WOV SPRING FLING May 11 2019-- PLANNING THREAD

Quote: beachbumbabs

Note to GWAE. That's 20, plus I would guess 6-10 more to come. As a previous organizer, I would suggest you try to set up a party room or other restaurant reservation now, then we can finalize a head count with them about a week before or whatever they need.

Thanks BBB for making the first post so organized.

We are a yes to escape room.

What is poker run?

ETA how did you get that list. I swear I went through the other thread and didn't see some of these names.

As to dinner for Saturday night. Let's hear some suggestions? I think in the past it was burger places. I like the idea of something in that price range. Would prefer not to go to a high end place.

A lot of people are planning mob museum. Should we find a place in downtown? Strip? Or off strip?

I think we should keep the dinner location private as we did last year, discussed by PM.

I’m in for the mob museum, ideally on Saturday afternoon? I’m in for the escape room if it’s on Friday? Hike, sorry Mike but hell no lol. Poker run? Do you mean poker game after dinner on Saturday? If so then yes to that too!

If I come would my grandkids be able to do the escape room?

Thats something they might like

FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS

Probably not. They are 40 or 50 dollars and you can only get 10 people or so. I think we had 7 which included wizard and some other forum regulars and we failed miserably. Did you say they are 10? Cant imagine a 10 year old figuring it out

8 and 13

I would normally agree with you except my kids know how to operate and do so much I cant figure out these days at least technology wise

My 13 year old just toured South Korea and learned a good chunk of the language- enough to correspond somewhat rudimentarily so who knows

There are no age restrictions for most. Other than under 13 must be accompanied by an adult. Escape rooms seem to work best in groups of 5-8 people. There are alot of multi room escape facilities in Vegas. Sounds like DarkOx might have enough people in his group to get their own room. If not, it sounds like their could possibly be enough people for multi rooms anyhow.
Maybe they'll even have some multi-card puzzles.😀

Multi-carding puzzles?

Hell, the whole family will ace that one

True story - brought family to dinner at casino when my grandson was 6

Server asks if I wish to use my points on card

I reply no I dont have enough

My 6 year old replies, "But Grandpa, you have dozens of cards. Why dont you use one of the ones those people give you?"

I think my face turned redder than the strawberries on my plate. (Luckily the server didnt hear him. His voice was still low enough but the family heard him all too clearly)

EDIT: maybe I should delete this post. I dont want to be accused of hijacking. Maxpen just got me reminiscing

Dont comment directly anyone please

EDIT EDIT: If a mod says delete it I will
