Geeking Out in Vegas



I ended up returning to Vegas. My Friday night gaming group thought it would be a great idea to go to Vegas and roleplay there. At first I was indifferent toward it and eventually did not want to go. However, I was convinced otherwise and before I knew was driving to Vegas at 5:00 Friday afternoon.

We arrived at 11:30 and it took forever to check in to the Riviera. We then headed out and ended up at "Treasure Island." We found a lounge, ordered some drinks, pulled out Changeling: The Dreaming and proceeded to roleplay, drink, and smoke until 3:30 in the morning.

Next day we headed out around 11am and headed over to the Aladdin for the breakfast buffet but it had already switched over to lunch so we ate at a restaurant. We then went to see the Matt King Magic show but Matt wasn't there and we saw his backup who was very funny. Got some drinks and a massage at the Aladdin.

We returned to our hotels and then headed over to the Hilton for the "Star Trek Experience." This was the coolest themed event I had ever been to and I really got sucked into it. We also got dinner at Quark's Bar and talked to a Pharangi and a Klingon.

After that we took a taxi down to Fremont street and then returned to watch the Billagio Water Show. After an exhausting we walked back to the Riviera, got a quick drink and went to bed.

Next morning we got the buffet at our hotel, stopped by the General Gamblers Store and then headed home. Overall this trip was more fun then the last for a number of reason. Things that bothered me about Vegas before weren't bothering me this time. We had a plan and were with someone who had a good idea of what to do. The Star Trek Experience was awesome.

I'm guessing the "message" you got was the text from me about Pearl Jam, right?

=p

That's cool, because now that you edited it, I look like a dork.

Are you sure that wasn't Mac King?

Or perhaps Mack. I don't know.

Mac King, Matt King. Whatever. The point is we didn't see that guy, we saw another guy and he was funny, flapping crane funny if you know what I mean.
