    One half day at Hoover Dam. Other than that it was straight gambling and drinking. I had plans to drive to the Grand Canyon but I was getting so drunk each night/morning I couldn't do it. :fp: :lol: I'm not kidding, I think over the week I probably got a combined 14-16 hours of sleep. One morning I was so drunk and hungover the pit boss at the Sahara ordered me breakfast at the table and whispered in my ear I need to go to bed. I was at the table from the start of his last shift so it was pretty much 24 hours in the same area just drinking and gambling. :lol:

    This is no half truth here either. I remember the morning I left. The flight left at 7:50 or some shit like that through Delta. I returned my rental car still pretty smashed :oops: I also had four beers in my room that I took with me hoping to sneak them onto the plane. Realized on the drive over that wasn't going to work. So on the shuttle transport from where you drop your rental off back to the airport I start chugging those beers. Got two down on the shuttle and two more down in a bathrrom stall. :lol: Get in line, do the whole check in process. They tell me the flight has been cancelled and they can put me on the 1PM flight. :lol: :fp: SO here I am stuck at the airport....my rental car is gone...I'm shitfaced...a little pissed....what to do? Drink more! I have no idea how they let me on the flight back here. :fp: :lol:
  • That's a helluva trip, DS..I lost my ID at the Rhino on my last trip and didnt know how the hell I was going to board a plane without it, but somehow they let me.

    I think they may "bend" the rules for getting people home after a Vegas trip. :lol:

    Wow!!! Hahhaha, now THAT'S how you do Vegas!! :lol: Amazing that they let you on the plane for sure. As soon as I get through security at the airport I'm getting my drink on and I don't plan on being sober again until about Tuesday afternoon :lol:

    You just never know. All I can say is this Allegiant Air is a nickel and dime operation. 75 ticket MT to LV...ok...now select your seat...each seat I choose they charge me money for it. Do you have carry on luggage...more money. Do you have checked bags...more money. :lol: I wonder if I will have to pay to take a piss on the plane? :lol:
