Go to the roulette table and bet either 10 or Black.  At least that's what I would do.  How much more could you lose?

The whole situation sucks, I'm just trying to lighten the mood here.

    Don’t play Roulette - it has a big house advantage. I guess I’ll put a bet on hard 10 at the craps tables tonight, though

    Wesley Snipes already told us.....always bet on Black. I'm in, but only for $10. Then I'll go put $10 on the hard 10, 10 times.  I'll report back!!!

    Carrottop sometimes hangs out at my local bar, in case people want to meet some A-listers. Nice guy, but be sure to call him Scott.

    OJ Simpson goes to the Costco in Summerlin.

    Update: I lost the $25 I put down on Hard 10, but I ended up $300, so I’ll take it.

    Go take a tour of Allegiant Stadium...  they aren't too expensive.  Get the "extra" tour with the drink-and-a-view package... you get a free beer/cocktail/soda and get to sit at the open lanai doors and look at the Strip.

    Go gamble.  Go see the damn.  Go lizard hunting.  Go see Lake Mead or Echo bay.  Go see Red Rocks.  Drive out to Zzyyzzxx rd.  It's a little hike but you get to say you've been there.

    At my bachelor party my cousin gave me $100 and told me to put it all on 19.  I didn't listen and kept going black a few times and won some money.  However, 19 came up that first turn.  I would have won $3600 in a seconds worth of gambling.  I didn't understand the significance of 19 at the time, but he later said because the wedding was on the 19th of the month.  Damn, that would have been a nice bet.

    If you have a rental car just drive out to the desert if you have never been. 

    Zion is always an amazing option if you don’t mind a drive.

    Hit up a dispensary 

    look up local punk shows I’m sure there are bands playing and it will be like a 10 -15 at the door.

    hang by the pool

    i know the cancellation stings but a lot worse places to be stuck.

    hell just eat 150mg of edibles put Pearl Jam on your phone with ear pods in and just walk around the hotels 

    Side note : If you don’t normally do edibles don’t take that advice and just do 5-10 msg

    Hence the side note at the end. 😎

    only do them 3 or 4 times a year and always 100-150mg. Again if you can handle it. 

    If I’m doing it i would rather go big lol

    I’m flying out tonight. Couldn’t cancel hotel so heading out. Doing Bryce/Zion on Saturday and Valley of Fire on Sunday morning before coming back home.

    Undecided on plans for tomorrow. Thinking about Antelope Canyon but not sure I can do two big day trips in a row like that. A lot of road time.

    Red Rock Canyon is really cool. Also, Able Baker is the best brewery in Vegas by a mile.

    Rent a car and drive up to Lee Canyon.  You'll see a part of Vegas that most people don't know exists.
