So i recently came back from vegas and i really did have a good time in spite of the 110 degree weather. The heat really isnt that bad because you get used to it and because you are consistetnly drinking something..whether its alocholic or not. On the first day I got there, we didnt have much to do so we walked everywhere. The highlight of the day was when I went to the Wynn hotel and paid 10 bux to go inside the Ferrari dealership inside. They had Ferraris, Masserati, Lambos, porsche GT, Ford GT, pretty much saw 40 cars all exotics...including the Enzo...which is a fine machine..that the were selling for 1.2 or 1.6 million..cant remember. Also I saw the Miami Dallas game at MGM's sports books section...which was totally awesome huge screens everywhereeee...People yelling, drinking, and having a good time. As for fine dining..i tried to be on a budget so i only went to Mesa Grill and La Fornaio.. Mesa Grill (bobby flay's) didnt disappoint. It was damn good when we went to the NY location..and it was damn good in Vegas. As for the Clubbing scene..Vegas is pretty good. I went to the Palms where they have 2 famous clubs...ghost bar (on rooftop) and Rain (ground level). Our group went to Rain, and it was good, decent music, pyrotechnics, good looking people, and plenty of drinks.. I had probably anywhere from 12-17 shots equivalent that night...The next day was spent sleeping and resting. There was also a Optometry Pool party at the Luxor pool and the sad thing is that noone was allowed in the pool. There was however free food and 2 drinks (choices of magarita on the rox, soft drinks, budlight, budweiser, bottled water) It was ok but nuttin too special. The Optometry convention that was held and the sole purpose why Tracy went to Vegas was also an interesting experience. A ton of contact lens companies and other biotech companies were giving out free stuff. There was free wine and cheese, t shirts, pens, contact lens solution, contact lens, ice cream, smoothies, water bottles, etc. I cant wait until i go to medical conventions and get free stuff too..This is also where i found out how crazy and wild optometry students are. We went to a quiz bowl ...named the superbowl..which was for optometry students. Each school had a representative and would compete against the others while answering optometry related questions..This is where all the other optometry students were going crazy....freak dancing elvis and stuff on stage etc..
As for the gambling, i only gambled one day, the last day i was there and i won about a hundred bux. One of my dealers (dealers rotate tables) said that he had a friend that was also a vegas card dealer that recently bought a ferrari.. in fact he knew 8 vegas dealers that bought ferraris.. WTF you may say...Well apparently they were lucky enough to deal cards to all the big boys (royal ivey, Doyle Brunson, etc) And they bought those cars from their tips alone.. from one nights work. Vegas is just crazy like that... I like the place alot..and I cant wait to go there when i actually have money to spend.
