dchogs Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Originally posted by DUSTINMFOX By the way.....you won't need DirectTV....

You'll love watching the games in Vegas...trust me...make a small 5-10 dollar bet and drink for free the whole game at Mirage or Bellagio i second dustin's call here. the only thing better than watching games at a sports book, is being there in person.

TheKurp Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 This coming from a guy who just a few days ago wrote that he wouldn't miss a Redskins game to go sit on a beach in St. John? Man, I had respect for you. I pictured you as the hardest of the hardcore. Now you tell us that you'll be trading home games at FedEx for Las Vegas of all places? Blasphemy! Just kidding. The time to experience living in different places is best done when young, when one isn't handcuffed with too many responsibilities. I've never been to Vegas. I'll probably never go. However I look forward to reading your impressions once you're there. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might not be able to attend every home game anymore, but I damn sure will be able to watch every game. Virginia or Las Vegas, I wouldn't miss a game for anything. If you do happen to ever make it out to Vegas, let me know. Judging from previous posts, you sound like you'd be pretty fun to hang out with.

cfujskins Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 One of the fastest growing cities in America will add some more Redskins fans to the mix;) I see those pics of you being f**ked up and all at the tailgates and Im like "man, this guy is hardcore and loves FedEx and the DC area". I got a great deal of respect for a guy that moves from his childhood home to another place, let alone cross country to another coast. Luckily for me, Ive never really had ONE childhood place (military parents, although when people do ask, I cite Texas as my original home). Well, I hope all goes well with the move. And BTW, you are going to love the climate and time zone once you get used to it.

Judging from previous posts, you sound like you'd be pretty fun to hang out with. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to make it out to Vegas. But like Krispy Kreme donuts there are some things in life I have to forego because I have no self-restraint. Not that I'm a big gambler. However just last month I dropped $600 in a place called 2001 Odyessy in Tampa while on a bachelor party road trip. I wasn't there but 3 hours. Put me in Vegas where the illegal is legal and I'll be taking out a 2nd mortgage on my house. Now if I could just stop rollin' on weekends..... JUST KIDDING!

And that's why I'm doing it. I'm 23 and I need to experience more than Sterling. I always have the option to come back, but for now, I need this big change in my life. It'll be good for me.

At least you know your limits and can avoid potential problems. My offer still stands. Except now if you come, it can only be on the weekend.

redskns21 Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Originally posted by herrmag Be careful!! A lot of people that live out there are degenerate gamblers. I've known a few people that have moved out there, only to move back after a year or two b/cuz they gambled away all of their money. But, as long as you have common sense and are not prone to throwing your money away, it should be a ton of fun! Good luck! Man that's just silly! I've lived in Nevada for all my life and know of only 1 dude that I grew up with that is a degenerate gambler. Welcome to Nevada Thito! Maybe we'll all hook up in AZ next year for the Skins game.

cowboykilla Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Damn dawg. Harsh news for the Crew indeed. I can only wish you the best. I just turned 22 so I have started contemplating making similar moves, but as CEO and Co-Founder I think the only way out of D.C. is in a box for me. I know you, and you will have a great time in Vegas, so no one can hate on the decision. You will ALWAYS have a spot reserved for you in F-51 and you know this.

Tarhog Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Good for you thito...like Kurp said, take some risks while you're young, you'll be glad you did later. I know you'll be missed at F51. Just do me a favor? If some pockmarked rich guy offers you a cool million to spend just one night alone with him in his Mandelay Bay penthouse suite? Just say no man. Trust me. I've been there, and although the money's nice, the nightmares, they DON'T go away.

I'm sure we'll see each other at a game or 2 next fall/winter. They won't be able to keep me away from FedEx for a whole season. Originally posted by SmashMouth Your wife going?

I go for draft day each year, and make my yearly Skins win the superbowl bet. I'm in the hole at this point :doh: Also, every casino is a sports bar 5Arrington6. Those places come alive every Sunday during football season. Keep us posted Thito. I will be there the first week of April for 3 to 4 days, and if your going to be around, you can join our party of 30 or so, for some killer times. Keep in mind that the rent is low, and so is the pay. I have friends, and family who live there. Also keep in mind SF, and LA both are a 45 minute plane ride, and we have a huge following of Skins fans out here. A lot of us goto the AZ game, and this next year will be no different.
