Dave and I got up and went to the tables early.
Met up with everyone for lunch, which ended up being a trip to In-N-Out Burger. That was a major goal for the trip, and it was successfully accomplished. While there, Jason got a text from Suraj that seemed to suggest he was in Vegas (he was a maybe due to family), but at the end of it he said “just kidding.” We were confused. Then Suraj called someone else to find out where to meet us. So it turned out he is in town, and he met us at the In-N-Out Burger. Of course, we forgot to get a picture of the In-N-Out Burger accomplishment, but if we made too big a deal of it, we wouldn't have a reason to keep going on the trip.
Discovered O’Shea’s, the Dr. Dremo’s/Irish Pub/Dive Bar of the Strip. Has beer pong in the back, a Burger King and a Subway for its food options, and has “Strip Poker.” Strip Poker is a couple of tables of poker in the front looking out at the Strip.
Lee remembered that Saturday was Bastille Day so we eventually went down to the casino Paris. We figured there would be some sort of extra celebration because of Bastille Day, but alas, we were disappointed. Not only was there no extra festivities for Bastille Day, but none of the staff that we spoke to had any idea what we were talking about. None of the strangers we went up to knew about it either. We decided that they were saving the big party for Super Bastille Day, which comes the next day, July 15, and recognizes the French bourgeois who came back to seize power from the poor.
There was more gambling, etc. and we were out until 5:30 am. Goodnight.
