That front bar at the Flamingo is night is LOADED with hookers at night. I love watching the interaction. They should have a cover charge to watch this sometimes. It is actually very entertaining to watch. LOL

I remember Wahoo, he was a linebacker for the Jets back in the '60s. I don't know if he played long enough to be on the Super Bowl team.
what I really mean . . . I wish you were here

Loved watching Wahoo wrestle.big john wrote: ↑November 17, 2021 5:05 pmReminds me of Wahoo McDaniel. He was a native American football player in the AFL that wore the name "WAHOO" on his jersey.LIPH wrote: ↑November 17, 2021 11:09 am Good morning Ken and Penny. The Hurricanes beat the Golden Knights 4-2 last night. Except for about 5 minutes early in the 2nd period Carolina totally dominated the game.
Carolina has a player named Ethan Bear, he's a Cree Indian from Canada. Earlier this season the Hurricanes announcer said when Bear played for Edmonton last year he had his name on his jersey in Cree symbols for one game instead of English and they showed a picture of him holding up the jersey. There was a fan at last night's game wearing an Ethan Bear jersey with the Cree symbols on it.
He was also a professional wrestler.![]()
Larry went to LV and never went to the strip...not even to Mville. I disappointed that he didn't bring me a palm tree swizzle stick.

Re: Nat'l Take a Hike Day WEDNESDAY @ the MSC
I'm at Beer Haus and there are 3 bartenders, all wearing t-shirts. One says LET'S MAKE POUR DECISIONS, one says BEER CURES WHAT ALES YOU and the third says TALENT STOUT. They used to have one that said BEER MADE ME DO IT. I tried to buy that one the first time I was here 5 years ago. One employee told me they weren't for sale and another one said they only had women's sizes.
what I really mean . . . I wish you were here

Ohhh....trust me....My wife and I walked into the Golden Nugget in downtown Vegas and sat at the bar. Nothing was said. A cold Peroni was sat in front of me. That has happened in multiple airport Sky Clubs, especially ATL, and even once on Royal Caribbean's Liberty of the Sea's (Our favorite ship). Not to mention locally at home......

My wife and I have some really close and dear friends. They are somewhat "older" than us, but you would never know such. We used to travel maybe every other month to Biloxi, MS with them, which is as good as it gets for small gambling towns. (Biloxi, MS has a half dozen casinos directly on the Gulf of Mexico, great places to eat, free drinks, etc.....like Nevada but a whole lot more cleaner) We haven't been over there in some time due to the current situation.
Anyways...some time back, my friend and I (Let's call him Elrod) were sitting at the bar at the casino having a few beers and gambling. Now I must explain, he was probably 75 or so at the time, maybe older. But again, you wouldn't think that upon meeting him. This "Girl" sits down to next to him and is immediately his "friend"...I kept saying in his ear, "Elrod, Hooker ! Hooker ! Hooker", but he wasn't listening. On the other side of me this rather "Large Woman" sat down, who at the end of this long story was an undercover police officer watching the hooker.
To make a long story longer, Elrod's wife (Lets call her Penny) came up to the bar and I caught her attention and was pointing to the girl whispering "Hooker, Hooker, Hooker".......she blurted out as loud as could be, "He can't handle what he has at home".
The hooker left the bar, and I told "Elrod" that the girl next to me was watching, and that she is an undercover detective. In front of his wife, he simply says, "You are very voluputous".

Re: Nat'l Take a Hike Day WEDNESDAY @ the MSC
Same here but from a 6s to a 12s. I had to go to 2 stores because I wanted a purple phone and they only had it at the apple store. At both the ATT and Apple stores I swear the techs somehow alerted the entire staff and told them to come and look at my ancient phone. You would have thought the Smithsonian was calling and asking for the return of their phone.Dr.Corona wrote: ↑November 17, 2021 4:38 pmJust starting to do the same. Went from an I-phone 6-S to a 13.
