    My Trip Report

    Can't believe I'll be in Vegas SIX times this year... new record.

    This is #5 and a spontaneous trip out of the blue planned a month ago when my good friend from college, Buckeyestud on here aka C, said he's flying in from Qatar for a trip.

    My previous reports this year:
    1/9-1/13/15: Teach the family to degen, and O-H the highs and lows! PICS!
    TR: 2/20-23 Spontaneous trip! Notes & rants, mostly PICS!
    4/30-5/5 2015: College reunion #3+PLAYOFFS+THE FIGHT+ DERBY+VP+LIVE+PICS!
    7/24-7/27: Downtown & Cosmo Solo LIVE TR with lots of pics. Beat the heat!

    He's staying comped at Cosmo, me at PHo. This is going to be another live TR as I've been enjoying doing them. We're going to attempt to BOTH being posting live updates simultaneously in this thread. While we plan to hang out together most of the time I'm sure we'll have our own side adventures.

    C texted me at 3pm today that he's on board. 13 hour flight from Doha to Philly then Philly to Vegas another 4-5 hours. I fly out at 7:30am from Ft Lauderdale, 5 hours later I'll be on the ground.

    TO DO LIST:
    1) Get Royal #3 of the year
    2) Reach Diamond at CET (1500 TCs away)
    3) Eat at Mon Ami (would be C's first time)
    4) Eat at STK (mine first time)
    5) Hit up TAG and try as many craft beers as possible (using Untapped app thanks Trig!)
    6) Bet baseball parlays, bet Thursday night NCAA/NFL football
    7) Try a Verbena cocktail

    And that's it! Nothing big planned, lots of roaming and deciding on the fly.

    Let's goooooo!

    As usual, barely made my flight.. valet, straight thru empty security in new fancy FLL terminal 4 and we were already boarding. Exit row legroom on Spirit is a must.

    Winning already. No taxi line, room ready before 10am. In a resort room, bigger than Hip but no view. All good

    You're welcome! Do as well as we did in Tunica and you'll be fine! Regular TR coming later this week. Live is tough, but I know you do it well!

    When you get a chance please add me as a friend on Untappd. Screen name is Vman96

    Good luck!!!
