Las Vegas Entertainment and
Business Meetings
by:
Terje Brooks Ellingsen
When arriving in one of the most exciting
cities on the planet, Las Vegas, Nevada, I
could not help but think about how interesting
my Company’s meetings would be. I knew it was
a time for serious decisions and keeping a
focused mind, the meetings were a great
success and it was now time to relax and enjoy
my environment of bright lights and all night
Las Vegas entertainment.
My first encounter in my luxurious hotel’s
casino was the sound of a woman behind the
roulette wheels screaming for joy after
hitting a jackpot of 12,225.00 dollars on a
slot machine that took quarters and the crowd
that had gathered around her seemed to be just
as happy for her as she was for herself.
That's entertainment!
Myself, well, I have always liked blackjack
gambling as well as poker, roulette and craps
and sought out a black jack table where I
could try my hand at it. The Vegas hotels are
always full of gamblers. Every gambler around
me seemed eager to part with their gambling
money and their wagering spirits were high and
I fell right in with them and placed my bet.
Lost my first two hands but as I visioned,
after thirty minutes and two dealers into my
evening, I left the table 375.00 dollars
ahead. That's entertainment!
A great accomplishment for an amateur
casino gambler such as my myself.
