@Big Z and I were already talking about this on the way to the game tonight. I am seriously considering it. Especially if they get passed the quarterfinals. That will be the biggest test.

Well, lucky for me, I will be in Vegas those days for work!!!  Free trip for me to the game.  If I could only figure out how to expense the game tickets.

My wife has a work thing in Las Vegas the weekend after (in other words Final Four weekend) that we're already going to.  I'll be in the hotel watching basketball all day Saturday - LOL.

 

I'm trying to see if instead of leaving Friday, we can skip out Thursday and I might be able to see the Final.

 

Of course that is if we make it there.  That's still three steps away.

I’m booking my flight and hotel now!  Where are y'all staying?

Well if we lose early now we know who to blame, Jinxy.

Booked a hotel room, I’ll get my flight after we beat Okie State.

I figured I'd stay at the Orleans, even though its not as nice. I figure walking distance to the arena is fine. I can always get to the strip easily.

The good news is that flights are usually cheaper if you buy on a Tuesday, which happens to be gameday vs Okie St.

The Casino Royale on the Strip has, or at least they used to, twenty-five cents craps tables. Other than watching the Mean Green open a can of whoop-ass on our opponent, I can think of no better way to spend an evening in Las Vegas.

Should we make it past Wisconsin it's about 90% certain that I'll be there for the Final against UAB or Utah Valley.  We'll cut out early Thursday and hopefully make it to Vegas with around an hour to spare.  Like I said, we were going there on Friday anyway.

 

Unless some sort of emergency comes up, that's our plan.  I think my wife is even more excited about the plan than I am.  Of course that's probably just because she'll be taking off work after about half a day on Thursday, but still.

Can’t swing Tuesday but have flights out/back booked for Championship game.

[aztecskin]

I’ll be there monday night. Y’all let me know maybe we can meet up and have a drink 

[Danish43]

I am getting there on Monday leaving Friday. Spirit Airlines have some good prices and a round trip to Vegas and back to SA. The only thing they hit you on is baggage.

Posted earlier that I had bought the Spirit Airways Tuesday morning roundtrip returning Saturday morning for $108 total.

It's a great price if you can tolerate the chickens and goats wandering around the cabin.

When I was looking at it, what racks the costs up is the checked fees. Also, I wanted to be able to change the flight if they don't win Tuesday to come back earlier.

I just looked and it is $108 each way. Where are you seeing $108 total?

The Bride just told me it's $115 roundtrip, but you'll have to wait until Saturday morning to return. I've also reserved a van with unlimited mileage so I may do the tourist stuff, Hoover Dam, Weird Las Vegas, etc. on the non-hoops days.

I'm getting there late Monday night and coming back Wed morning. Unable to make the final due to work constraints, but I'll take the semis! Booked an airbnb near the Orleans. 

Flying on Frontier but I've learned how to carry everything in a personal bag so I'm covered.

My wife and I loved Hoover Dam.  Spent several hours there.

Big Willie if they don't win, man you can spend another night and see the sites. Remember "what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas".😆
