Who Is Staying With Us At The Flamingo?

Post by Greg Ambrosius » Mon Feb 15, 2010 2:23 am

We have a pretty big food and beverage minimum to hit at the Flamingo this year, so it's possible that we might host a nice Thursday night NCAA Viewing Party/Poker Tournament at the Flamingo for anyone coming into Las Vegas a day early. I'm just starting to put all of this together, so if we have anyone willing to run the poker event for us we'll get the plans rolling. This year we can do any level of minimum for poker, depending on what the participants want.



In order to have the right sized room for this and the correct amount of treats, I just need to know who is coming in on March 18th and who is staying at the Flamingo. It's important for us to keep track of all the rooms being used by our participants and then to work with the Flamingo staff on the food and beverage for this kickoff party. We'll see if we can get some TVs set up and have a nice kickoff with food, drinks and poker chips!! :D



Everything is still in the planning stages and this is only a go if enough people are coming in early and staying at the Flamingo, but let's get a show of hands today and get this rolling. Who is staying with us at the Flamingo and are you interested in getting together on Thursday for drinks? Anyone want to play poker??



Say the word and I'll start the planning. Thanks all.



Oh, and remember that we have a nice room block at the Flamingo that include the newly refurbished GO Rooms. Here's the info and please take advantage of this good offer if you're coming for the first weekend:



The Flamingo has a room block for NFBC members. Call 800-732-2111 and say you are with the National Fantasy Baseball Championship to get the special $109 per night room rate. It’s an awesome deal during March Madness.

Greg,



I'll be in Vegas Wednesday - Sunday (3/17-3/21) but I'm not participating in the Flamingo events. I'll be drafting in Chicago the following weekend. If you do hold an event can I crash the party?



BTW, there is an off chance I'll sign up for a $500 Double Play. It depends on whether my Louisville Cardinals make the tourney and what time they play.

I get in Friday for the first weekend.



For anyone else staying the week, Bluegreen Club is a condo-like building about 2 miles from Flamingo (with Strip shuttle) - good rates and full kitchen if you don't want to eat out 3 meals a day. Also fitness room and indoor pool. I'll be there for the 19th-25th. No casino, but if you need to get some work done between draft weekends ...

I will be at Flamingo 17-21. Will be hitting blackjack tables and wagering on NCAA. Plan to meet some of you folks Thursday for beer and basketball, but don't get into poker.

Greg - If you need to add together numbers, I'm staying at the Flamingo. But, just for Friday night and then flying out Saturday night, so I'm out for Poker.
