Las Vegas Get Together

[Jdhanover]

wish this was over a weekend...tough to do during the work week for us working stiffs.

Hope everyone who can go, does and has a great time!

Yeah, we’re sorry about that. We had two main concerns: Keep expenses to a minimum (hence Palace Station and unfortunately, room rates triple for Friday and Saturday) and also the ability to sit closely together in the book. M-Th, we can likely be consolidated in just 2 rows. Friday-Sunday, forget about it…we’d be scattered all over the racebook.

We were hoping a 6 month heads up would allow some to schedule vacation time but that obviously doesn’t work for everyone.

I am coming in on Saturday night leaving Thurs morning. That was the best pricing on flights out of Philly, American does its best to take your last $ if you let them! To Bob's point the room rates (inclusive of a Saturday night) averages $50. I hear the oyster bar at the hotel is amazing, also they make a mean burger.

A horseracing buddy of mine will be joining the festivities....Tom let's talk about what cigars to bring....
