Email from Harrahs :)

I quite liked opening this email tonight. I even got my first choice for my starting Day.

Oh, and I also like his prediction down at the end. I'm sure he added that just for me.

I really hope some of you can make it out there for this, whether it be to play, to rail, to party, or some combination of the three!

Man I would do anything to get that e-mail.

*sigh*

Not this year. Drink a Tanqueray and Tonic for me.

My advice: Start by turning 21.

Or just send me 50 bucks and I'll forward it to you.

LMAO

You know I'll be there. Soon we should start a sticky thread with a count of just how deep the TP contingent will be.

I would love to join you guys for a day or two just for kicks, but I'll basically have to win my airfare etc.

I'm pretty sure I'll be there, probably doing a Wed or Thurs to Monday type thing. When do you arrive?

BrianSwa · #9 05-15-06, 02:49 PM

I might come up for a day or 2 not sure.

I'm planning on getting there on Wednesday, I think... assuming I do the press pass thing again this year, I want to play in the Media/Celeb event for the third straight year.

From Elvis to Norm MacDonald to Shannon Elizabeth, the seat next to me has gotten better and better. I can't wait to see who the lucky celeb is this year!

I just realized that James Woods was also in the seat to my immediate left when I played with him. What is the deal with that exact seat???

How exactly are you Media??

Reel Deal · #12 05-16-06, 11:58 AM

You should check out his website:

PShabi · #13 05-16-06, 12:03 PM

Why do you assume he's not celeb?

eejit101 · #14 05-16-06, 01:20 PM

Yeah, i never actually ever looked at that

But my way of thinking was media = new york times, USA today type people, ESPN commentators, that kind of thing

2Tone · #15 05-16-06, 02:04 PM

Sounds like press credentials might be harder to come by this year.

Talking Poker · #16 05-16-06, 02:12 PM

This doesn't surprise me. Being that I've been approved for the past two years and know the who do (did) the approving... hopefully I'll get approved again. Based on their guidelines, I'd say that I'm a borderline decision that could go either way.
