I was using the business computer for e-mail around midnight in empty Tuscany tower lobby. my neighbor says “It’s Trump!” - The Donald walks by ten feet away with small entourage going up the elevators. What the ? Turns out he gave a speech Thurs morning at The Nugget in Sparks. I guess he didn’t want to stay in a suite at the Nugget. Wild.

Flew home on the last flight out of Reno (8PM!) Just after I hit a quad for $250 on the terrible paytable $1 DDB at the airport, the attendant went along and turned off all the machines in the terminal.
Other notes: I did a VIP slot tournament at Pepps. Won $100 freeplay & a bottle of wine. I scored $1500 freeplay at pepps, about $200 at Silver. I spent $700 comps at Pepps at restaurants and gift shop. But I earned over $800 during my play there. Similar story at Silver on comps, earned and spent about $500 in comps. I didn’t use the cool option to convert comps into freeplay at Silver, but I also spent my $125 “resort credit” there.
