The Frontier Implosion Party
Perks of Living In Vegas Man, last night was AWESOME. Here's how my day went: I woke up, played Guitar Hero 3 for a while, then left the house at 7:30pm with Travis my old roommate from Colorado. We went to the Bellagio and picked up Maria Ho, parked my truck on the roof of one of the Fashion Show parking structures as our plan B (we had heard that they weren't letting people on the roof of the Wynn) and walked over to the Wynn. We scout the roof, find out that we're cool, and start the party in the poker room. We started a $4-8 mix game playing 2-7 Triple Draw, Omaha 8, Badugi, and Crazy Pinapple just the three of us on table 1 in the top section and ordered cocktails. Within half an hour the game had filled up with Jared, Danny, Joe Tehan, Adam Spiegelberg, and Justin Sellers. Every time we ordered a round of drinks we would play a "cocktail pot", and whoever won that one had to do the tipping. It was great times, but I could not win a hand to save my life and was even playing decently good losing $361. By the time we quit at one there was a must move game going with Gank and Micon in it and eight people on the list. LOL.From there we wandered upstairs and began tailgating on the back of Jared's truck. We had 4 18 packs of beer which should have been enough, but shortly before implosion Danny pushed the cooler around on a skateboard and sold "a lot of it". He made enough to pay for the beer and a full tank of gas and as the tower fell we all finished our last beers. There was probably thirty of us at implosion time. Others there that you know were Jon Friedberg and Shannon Shorr.
The tower was a "small" one, only 16 stories tall, but it was nonetheless incredible. They had an awesome fireworks display and then BOOM. Our spot was awesome because we were so close and the small 3 story building in the front blocked most of the dust and debris from hitting us. Check out the videos out there. They're awesome.
Peace and good luck,
Devo
