just booked for may

usually a few day baseball games during the week (9 am start time in vegas) so indeed there is plenty of gaming options - all building to saturday where the derby dominates the day and the fight rules the night

Broncofn,sorry it's myffpc.com. Pix of last years draft are available on the message board under FFPC General Discussion

have just locked in at The Golden Nugget,,looks like the town is expecting a huge turn-out for derby/fight (no big suprise) as comps are harder than ever for a small fry like myself to scare up and the higher rates reflect that, as jimmag stated tho, lots of sporting options to help soften the blow, will probably rent a car for a few days and either pop out to red rocks canyon or over to hoover dam - will hang friday at the MGM for all the hoopla at the weigh-in and will watch the fight in one of the pay-per-view rooms at one of the MGM hotels - bottom line is,,flight is secure and locked in at the gold tower so let the count down begin

sweet man im turning 21 by may and have my friends bday and fam's bachelor party in may.THE MONTH OF MAY IS GONNA BE SICK! 

hey VG - what route should I tell the cabbie to take to downtown - seems like everytime I leave him on his own we are headed into the tunnel and off for a 35 to 40 dollar ride to downtown-  thanks in advance to anyone who may know

nc1,some drivers will ask 'mind the freeway' due to construction or some traffic..Up to you to say no.If they do tunnel you anyway,you threaten to call the taxi authority at your arrival and wait to pay the fare.You have a free ride as the driver will leave.

 

hey VG -- how far to reno- worth the ride? have considered a return visit to laughlin but was wondering if reno was worth the effort- thanks

Look at Laughlin before Reno......

thanks VG - pretty sure I told you I made the journey to laughlin last time out- found it to be pretty cool but I was like the youngest guy in town at 56, plan on gettin down to vic & Anthonys to join me for the chops, thinkin early in the week of may 1st -

2 weeks to go ,starting to like "take charge Indy" a bit for the derby and getting geeked for the journey

ill be in vegas may 1-6 gotta take a few days off every now and then

Agreed on both points, I would suspect being somewhat of a rookie horse player I will have several sheets working, liking union rags , Hansen, gemologist and take charge Indy because of the borel factor if nothing else, should be a good one anyway

 2 days to go, will be posting daily updates from fremont street if anyone gives a rats ass

NC -  Check this place out on your trip.  My favorite Italian in Vegas.  https://www.ilmulino.com/lasvegas.html
