Las Vegas
Only in Vegas ... only in Vegas ...
Had a dinner/gambling date at the Bellagio. Had a wonderful evening. After dinner and before we went upstairs for "dessert", we went and played some craps. I'm not much into gambling, but I do enjoy "trying" to be my dates lucky charm. 
In about a half hours time, he was up $4,000. Was on a great run ... then came the offer. He said he was going to take us to a roulette wheel, and he wanted me to pick red or black. If we won he would split the profit with me, so I suddenly had 4 grand on the line, lol. I would never gamble with 400 never mind 4 grand!
I bet your thinking this little story is going to have a happy ending.
Nope ...
I picked red.
The Bellagio chose black.
Oh well ...
Did not ruin a delightful evening however, and certainly one that I will remember for a while!

And I'm very anti-drug ... so was not the latter either.
He was very casual about the whole thing actually. Did not even faze him when it came up black. And really even at the time, it did not faze me much. It was when I was driving home that it hit me, hehe.
Que sara.
Afterwards he shared some of his past stories with me. Sounded like dropping 4k was minor for him.
