6. "Celebrity" sightings in Vegas
Golfer Mark Brooks (his daughter sat next to me on the flight from Dallas to Vegas-he was in first class)
Dick Butkus-walking through the casino at Ceasar's AND my friend paid for his autograph the next day
Scott Ian of "Anthrax" (the band) fame- going to get coffee and breakfast to go at the Belagio
The Hippy couple from this year's "Amazing Race" walking on the strip
James J. Bullock (pretty sure it was him) hanging around with and flying with (he sat with the daughter) Mark Brooks on the flight BACK to Dallas from Vegas

5. I probably lost about $500 gambling
$60 on football- If my friend hadn't so hated watching the weather channel maybe I would have known that there was NO WAY the Browns and Bills could go over 36 in that blizzard :grr:

I actually was up about $250 in blackjack Monday morning (MOOOORNING) and then fell back when the cards just kept falling against me (the free double Beam & cokes in the little cocktail glasses didn't help) but I still came out up $100-$160 or so


I lost my ass on blackjack the first night-into-morning ( I found on that being "lucid" helps) and on roulette the second day.

GREAT meals Saturday and Sunday nights. Fantastic.
