skybytch 259 #1 August 24, 2002 (continuing a discussion we had in the Pub awhile back...) There's a DZ in Jean that we can jump at (if we want to ), the tunnel, roller coasters, lots of cool stuff to gawk at and of course, gambling and partying. Who's up for it? Sept. 14-15 or 21-22 or anytime after Nov. 1st work for me. What dates work for you? Any favorite hotels/casinos/attractions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomAiello 26 #7 August 24, 2002 If y'all do it after Nov 1, I'll come out. Vegas is one of my favorite playgrounds. I might even make a skydive or three.-- Tom Aiello [email protected] SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cornholio 0 #11 August 24, 2002 Awwww... I'll be in Vegas the weekend after the Perris trip - September 7-10th. I wasn't planning on jumping, but if anyone familiar is going to be out there, I might just make other arrangements. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool! bellyflier on the dz.com hybrid record jump Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtval 0 #13 August 24, 2002 ok If anyone is going to Vegas. let me know. haha That is where im calling home as of sept 03!! Ill jump anytime!My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shotgun 1 #14 August 24, 2002 I wanna go!!! If it's in September I probably can't go cause I'll still be taking care of the Gimp... But I could probably go in November sometime... Hell, the Gimp might even be able to go by November! I've been wanting to try out that dz at Jean - it's been a long time since I've jumped out of a Cessna! And it's close to that roller coaster at Buffalo Bill's - I've always wanted to ride that thing too, though it looks more dangerous than skydiving! ;-) I have a coupon for a free night at the Tropicanna, but I don't think we could all stay in one room... They do at least have mirrors on the ceilings though ;-) The Stratosphere has pretty cheap rooms, and I've had good luck on the slot machines there - and the ride at the top is pretty sweet - not to mention the really HIGH view...

Deleted 0 #15 August 24, 2002 Have fun. I hope you will, though a few Vegas residents I know drive to Perris and Elsinore to jump, saying Jean has turned into a tandem mill too. I wouldn't know, as I personally have not been there. Check out http://www.lvgravityzone.com/fun.shtml for any more info you might want. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybytch 259 #17 August 24, 2002 Okay, so it looks like November is best for most people. How about Nov 9-10 then? Someone pick a hotel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shotgun 1 #21 August 25, 2002 Buffalo Bills's Hotel looks like fun... though it's not actually in Vegas... But it has several cool-looking rides and reasonably priced rooms - and alcohol and gambling - what more could you ask for? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zennie 0 #23 August 25, 2002 QuoteHow about Nov 9-10 then? I'm in. Given that I don't have a certain someone telling me where I can & can't go for vacation. QuoteSomeone pick a hotel. I personally like the Mirage, but that's prolly too pricey for most folks. Bally's is on the strip and might be a little more reasonably priced. Tom would probably like the Stratosphere. One extracurricular activity that might be fun is the bungee jumping platform just outside Circus Circus. I've done it before and it's a blast. Getting a bunch of skydivers there would be fun. I also think we need to get a big 'ol herd of us to mosey on down to Mikey Hawkes place with our rigs and tell him we all want to do some fun jumps. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
