    BIG congrats on being able to this one off, I know how excited you've been for this.

    Everyone I know trying to get there has had numerous flight cancelations and changes, fingers crossed for you things stay as they are.
    Have a great trip

    I've started a spreadsheet with the requests for the "virtual group pull" (I might need a better name for it - that's not really what it is but can't think of anything better yet):

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lBQRAmYJbfTiEYL77dcBvc11tPQdspt3e4CqyIMlJGQ/edit?usp=sharing

    So far only $1000 is spoken for (with @momnkid taking two spots - although I'll count one of those as Jim's), so hopefully I can get another 30 people to join in with their requests!

    @bebe, @IrishDave, @MrsIrishDave, @VegasMonkey, @VegasChic, I'm happy to add you to the list :)

    Even @Riders can let me know what magic VP machine to tackle, although only at $20 / whack max and not the $500 / whack he's been doing lately.

    Ok how about wolf run gold. I found it to be a fun game, there is one close to the Identity Desk .05 denom, 120 credit or 60 credit totally up to you :)

    Bat Splat!!! The Thunder Cash machine in the HL room at 50c ($10) bet has been pretty good to me lately

    A positive development today. I noticed that Delta had reduced prices for the same flight showing online, so I called them to ask about it. After 30 minutes of waiting on the phone, a very nice Delta representative verified that prices did actually drop and I now have the same flight, same seats, for $620.06 CDN.

    Almost another $300 CDN of gambling money. So about another $200 US to feed into Stack 'em High!

    Lol! Love the gambler math!
    And, if you are still taking suggestions, I vote any Wonder 4 that has wicked winnings, play all 4 wicked winnings at 2x bet, usually around $4. Good luck to a fellow Libra!!!!

    Not sure I'm up for heading all the way up to Wynn for 4 spins (or does DTD require 2 credits? that's just 2 spins if so) - I might have to find a substitute at Cosmo. We'll see if there are other requests to venture up there though.

    Purchased and reserved my parking space for Terminal 3 at YYZ. $110 for 4 days of parking. I need to get in on that business.

    I think today I'll also reserve Presidential for ground transportation in Vegas based on so many positive VF reviews.

    Starting to put my super detailed itinerary together today. So close I can smell it. No wait, that's me - time for a shower!

    I know it's cheaper, but I like being able to be in control of everything. Plus my return flight on the Friday lands at 9:30pm so with a 2.5 hour drive home after I don't want to waste any time waiting for a shuttle, etc. In theory it also puts me closer to the terminal on departure so I can leave home a bit later, thus having a quick lunch with @Mrs2BOBCATS. Or lunch and a quickie.

    If you're still looking for machine suggestions at Cosmo, I'd like to suggest Mustang Money 2 in the HL room. It's on an Ainsworth Multi Win 7 machine (second from the left in the first photo) where you can select the game, denomination, and number of lines. Every now and then I'll run some free play through this game and have had decent luck in the past. I usually play Mustang Money 2 at 5 lines and 50 cents, so $2.50 / spin.

    For something I've been planning for years, now that we're less than a week away I feel so unprepared.

    Monday is a holiday (Canadian Thanksgiving) so we're looking at 3 more days of work after today and then a half day on Tuesday before heading out. Vegas baby!

    Our little local down the road is FINALLY opening (they've been allowed to open for god knows how long now). It's by reservation only to start. TBH I was 50/50 about going since Vegas is 5 days away but @Mrs2BOBCATS seemed pretty keen so it didn't take much arm twisting - we're in for a 2-hour session at 9pm tomorrow at the local. And since we (well, more specifically I) can't do anything for two weeks after I get back, we're going golfing together tomorrow afternoon one last time this summer. If we golf together again in the year 2020 that would be great because it would mean the two of us have travelled outside of Canada somewhere warm, and that would mean the quarantine law in Canada is done, and that would mean we've got a working vaccine readily available. I'm not holding my breath but there's always hope.

    5 days away now. I'm so not ready.

    I wish they would allow testing at the airport when you get back and if negative, the quarantine period could be reduced.

    Ok everyone, if you haven't yet put in your requests please do so by this weekend so I can compile everything and get my notes organized.

    Looking forward to including as many people as possible into the virtual celebrations!
