So 2012 was the last TR from me.... can't believe it's been so long...
Yes, I did go to Reno one time about a year ago and stayed at Harrah's and then we went again just before everything went to shit back in March. I remember very little of either of the trips other than we did get an Awful-Awful and joined the new One Club at "The Row" - ugh. Hate that name. Oh, and I did hit 4OAK with kicker on VP for about 1,000 bucks at Harrah's that trip - first decent hit in fucking years and years on VP. Also we were crushed to learn that CCN no longer has a hotel.
But we shall soldier on in this brave new world with ElDo becoming the big playa in the casino world and Harrah's original location no more.
Hopefully ElDo adopts Caesar's reservation system as the comp rooms I've been offered all require you to call to book. Not that big of a deal but sometimes I just want to click a few boxes and book..... however when I did call last week to book our room for TOMORROW NIGHT at ElDo (we've never stayed there surprisingly), the guy on the phone asked if we were Caesar's members. We are - at Platinum, no less, thanks to The Dog's military service. He immediately upgraded our bottom-tier One Club cards to Gold which was cool. I then went online and converted our Caesar reward credits or whatever they're called to ElDo comps.
Anyway, I am almost 99.96% positive that I will manage to bang out a trip report when we leave Reno on Thursday... it will probably involve a poll and maybe even have a picture or two! |

Glad to see you back on the board. I remember meeting you in LAS downtown @ CAL. You had or were moving to CA. |

Thanks for the TR. I'll take any TR right now.
We had planned our big group trip for early 2020, but due to a death in a family, we rescheduled for...you guessed it...March.
Sigh.
See ya all in Reno in 2021? |
