV's. The girls drank mimosas and laid by the pool. Matt's games did not go his way, except for Baylor covering the spread, so that was a silver lining. That evening the guys went to downtown Las Vegas to go to the older casinos. The girls went to watch Chippendales. The guys did pretty good at craps, but the real winner was Karla who took what money Matt won and tripled it. The next morning was some detoxing and a flight back to Denver. A very fun weekend with some very fun friends!
