Question of the Day - 05 July 2018

Why did you make this so hard?

My first thought was with Doyle Brunson, Benny Binion along with Slim, the greek and all the old guys for a day of talking about the original days of underground poker.

Then you had to bring George Burns up, one of the all time greatest comics in all of recorded history. Wow!

I did not even think it could get any better until you brought up the original rat pack.  What I would give to spend a night drinking with those guys.

If so, there's one person who could reasonably be called a (former) Vegas celebrity, and I would like to hang out with the say, 1995 version of him just to have the opportunity to slip some poison in his drink. You can probably guess who I'm talking about.

I’m almost certain hanging out with him wouldnt be boring.

I can't, and I'm curious. Who?

Frank Sinatra he was the swinger. Very generous to the everyman and help intergrate Las Vegas.

For me, being stranded on a desert island with Liberace and Wayne Newton would constitute a special kind of hell.

A couple of omissions. George Carlin and Sam Kinison. Glad Anthony Curtis was listed too as he's the man. Very interesting subject and thanks for the memories.....
