It Gets No Better Than This

So this weekend was one of the best. Me and my gambling crew, some of the best in the world, aka Yanni's Nine, hit the Vegas.

Lot of amazing personalities coming together to make the perfect trip. So I don't really know how to describe it or where to go from here. But this one was perfect and it deserves chronicling here on the site.

And at the end I'll drop some Mets knowledge on you all that make this post more than just a recap of a weekend in the life of young Sip.

So here are the big ten.

10. Talking life with Lindsay Price at Pure in Caesars Palace on Saturday Night.

You may remember Lindsay as Steve Sanders' Asian wife on 90210 and a key cog in the Club Dread sensation of 2003. Girl's seen a lot in her time.

9. The Wedding that almost was.

Me and cousin Jason were tending to a couple of betties from Chicago when they introduced us to their two friends that wanted to get married.

The girl could barely stand and the guy was a giant Bobby (Gotti Boy, has wire tattoo around arm, spiked hair and calls me bro). Then the bobby dropped the line, "Before I get married, I need to grab a sandwich, bro."

I was buying.

8. Cousin Jason roles with Cowlishaw.

We see Cowlishaw at our sports book, J takes him down, and for the rest of the trip we are "buying" and "selling" everything.

7. Cuse +245 and +6 v Pittsburgh

Let's just say that young Sip took this game to the cleaners. And speaking of gambling here are Sip's big 4 of the 1st round of the tourney

Texas -16 v Penn
Memphis -15 v Oral Roberts
Conn -22 v Albany
Cuse -1 v Tex A&M

6. Cousin Evan crip walking

He would make a solid hit in black jack and then hit the casino floor and drop the ridiculous crip walk. I was buying the shit out of it.

5. Ty Schubes at the strip club on Saturday.

Cousin Jason's little bro with 3 girls caressing his greatness. The kid is the best, has a propensity for having relations with his neighbors and put a giant smile on Zimy's face

4. Making it off my flight alive.

I was reltively positive that one of the dude's on my flight was a terrorist ready to take over my flight. He fit the profle, looked very professional and appeared to be making eye contact with his terrorist pal. I spent the entire flight with an eye on this guy and I was definitely sweating every move.

3. The Three-Six Mafia

Completely unrelated and about a week late but those guys made the Oscars incredible.

2. Seamus O'Toole

I'm not one to quote "Wedding Crashers or "Old School", but I was buying the shit out of "Seamus O'Toole. Let's get drunk," Owen Wilson's line from the movie. It went over well with pretty much everyone along with BD's "Get up, it's the 4th quarter." Good times from both.

1. Fading Fez

It was Wilmer Valderama's bday at the bar we were at on Saturday. Let's just say that that dude is the worst. Like truly the worst. He is the A-Rod of That 70's Show.

Dude is just a giant herb. He deserves nothing good that comes to him. He was "mcing" the party and every word out of his mouth made him look like a more giant herb.

Man do I hate that kid.

1A. Being dragged to a bar after the Sopranos by the roommate and the big fella and staying awake till 2 a.m. PT despite working on about 10 hours of sleep in my last 96.

Not my finest showing.

Anyway, as for the Mets, AFOMG tells me that Carlos Beltran is swinging a real hot bat in the World Baseball Classic, although his facial wart is still intact. Maybe his wife digs it.

VCD,
