Well, after tonight, that makes a total of two rodeos I've been to. The first was the Calgary Stampede a good five or six years ago. The latest was the NFR at the Thomas & Mack Center here in Vegas where I am for the annual company Christmas Party. After standing around the concourse for a while (our tickets weren't the best), we went inside when they started the bull riding and found some seats that were vacated by the rightful owner.
We watched a few bulls and then took off two bulls before the end of the show. However, once we got outside to catch a cab, the line was VERY long. Like 30-45 minutes long. So we decided to walk to the corner (took about 5 minutes max) and hail a cab. Maybe not the most "kosher" thing to do, but we got an eccentric cabbie who kept us entertained the whole way, and we got back a good half hour before the other half of the group who stayed in the line (in fact, they probably aren't back yet as I write this post).
Off to Tao in about an hour and tomorrow we have the company dinner. Hopefully I won't lose too much this weekend. Any money I come home with goes towards the final part of my speaker purchase.
