Las Vegas
Entertainment and Business Meetings
by: Terje Brooks EllingsenWhen arriving
in one of the most exciting cities on the
planet, Las Vegas, Nevada, I could not help
but think about how interesting my Company’s
meetings would be. I knew it was a time for
serious decisions and keeping a focused
mind, the meetings were a great success and
it was now time to relax and enjoy my
environment of bright lights and all night
Las Vegas entertainment.
My first
encounter in my luxurious hotel’s casino was
the sound of a woman behind the roulette
wheels screaming for joy after hitting a
jackpot of 12,225.00 dollars on a slot
machine that took quarters and the crowd
that had gathered around her seemed to be
just as happy for her as she was for
herself. That's entertainment!
Myself, well,
I have always liked blackjack gambling as
well as poker, roulette and craps and sought
out a black jack table where I could try my
hand at it. The Vegas hotels are always full
of gamblers. Every gambler around me seemed
eager to part with their gambling money and
their wagering spirits were high and I fell
right in with them and placed my bet. Lost
my first two hands but as I visioned, after
thirty minutes and two dealers into my
evening, I left the table 375.00 dollars
ahead. That's entertainment!
A great
accomplishment for an amateur casino gambler
such as my myself.
