    Keep it rolling, MCaan. Will you be watching the FSU/Notre Dame game this evening? As an FSU grad I'm looking for a win. Cheers!

    Same! Go Noles! My son is a Senior and will be at the game sitting in a block with his Fraternity- I’m so jealous!

    @MCann as it was said above, you’ll still have a great time solo. As much as I would love for my wife to attend, she generally doesn’t, but I don’t get all sad about it since we all must be doing relatively decent to be able to go to Vegas whenever and I’m sure many less fortunate people would love these opportunities us on the board have. It’s all about perspective.

    You’re also hitting some great wins there, keep kicking ass. We’re all looking forward to seeing more and I’m sure a bunch more big hits are coming your way.

    Oh, and GO NOLES!

    Great start so far.

    Say @MCann where is that multi-denom Pinball machine that you posted in your first post, I know Cosmo but in what general area? Thanks.

    Yep, having dinner somewhere around half time because I mixed up time zones again, but I'll watch the beginning and probably the end.

    Fun fact, I sold my tickets to the game for more than my airfare and rooms cost for this trip, so it's a profit situation!

    Immediately outside the left hand hallway to the boulevard tower if facing toward the elevators, right behind the big row of lock it link games that's on the wall there. I'll add a pic to this post if I remember. There are at least 4 more multi-denom pinballs over by the $5 machines outside the left side of high limit, but those are the 3 credit machines. The single machine next to the elevators and restrooms is an old 2 credit, and theres a 21 Gambler next door to it!

    And gooood morning. Didnt sleep great. Neither of my TVs turns on, and club noise from Paris was bad even though I'm all the way at the top here. I usually fall asleep with the TV on, and that drowns out the sireens, club people, and obnoxious exotic car people. Bed was great though, and of course I woke up a little before 6am local time. Oh well!

    Oh, and the temp is in the 70s and breezy up here, so nice! And having another drip drop before I try and snag a couple dead hours in the casino! Had one before bed, woke up dry as a bone!

    Great first day. I now you’ve been there several times when it was slow. How crowded would you gauge it is on the holiday vs the rest of the summer? Wondering if the return of masks and delta breakthrough infections are causing a slowdown. For years I’ve travelled there on Labor Day and stayed that week. I prefer slow times. After the surge in travel and a few other reasons I’m not back until November. You trip is making me regret not taking me normal September trip.

    ‘Continued good luck to you. Make $500/day and you will be able to go back to FC next trip.

    It's pretty crowded, all things considered, but less crowded than last thanksgiving weekend and less crowded than pre covid holiday. I had to wait for a room to clear out in Boulevard tower because there were zero vacancies above the 20s when I got here.

    Eggslut already has a line wrapped in to the hall. It's not open yet.

    @MCann, curious about the red shoe out front on the first floor. When I was at Cosmo in June it wasn’t there - that entire area was a big void. Wondering if it’s come back or if it’s gone for good.

    Well, I guess it's our TR tradition now after these past few years...so...

    This is fabulous liqueur. Reminds me of the moonshine Ricky's dead pappy used to make. God bless him.

    Have a great time, Mac.
