Night At The Grand Victoria

I had one hell of a time last night,
My wife and I with a few friends went out to the Grand Victoria casino/ resort in Rising Sun Indiana.
We arrived at the casino at 4:00pm Valet parked (for those that don't know Valet is free to casino patrons).
I had taken $1000.00 for my wife and I to gamble with and had split it between us, On the way into the casino entrance there is a cute girl selling beer so we buy beers, we signed up for the Players club( it's free as well) to start earning comps and walk inside.
Ahhh, the smell of the casino, stale beer, cigarette smoke, and yes the jingling of the slot machines all around you, the people laughing and cheering.

I'm Feeling lucky tonight....LOL

We all pretty much split up and start to play, I like to start light and hit the nickle slots, I found a good one I really liked called Money to Burn, I turn 20.00 into 55.00 and move on. Then I went to the .25 slots and lose it all..lol So I start all over again.
I played slots most the night, but I did hit the 5.00 Blackjack table and even tried my hand at craps (boy was that a mistake...lol) anyhow, I later catch up with my wife and she is up (again) last week she won 750.00. I'm down 100.00 at this time but with her being up we aren't far off being even.
At 11:00pm we decide to go get some dinner, we went to the casino Buffet, now that wasn't cheap...18.95 per person But I thought hey it's all you can eat steaks....LOL Besides when we signed up for the players club they comp'd us 10.00. The food was great, service was fantastic. One thing about the casino's THEY KNOW HOW TO SERVICE CUSTOMERS.

So back to the casino, more beer, more slots, having a blast. Later on my wife finds me again and says honey you ready to go it's 4:30 and I'm like.... WHAT?? Holy shit I didn't know it was that late ...or early....LOL So we cash out and go to the valet get our car and we are on our way at 5:00 am

I wake up this morning and I'm seeing what the damage on the night was, (remember we were drinking and have dinner) In my wallet I find out after 13 hours in the casino I have 987.00....LOL

GREAT TIME!! GOOD FRIENDS, And yes for me..... a CHEAP DATE...LOL
