Well, they say, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. And that sounds too old-schoolish for me. So, here’s my Vegas story.

Now a Vegas Story

It happened 5 or 6 Vegas trips back and remained the high point for me. A friend of mine (let’s call him John), a 40 something, is a suit in the group corporation. So, he went to a 5-day convention in Las Vegas. Two of our buddies and I decided to surprise him and come to visit him there…

We only called John when we got to a taxi at the Vegas airport. He was really mind-blowed, yet he said that it’s actually great we’re here, ‘cause he didn’t have a company to have fun with after the exhibition.

While John was lost at his expo in the daytime, we were wandering around MGM - strips, gambling, drinking, well, you know. Some events and timelines got sketchy as the ‘drink’ started to take its toll at this stage. We met some girls, had a great time with them, drinking and talking. Exchanged numbers, agreed to meet up the next day, I can’t really remember.

We ended up extending our 3-day stay to a week and went to play Baccarat to NYNY. I’m not such a good player and just wanted to have fun there. Apparently, I didn’t want to lose money and started with as little as $100. Two guys at our table were playing and winning time after time. I thought, WTF, and just started to make the same bets as they did. Guess what - I won $3000! I even won a tie bet with a 1:8 payout - you know, that stupid bet with zero chance to win! Pure damn luck!

I was heady with success when John finally joined us, and we continued our adventure altogether! We’re heading to someplace I don’t remember and met a covey of ladies from Minni something. They went to a Divorce party and invited us to join as we looked pretty bold and funny.&nbsp;

They said, ‘Honey, you’ve got a cute accent! Where are you from?’

My friends and I were not really sure about that party, and we decided to have a few more drinks in Bellagio to celebrate my gain instead. Then we headed through the Petrossian Bar and met that Divorce party at the Lobby. We gave up and had a few drinks with the charming girls.

One of the ladies dropped a hint that she never saw a water show from the room. I generously offered her to view this show from my room as I stayed in Bellagio. And we saw an 11.30 pm and a midnight show from different angles of view I have to add.

The next day my friends gently reminded me that we agreed to have dinner with the girls we had a few drinks a day ago. Ok, let’s do it. The ladies were really adorable, so why not. When we met and took a table in Mega, I noticed someone new - she wasn’t there when we first met.

That lady was a flight attendant, and she just got back from an international layover. We ended up talking to each other all the time, and finally, I asked her out. She said yes, and we spent the rest of the time in Vegas together.

We started dating and spent a lot of time together. And we traveled around the world using her airline privileges. I’ve been to 108 countries for now and counting!

That was all cool - went to Vegas, won a ton, met an adorable lady! And I say ‘No!’ to that ‘What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas’ motto!

Hey, let’s share - what’s your Vegas story?
