Viva Las Vegas

We spent this past weekend in Las Vegas with some friends and family. The hotel we stayed at was centrally located on the strip, with a decent buffet. All the shrimp and crab you could eat. Can't beat that.
We saw one show, La Reve at the Wynn on Sunday night. It was entertaining, if not a little weird. The only drawback was the 10:30 pm start time. The absolute highlight of the trip was watching football in a sportsbook. It's an absolute smorgasboard, trying to watch 10 games simultaneously. It's almost enough to make me want to move to Vegas. By far, the best sportsbook I saw out of the 5 or 6 we went to was the one in Caesars, probably due to the fact they show the games on screens large enough to show movies. I can't recommend this enough if you like watching football. It would have been better had I won the 4 game parlay I picked. I got 3 right, but stupidly picked the over of 51 points in the Colts/Titans game. Easy come, easy go.
