  1. I finally hit one for the first time last year with quad 3s for $599
  2. Fontainbleau casino now open on the north part of the strip looks nice. 4 pics in the link:
  3. They fixed the car and had a 10 place penalty no way around it because of the rulebook. He got hosed after qualifying 2nd and then started in 12th. The race was better than expected given the setup. I could have gone but opted to sit out year one with the potential clusterfuck situation. Word is the logistics weren’t too bad for fans. It was a big deal event for sure. Private jet parking overbooked and jets did drop off and had to park in adjacent states. And the money fronted before the weekend for gambling set records, beating out the big fight weekends.
  4. Off to a hot start: Tempers flared at the Las Vegas Grand Prix after the first practice of the $500 million race was halted nine minutes into the session Thursday night because Carlos Sainz Jr. ran over a water valve cover that badly damaged his Ferrari. The FIA said Sainz hit the concrete frame around the cover. It took another 11 minutes for the governing body to call all cars off track so it could inspect the entire circuit. The start of a second practice scheduled for midnight Thursday was delayed, and Ferrari boss Fred Vasseur raged that the "just unacceptable" incident would keep Sainz from participating. Ferrari had to replace the entire chassis and other components and was summoned to speak to F1's stewards to determine if the repairs would draw a penalty. Video:
  5. Instagram reels has pics from the plane but can’t see anyone else
  6. He’s been on my flight also, Carrot Top not SC ha. I chatted with him before boarding he was friendly. It was quite bizarre because these 2 girls sitting in front of coach were flying to Vegas to get married and they asked the FA to ask Carrot Top (who was in first) if they could get a picture with him. Dude got up and went back in aisle and took a pic with them mid flight. Never seen that before. But if you search his social media (I don’t recommend this ha) over the years he’s posted videos about behavior of people on planes so let’s keep an eye out for the SC edition? Without knowing any of the facts, I’m already gonna take SC side of any argument. Carrot Top is pretty whacky IRL as one might expect.
  7. Vintner Grill in Summerlin Sen of Japan or Kaizen Fusion for sushi
  8. When you live in Houston and Dallas and have access to the best steak joints in the country, going to one in Vegas is generally for different reasons, if at all. So I pretty much only go to STK at Cosmo on occasion and that’s for the party atmosphere and hot girls. I’m mostly worthless when asked about where to get steaks in Vegas. I’m usually focused on any other type of restaurant except perhaps Mexican food (and obviously BBQ) when in town. Having said that, it is understandable that a group of guys like to have a bachelor party meal at a steak place or maybe people don’t live near awesome steakhouses.
  9. One lengthy review just out today. More or less favorable. I’ve also never made the trek out to Brooklyn for the original. http://www.eatinglv.com/
  10. The video showed that it looks totally done. I thought one of the gossip guys said open Nov 1 but when you click a link to make a reservation it is showing open in 2 days on Thursday October 19.
  11. I’m not sure what the percentages are but if you travel around the country you will find many places where it is a button straddle. I’ve seen it in Florida and Mississippi. I had been more used to the UTG straddle.
  12. I did it once, technically. Long time ago the cute HR girl at my firm was a sooner and she had access to some vender tickets front row in the upper deck on about the 45 yard line on the Sooner side. We won the game and I was pretty close to non-methead side so it was a winning day all around plus I realized how great the view was in that location. I wouldn’t venture any further into enemy territory though.
  13. Iconic New York cheesecake eatery, Junior’s, has announced it will open its first location in Las Vegas. According to a news release, the new restaurant will mark Junior’s first location on the West Coast. The eatery, which will be located inside Resorts World Las Vegas, is set to open its doors in November of this year, according to the resort’s website. “I feel like I just won the jackpot,” said Alan Rosen, the third generation of his family to own Junior’s. “I’m so lucky to have been selected by Resorts World to open our first West Coast location inside its property. I hope that both residents and visitors to the city will also feel lucky that they will be able to enjoy the World’s Most Famous Cheesecake, as well as all the delicious breakfasts, lunches, dinners, drinks and our other skyscraper desserts.” Also marking Junior’s sixth location in the U.S., the new Las Vegas restaurant will feature 300 seats and will offer a full-service breakfast, lunch, dinner, late-night menu and bar along with the company’s cheesecake offerings. “Our goal is to continue to bring exciting dining experiences for our guests and expand our portfolio with unique concepts that can’t be found anywhere else in the city,” said Bartholomew Mahoney, vice president of food & beverage of Resorts World Las Vegas. “We are thrilled to be welcoming the first West Coast location of Junior’s and bring this beloved New York institution to our guests and visitors.” Junior’s Restaurant and Bakery has been an iconic New York eatery since debuting in the 1950s. https://www.fox5vegas.com/2023/09/19/juniors-iconic-new-york-cheesecake-eatery-open-first-location-las-vegas/
  14. Anyone tried Tender Smokehouse in Frisco?
  15. New SurlyHorns podcast dropped earlier today. Road-trip edition.
  16. RV road-trip thread of dominance. Love it. Enjoy the day gentleman. LFG [emoji1591]
  17. Watching the game from Bozeman MT today. Walking around town with UT gear on, I’m getting lots of beat Alabama and Hook ‘em comments. If our OL can play half decent today, we win this one. LFG.
  18. I’m pretty sure the bulk of the rounds at Shadow Creek are comped whales.
  19. Please don’t make me come back. I’m trying to stay retired. Thanks in advance.
