Flights all good both ways on Southwest from Indianapolis.
Three of us arrived Harry Reid at 7am on Saturday, and Ubered to the Golden Gate on Fremont. We hoped, but didn't expect to be able to check into any of our 7 rooms..............but the most important was the penthouse suite. None were available. Robert at the Golden Gate did a great job of calling me as rooms became available. Robert did a great job and I just sent Golden Gate management a note telling them so.
Day one for me was a bender, losing $400 on blackjack early and closing that loss to $200 at night's end. We watched Purdue get crushed by Wisonsin (a $44 loser for me), which was a bummer.
Day two for me, but not for others, was alcohol free. I was crushed from night one.
Day three was again a serous bender. I eliminated my losses and was up for the trip by $400 at one point, but ended up down $200 at trips end. Other than my $44 Purdue bet, all gambling for me was blackjack.
Having a Penthouse suite, we spend little money on food and drink. We have a California mule, so our room was stocked with Italian sausages, brats, and dogs, so we don't eat out much. The Golden Gate suite has a patio with a nice full sized grill, plus our mule brings a hot dog steamer. I believe that the only food that I ate outside of the suite was 4 breakfasts, and our Carson Kitchen dinner
We did have an outstanding dinner AGAIN at Carson Kitchen. Every time the food and service is great. Two drinks a guy, I'm guessing, and lots and lots of small plates for $55 per person after tax and tip. Love this place.
