Official SJ.com Las Vegas gathering, April 1-April 3, 2007

Thanks, Idaho.
Who is still in for a meal Monday night before watching and making crazy parlays on the title game?

 

I've asked Cadet to be the new 'host' for the dinner and stuff. she was sent a list of those who sent an RSVP for the dinner.

Later

 

SC and I are cooking up a plan.

No, we're not cooking. Just making a plan.

Details forthcoming. If there's a possibility you might be in Vegas, PM one of us to get your name added to the list.

 

If anyone wants to float me $250 I'll be there. And by float I mean give.

 

If I had an extra $250, I totally would.

 

And by "totally would" she means no chance in hell.

 

No, I think she means it. Who else is going to bring us drinks by the pool?

 

I totally meant it. A girl should be able to have her poolboy with her at all times.

 

And he surely would love to be serving pink or blue drinks poolside for a couple of days. But alas, he'll be stuck back east.


That's right, third person. Eat it, bitches.

 

OK, here's the plan:

Saturday men's Final Four begins at 3 p.m. Meet at the Caesar's Palace sports book at 2:30 p.m. We'll either stay at the book or go to a bar at Caesar's.

Sunday women's Final Four begins at 4 p.m. Meet at the Las Vegas Hilton sports book at 3:30 p.m. As with Saturday, we'll either stay at the book or go to a bar at the Hilton.

Monday we'll have a late lunch at 3:30 p.m. at Garduños at The Palms. From there we'll either watch the men's championship game (start time: 6:20 p.m.) at the restaurant, the Palms sports book or another bar at the Palms.

Anyone is welcome to join at any time, or we'll see the group on Monday at 3:30 p.m. PM me with questions!

 

Man ... wish I were gonna be in Vegas. Hope ya'll have fun and remember to post on here how the outing is going. You gotta live up to when IJAG, me, Wicked and Sam_Mills were all in one, tiny room in Toronto -- all on our laptops, all on SportsJournalists.com. ha!

 

But who's going to scream "Swing that sh_t wide open! F_ck yeah!" at 0200?

And does Vegas have anything that can measure up the Hockey Hall of Fame within a block of the primary hotel?

Seriously, have a blast for those of us who can't go - and keep us posted.
