3. You all promised no speedos, right?
1. Bring over the briefcase full of watches....we will gawk over, we promise!!

2. Where it is? I'll give you a subtle hint...look at the title of this thread

3. Speedos is a tradition....especially if it's your first time....rookies must wear speedos and Gerardo will judge the competition....that's the highlight of his trip

Only leopard speedos. But you have to wear black socks and oxfords with them.

Well, it seems I'm in luck, then. All I need now is a pair of black socks.

Update:

Excellent News From Wynn Hotel and Encore for attending members of the GTG. See what happens when everyone behaves themselves ?
You’re well received and are given special treatment

I know most of the attendees fly in though 👍





Have fun 😀


Watch the Dominos start to fall as monkey see monkey do
