Anyone else out here in Vegas for the first round of the tourney? Group of us had been going every year for 8 years. Then we got older, busy with kids, online betting came along, TV internet technology got wayyy better, and uber cab...so I built the experience in my basement. All four games on, three different screens, dedicated TV for horse racing. Plus all the side action a man can handle. I launched the Welch Sports Book last year and it was a blast!!! With 6 guys @ an average of $600 airfare/hotel that's $3,600 more we have to wager on the games and ponies. I will post some pics of the room up and running for the 2017 Tourney later this week. My liver already hurts just thinking about it!

Did a 2 team parlay of Syracuse and Clemson to get our feet wet while we golf tomorrow. Hope to catch a little bit of the games when we get back from golf. The fun begins boys!

Half cheering one one and half cheering the other way! It's as addicting as coke! Nothing like it anywhere!

We met some guys from Wisconsin 30 years ago here at the stardust sports book and now meet them out here every year. All but one is here this year again. The one that isn't here today has a boy that plays on the Wake forest team playing tonight! We are extremely happy for him. It is going to be fun!

Ok smart guys. Why is Wichita st a ten seed? Something is fucked up. My guess is it's due to them being in a small conference. They also don't have the two superstars that they had the last couple of yrs, but Marshal has a history of doing well in the tournament and his teams are always tough. I think it is a bad seeding. I hope they go far!
