    Glad to see your first post! She’s back in Vegas already, so might not respond immediately. From what I’ve heard, MBay is fine post covid, as long as you don’t mind being all the at the south end. I think the tram is still closed.

    Good memory! We were supposed to go the last weekend in January, but decided to cancel last week. We’re going to Biloxi instead, 1/25-1/29. Message me if you’re going to be in town!

    Please start a new TR. The continuance of this thread is making me want to schedule another trip to keep it going even longer!

    I sincerely commend you for this. When I lived in New York I would just bust through groups of tourists (wanted to give them the stereotypical NYC experience!), but it's a little more awkward to do that here. And now with social distancing, people walking slowly six-abreast is infuriating. In addition, groups standing at the top or bottom of an escalator dithering about where to go should be arrested.

    The Linq interior is definitely very cool. I'm not a huge fan of gambling there, but it's a really nice space. Back when Frissora was CEO, they were actually intending to use it as basically a test lab for new technologies. It was called "Casino of the Future". They didn't fully go through with it, but the main casino looks great.

    Oh, I wish! My next Biloxi trip isn’t until March. One of these days, our trips will coincide. Can’t wait to hear about your trip. (I feel safe there.....not crowded at all.)

    As a person who grew up half my life in and near NYC I can relate. Nothing worse than meandering tourists. I made an art of fast walk dodge and weave. I have yet to let that habit die. It's ingrained in my DNA. And when waiting at a light in my car and people meander by I hear " knees to chest" and want to yell it at them.

    Nice hit!

    But hope you don't normally toss a kicker! If you do that most of the time, you're honestly better off playing DDB given similar paytables.

    But at Cosmo, single line TTB and TDB are worse than DDB. For TDB, better to play DSTP with or without multiplier when possible. Super DDB is a good game king choice for 25-50c.

    Somehow, the cursive letters with real diamonds make the necklace very classy.

    Both myself and @Wiscolovesvegas alluded to "the necklace" earlier in the TR, but we were good girls and didn't spill the beans.
    Speaking of good girls (um, not), your recap reminded me of your not-so-good influence on my Doug (who used to go by "hubs" but I guess we're all friends here and it's high time he had a name LOL). Allow me to tell it:

    So the four of us are slotting around, wandering here and there playing a few but for the most part watching Tracy do her almost maniacal hit and runs, while sneaking jello shots doled out of "the" backpack by Jim. So just about every time she either gets a shitty bonus, or the slot chooses not to cooperate with a nice win, she used both hands to do a double "flip of the bird" with her middle fingers in a big FU to each mean game. My memory is a lil fuzzy on the what and why, but it was a short while after this that I think Doug was playing some slot and didn't do well... we were watching and all of a sudden he sticks out his hand at the machine with his palm facing up and his pointer finger out... his nice guy imitation of Tracy's FU middle finger! We laughed. And it stuck thru the rest of the trip. He'd get aggravated at a slot, or just out of nowhere for no apparent reason, he'd shoot that pointer finger out like he was gonna poke someone in the eye Cracked us up every time.
