WordPress Tags March 26th, 2008 @ 8:47 pm PDT

Robbed at the Tropicana March 17th, 2008 @ 5:53 am PDT
My dad and I met in Vegas for a weekend of golfing after I visited the huge Con/Agg convention with Kelly and Bill. We stayed at The Tropicana, a classic Vegas hotel that has fallen on hard times. The place is just a wreck. Every night and every morning there was trash in the hallways, […]
