World Series of Beer Pong 4 - Day 3 |
We happened to be walking right past the Bellagio just as the fountain show was starting. Normally I'd chalk it up to good timing or right time right place coincidence, but since the show starts like every 15 minutes, our presence here during the fountains wasn't anything special. But it still was enjoyable, as the Fountain Show at the Bellagio is one of the few things that still amazes me about this town. A grand overblown spectacle will never cease to amaze me, because I appreciate all the time and effort that is put into bringing it from conception to presentation. |
I realized at this time that I didn't have a very good picture of the front of the Flamingo, and since this picture is a piece of crap, I still don't have a good picture of the Flamingo. Not that it matters anyway. There's nothing bad I can say about the Flamingo, but there's not too much good I can say about it either. Hey, at least it's not The Oasis or The South Point. Not that there's anything wrong with the previous WSoBP venues, but they were small potatoes compared to what the ballroom in The Flamingo could offer. Kanz went to bed, because his flight left at something like 7:00 in the morning. Mine didn't leave until 11:30, so I went over to O'Shea's to see if anyone I knew was hanging out there and playing beer pong. There were tons of people there, but after our disappointing play out here, I was ready to call it a night and a year. |
Kanz somehow managed to lose his bus pass, and since he was all out of money (his paycheck never got deposited into his account because of the holiday, leaving him with no money to drink or gamble with out here) I had to spot him a one way bus ticket. They don't do transfers out here, just 1 ride use and all day passes. So when we got off the bus, we had to walk back to the Flamingo. This wasn't necessarily a bad thing, since we had both alcohol and In-N-Out Burger to walk off. We passed through the MGM Grand, and I saw this soon to be dinner hanging out with a live lion. I mean c'mon! Who does that? And then he gets eaten, and people say that they didn't see it coming. |
