I'm an old Deadhead. I'm going to see two Dead & Company shows there in mid July. It's probably better than watching a hockey draft
That should be quite the show.
UFC is doing a show there in September.
Vegas in July should be fun. I went there once in the summer. I think it was 105 every day.

I haven't been there in 30 years. I spent a few hot summer days there back in the day. Once, after a debauched all night gambling session, we went outside and it was snowing. I thought I was hallucinating.

It’s been about 10 years since the last time I went. My wife’s brother is a firefighter in Vegas and he works the strip. He has seen some shit.

I bet he has. I really think it's underrated as a weird place. I went there a lot when I lived in LA. Good stories, and a few not so good stories.

You lived in LA? I had no idea.
reply
Yes. For four years in my early 20s. A long time ago.
reply
Did you get out to any Dodgers games.
I have been to LA at least 10 times but I have never gone to Dodgers stadium. Definitely on my stadium bucket list. Just never seemed to line up when I was there. I have been to all the other California ballparks.
reply
Oh yes. I was out there in 85, when the Mets were getting very good. Gooden in his prime. I went by myself to the first game of a Dodgers Mets series, and sat next to an old guy from NY. He had extra tickets to the next two games, but didn't have a car. He gave me the extra ticket in exchange for driving him to the games. We had a blast. I do recall the Mets took two of three. I already told you my Anaheim Angels game around that time and the Reggie Jackson incident.
