Destination: Shreveport - BOOMTOWN.
Friends: Rhonda, Cindy, Edie, Kelly, Sharon, Andrea and Me (the lucky 7).
Departure: Wednesday 12:30
Arrival: Wednesday 5:30 (Why five hours on the road? 7 women who need to eat, take bathroom breaks, stop for drinks and no photo opportunities went unnoticed).
So, five hours after we left Crandall, we arrived at our hotel - Boomtown. (Shout out to Andrea for the free room.) After blowing up air mattresses, asking for plenty more towels and toiletries, primping and getting settled in we made our way down to the casino.
The problem we found was that they only had two $5 blackjack tables with no empty seats. Most of us spent a lot of time hanging around and not losing any money . We did happen to hear of a former Greenbay Packer quarterback/ super bowl champion in da house. So, I stalked him and at the buffet (one of the hilights of the trip) we drug him over to our table and made him pose with us. I googled him on my phone and he wasn't kidding - he was a supastar. If only he would have gone home to get his superbowl ring. We were dying to see it.
Most of us were out of money by midnight and in the room laughing the rest of the night. We laughed all the way there, all over the casino, all through dinner and all the way home. Even if I lost all my money, it was an awesome girls trip. I lost less there than I would have if I was out shopping.
Thanks for the memories.
