Las Vegas day 8! I start off at Fremont hotel whining about my trip being half over.
I am up at 7:00 and out at 8:30. The line at Dunkin Donuts is so long, but also so worth it.
I decide to play at The D this morning and I hit Queens.
Grabbed McDonalds breakfast on the way out and went back to my room to eat it.
I grabbed what was left of my stuff and it is time to officially start my stay at El Cortez. I had to play some Ultimate X on the way out of Fremont. I lost $120. Girl, byeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Once I get to El Cortez, my buddy Royal Flusher asks me to get him a Keno ticket, which I do. Of course I cannot find the fucking Keno Lounge. After a tour of every inch of the casino, I finally find it by the sports book. YAY.
I have a Buffalo machine I like here. But someone is on it. As I sit down at the one behind it, I hear my machine giving off a hand pay. No worries though. Look what my new machine did.
And.
Damn right I won a jackpot!
WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
I ended up taking $1900 out of that machine. I was able to do the kiosk promo and I won $10 free play.
Then I found it. BUFFALO KENO. OH WOW. See, I just placed a Keno bet for Royal Flusher and got a Buffalo hand pay so something something justified degenerate?
Believe it or not, I did not like this game at all. It didn’t help that I lost $100 without getting a bonus. I will try it again on my next trip.
I went to my room to put my winnings in the safe and then decided to go for a massage at Neko Massage. This place is one block away from El Cortez. This is the second time I have been here. I really hope they stay in business.
I play some more Buffalo and feel something wet on my lap. Oh hey the water bottle in my bag is open and everything is soaking wet YAY.
To the room to clean that up. Back out to go degenerate. I lost FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS. Yikes.
I get dinner to go at Siegels. I think this means I don’t have to deal with their shitty service. But after I placed my order, more people showed up also placed to go orders. After I was waiting for 35 minutes, all the orders came out together and my food was cold.
I went to my room. The Loudy Loudertons are next to me. They have the room door open and some guy is sitting in a chair with a very booming voice. The doors here are very thin so his voice is super loud in my room. It is Halloween in Las Vegas and you are choosing to spend it sitting in a chair by the door in a room, drinking alcohol. Like…go outside. Says the woman who is staying at El Cortez because this was the furthest away from the action comped room she could get for Halloween.
I end up falling asleep and waking up at 1:00 am. I kind of don’t want to gamble and go through tomorrow’s budget tonight. I do want a cigarette though so I go outside to smoke. It is still Halloween out there and there are drunk people all over the place. Outside the El Cortez. Just hanging out all over the driveway and street. Why?
I smoked a couple of cigarettes while staring intensely at my phone so that no one would talk to me. I watched the clock turn back automatically. What a fucking fun Saturday night in Las Vegas Baby!
And then I went back to bed.
