   Ok guys I am not a gambler but since I am going to Vegas for the national I thought I might as well take a chance and bet on my Saints to win this next Super Bowl, who knows we may be the first ever home team to win the big show. Now what I need to know is where do I need to go to place this bet.

   Any Sportsbook in any of the major casino's. They all have one. Pretty amazing to walk into for the first time. Big ones are Harrahs or the MGM Grand. Good luck

   It's probably safer to just give me the cash. I'll tell you later if you won. There are all sorts of special rules that could have you lose that cash. I know those special rules. How much cash are you planning to lay down? Enough for me, I mean for you, to buy a Bugatti Veyron?

   Randy for a sports wagerer like myself it's almost like heaven walking into a sports book in Vegas......like Chris Matthews talking about Obama....get that tingly feeling running up and down your leg.........and don't give it to Jeffrey...........you might need Guido to collect if you win.

   You just HAD to go and tell him about Guido, didn't you? You can kiss your cut goodbye. This was your idea.....

   I like the one at the Excalibur because I really like that casino in general and the camaraderie is great for big games and races. I also like the one next door at Luxor. You get your own area to work and your own little TVs. Not as social as Excalibur, but fun.
   
   Everyone who goes to Vegas should take the class on Craps and play the only bet in the casino that pays the actual odds. I showed my ex to play this way and she won $12,000. She graduated from $5 chips to $50 chips without informing me then did her best little annie fannie impersonation as she came up to me with several cups of chips saying, "They're just giving away money over there!"

   Heck with that....I'm going through with it. If you can keep him off the forum until I get his cash, I'll drop your cut to say......35%. I know it was 50/50 before, but you've made this harder. Typing is money....
   
   And STOP calling me Mr. Wallace! How many times do I have ask? It seems like "Mr. Bowman" is the only one listening.....he calls me 'Mr.", or simply "Jeff". I call him "Pet". He hates that. Which is exactly why I do it...

    I used to call him Pet but he got upset...........don't worry Randini is working the room at GIS like a call girl.......no chance he'll be on the computer.

    so glad you guys came to my rescue. I will hold of on my bet with you "MR. Wallace".
    
    To tell you the truth I really never gamble with money but I figured that by placing a bet in Vegas on my Saints to win the Super Bowl I really cannot lose my money until the next SuperBowl or at least until the playoffs start. so it will fill like I did not lose the money for almost a year and by then it probably will not make a difference.
    
    Thanks again guys you may have saved me some money.

    I'm glad I could help. I was always looking out for your best interests. You really need to be careful in Las Vegas.....there are some very bad people walking around here.

    Ok I will admit that I chickened out after hearing about the Bounty Scandle and possible suspensions that may come along with it. Not looking good for my home team now.

    I hope none of you posted bets in Luxor. A friend of mine who runs the tournaments out here for the Golf Channel came home from a meeting and stayed at Luxor. He thought he had caught the flu but it turned out to be Legionnaires Disease. I asked a cabbie about it and he said it was well know in Las Vegas! I hope if anybody stayed there that you came home healthy!
