Our group is headed back for MDW, and after using this site in the past felt a contribution was in order. We are all (3 of us) between 30-40, single, and have been to vegas several times, and know our way around re: the pools and clubs. We usually do tables or cabanas, but wanted to try going GA (host walk ins though). We were comparing our experiences and demonstrating a point to one of our friends, who was asking why we need to spend so much at the clubs. This was supposed to be a "proving the point" kind of experience. Since we were going back relatively soon, we tried the GA route. We discovered something in the process that was completely unexpected, and the opposite of what we have been doing for years. Check it out.
Day 1, Friday
We all meet in Chicago, and are on the same flight. My friends are on the second (and final) leg of the journey, one from S Fla. and the other 2 from the east coast. The guys had a few drinks on the way into O'hare and were feeling good by the time we took off. Across the aisle, we noticed three attractive girls who were lit, and being in first class means the drinks keep coming. We chat them up for a bit and the girls end up being from S fla, so our boy took the lead in getting them onboard once we land. Great flight so far and we are all feeling good . We land, check in at Cosmo, (the universal favorite for our crew), and get to our rooms. Everyone has a 1 bed terrace w a fountain view, and the rooms can connect if wanted. We text our guy @MDC and he gets us right in. Not doing the bed or cabana here is a first...However we all gamble and have been drinking since the plane ride, and we sit down and each take out markers. The waitresses here are all amazing, and tipping them gets a double every time. We are pretty toasty at this point, and 2 of the 3 of us are up over $2k in 90 mins. We color up and ask the waitress for another round for our descent into the pool madness....
Here we find a wild, diverse group of girls from Ecuador and Venezuela. These women are looking for some gringo...and we were happy to welcome them to our wonderful country. At this point, I am thinking "where T F are we going take them to drink and hang out before the attempted close"? After 30 mins of pool time, we go back to the gaming pavilion for a bit with the ladies. Our waitress from earlier appears quickly and gets our drinks going fast. She once again makes everyone a double, and gets a nice tip for the great service. The guy who lost a bit earlier recovers+$300, and buys his marker back. We have finally beaten the MDC tables collectively..not an easy thing to do btw. We were hanging out with the girls for another hour or so, and more drinks +hot latina women = fun. We take the party upstairs, open up the connecting doors, and the girls are asking for room service. We order and the food comes up 30 mins later. At this point, the first guy is hooking up in his suite, and the girls seem down for whatever. We pair off, close those connecting doors, and since I could use a shower, I get in and 5 mins later my new friend appears. Thats where I will leave Friday afternoon.
We said our good byes to the girls around 9, got ourselves in order, and had dinner @Zuma at 10:30. Amazing sake selections, even more amazing food, and excellent service. Its midnight now and we are ready to hit Omnia. We get to Caesars, play the tables for a few, pre drink a couple of rounds, and then text our guy. He gets us in, and I am thinking "how can I do Omnia without a table". We are feeling pretty good from the sake with dinner (finished the bottle) as well as the ciroc/red bull on the way in, so all we really wanted at this point was water. This was where a reality check hit us for the first time maybe ever. We are in sea of people on our way to the DF, when we see a group of bachelorettes passing us going the opposite way. The girls are complaining about some guys that were being overly aggressive towards them on the DF. The one girl stated "why are guys with tables acting like total a-holes"..Of course I had to listen to this crap as we were moving slowly down to the DF. As it turns out, I was talking to the bride's best friend. She had been having a bit of a rough night. So i ask her to tell me about her night, and her and two of her friends follow me up to the bar for a round. (miserable experience, ordering a drink from the bar in a club) but still determined to not get a table. 30 mins later, we get served, I tip the bartender well, and ask her for expedited service if I come back. She agrees and I am drinking with the girls, and hearing stories of 'how guys at the pool today thought they were kings of the universe" because they had real estate. Being that's our crew's usual route, I explained that not all of the groups with real estate treat women poorly.....After playing psychologist for an hour, I noticed the most attractive of the three was giving me the look. No need to explain it, its just the look. I text my other two friends and one replies he will come up to play wing. He does, and we hit the DF with the girls. (All three were good looking women), and are on the floor with them for a bit when two of them begin making out. It was quite the show. At this point its 3;30 am, and we invite the girls to join us at the cosmo for a little gambling and a nightcap. We get to Cosmo at 4, and the bride is trying to be good and get her friends back to their hotel. Our other friend finally joins us and is doing great at keeping the bride in good spirits. We hit the high limit room, play for a bit, order coconut waters and fijis, and tell the girls they can crash with us if they want. 1 is in, the other feels guilty about leaving the bride, so then a bunch of chick drama ensues. Our crew says we have to go to the bathroom, and we go up to sleep for the night. Our one friend apparently texted the best looking girl, and she joined him for the night. Thats the end of day 1. Zero tables, zero cabanas and a great start.
