  1. Yes. And then the whole Steve Wynn debacle happened and he exited the company and his plan was scrapped. So they actually began to tear up part of the course and then stopped, and rebuilt it and the course reopened awhile ago.
  2. Looks like more info to come, not sure yet regarding public tickets. My guess is sponsors will hand out tickets to their clients. Anyone remember if they had large gallery for these in the past? Seemed like smaller sized crowds on the course. If staying at the Wynn, contact a casino host and ask. TNT will exclusively televise the 12-hole event, to be held the day after Thanksgiving — Friday, Nov. 26, with live coverage beginning at 4 p.m. ET from Wynn Las Vegas, home of top-ranked Wynn Golf Club, the only golf course on the Las Vegas strip. TNT’s presentation of Capital One’s The Match will also be simulcast on TBS, truTV and HLN. Live coverage of the match play event will once again feature unprecedented access with players having open mics throughout the entire competition, including the capability to communicate directly with their competitor and the broadcast commentators. A partner since the event’s inception, Capital One will return as title sponsor of Capital One’s The Match, which is sanctioned by the PGA TOUR. Presenting partners will include Michelob Ultra, and DraftKings will return as sports betting partner. E-Z-GO, Wheels Up and Wynn Resorts will also serve as associate partners. Further details about social, digital and broadcast brand integrations throughout the event will be shared in the coming weeks. https://www.wynnbet.com/theplaybook/posts/wynn-golf-course-will-host-showdown-between-bryson-dechambeau-and-brooks-koepka
  3. Mirage is fine. Good center Strip location. Nice enough pool. I’ve stayed there a few times and been pleased with it. Can’t speak to dirty room reviews, perhaps it’s something going on recently with staffing and the pandemic. They have a decent sportsbook too. If it fits your price range it should work well.
  4. Current Vegas line shows OU favored by 3
  5. On LHN, Austin radio, and Texassports website ou sucks Sark rolls into FW and gets the job done, Bijan otherworldly, defense steps up and makes plays, Horns back into the Top-25 Horns defeat the Frogs 32-27 and move to 4-1. Next up:
  6. Amalfi at Caesars is really good. Cool space too.
  7. As you are probably aware, RW has three hotels within one resort: Hilton, Conrad, and Crockfords. So they vary but Conrad and Crockfords are the more stylish places to stay with Crockfords the most high end I believe. I toured the property recently but didn’t get inside the rooms. I hear they recently lowered some prices for the food court. The main bar area is a cool hangout spot with a big stage for live bands and lots of TVs for sports. The one entrance is a little whacky as it feels like just a big mall, but once inside the casino floor the space is nice. The nightclub Zouk just got going and had big lines to get in.
  8. I’m a fan of the 11AM kick for TX/OU
  9. Current Vegas line shows Texas favored by 4 1/2 over TCU
  10. On LHN, Austin radio and www.texassports.com Offense goes wild, defense work in progress, two weeks in a row of NOT PUNTING (first time ever) Horns crush Tech 70-35 and move to 3-1. Next up:

  12. That’s a nice tailgate spot. Close to the concert area and the stadium. Made it in for the Rice game and strolled by to get to the TCC to check out the Champions Club pre game. Muledick works or can go with “Are you from the internet?”
  13. What is the name of the band that was shown on the big screen at halftime after the Longhorn band played?
