As I mentioned in my last post, while going to bed at Four Queens, I set the sun as my alarm clock. I ended up awake at 5:00 am. I was out of my room at 6:30, first stop: Dunkin Donuts for coffee. Dunkin Donuts is a huge part of why I love downtown. First of all, it exists. Second of all, you do not have to walk ten miles to find it.
I played around Binions a bit. I love Binions and would love to give them a proper degenerate session. My last many trips to Vegas, I have low rolled them. I also wish they would reopen the hotel. But from what I understand, they have an asbestos problem which would make that a project that would probably not pay off.
I started off playing Buffalo, which got my heart racing faster than the extra large coffee, as the machine makes this insanely loud noise when you insert cash. I lost there, lost at Cleopatra Keno, lost on Double Double Bonus video poker and “won” a deck of cards in the Motherlode game.
I went outside to take the bus to Santa Fe to redeem a MyVegas reward for a free buffet. I did this last year and had an accidental Keno win that ensured I will do this again every year.
The bus comes, I sit down and the next thing I know, I have a win even bigger than the accidental Keno win. There is a PUPPY on this bus! Oh it was so soft and so sweet. I got the tiniest puppy kisses. I did not take a photo because that would have required removing my hands from the puppy. I. LOVE. DOGS. SO. MUCH.
