Sol Aristatel Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Some 32 years ago, I personally put on a display at the old EL RANCHO in Vegas that is still talked about by some inner circle of posters here.I stopped in at approximently 5pm one evening with my buddy just to play roulette for a few bucks and snag a couple free drinks for each of us.To make a long story short, I didnt leave that table until 9 o'clock.......the next morning!!I sat there and played roulette and drank for 16 hours!!I can only remember bits of pieces of the evening. I remember on NUMEROUS occassions, everytime a new dealer would come to the table, I would put $500 on black and $500 on red.........and the dealer would be stunned. I would tell them it was to see how lucky you are for me. Understand, the best scenario with this is that I breakeven and if God forbid a 0 or 00 appear, I would be out $1,000.I dont recall ever losing one of these the entire night.In the wee hours of the morning, I was virtually the ONLY person in the entire casino playing a table game............I had like 3 pit bosses watching me play roulette. LMFAO. I am sure I was quite loud. But wtf, there was nbody in the joint.Remember one time falling backwards and lying on the floor after a tough beat and just laying there until the pit boss told me to get up.....sort of like the Nick Cage move in the movie LEAVING LAS VEGAS.Well, I must have had well over 30 beers by the time my little fiasco was over and I had lost about $1,200.I remember walking out of the casino and feeling the heat of the sun. Asked a tourist what time it was and they said 9 o'clock and I thought to myself it sure stays bright out late here in Vegas .........thinking it was 9pm and not 9am! Got back to the Frontier hotel where I was staying at and ordered a $30 breakfast that consisted of 6 eggs, a pound of hash browns, 2 lbs of bacon, and a gallon of iced tea and whatever else( I ordered three breakfast platters).Got my composure together and went downstairs and bet a dime on some game to recoup my losses.........and it won as I recall.Long night in Vegas as a young lad.

plommer Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 One of the things that annoyed me about Vegas was the escort scene. They advertised and looked good on paper but when I talked with them on the phone they said that $300 hr was for dancing only, anything more you had to tip for. A $300 fee to showup!! I was never that desperate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sol Aristatel Posted May 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Interesting, if not entertaining, bit of Vegas history. Can you believe I was dumb enough to play roulette back in the day? And the $500 each on red and black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FISHHEAD Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 LOL, of course the 2lbs of bacon was an exaggeration.....,However the $500 on red, $500 on black true, survived all of them, but didn't matter in the longrun, in fact, would have been best losing one early on in the fiasco, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a bunch of great drunk Vegas/Laughlin stories. Would make for a good thread if people had a bunch to share. Think I tried that at EOG like 3 years ago and it was a dud. Maybe I'll give it a whirl again some night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FISHHEAD Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Diabler, were not like you(congrats), but most of us wish we were sent to the minors after one strikeout against the ladies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
