I got harassed by this one security guard.

It is generally agreed I look about 15 or 16. but I really am 22. At the Hilton you can go to security, show them your ID, and get a bracelet so that you don't have to keep whipping out your ID. I don't even drink or gamble very much, but you have to have an ID just to stand near the bar or on the casino floor.

Well this one security guard still wanted to see my ID. Then he spent 5 minutes scrutinizing it. He was being a total jerk, but finally let me go.

I saw him glaring at me the whole next night. :dazed:

when we first got there on thursday night at about 11:30 there were about 20 people outside the bowling alley. they were pushing eachother around and talking crap and eventually got into a fight. I thought it was pretty funny they were fighting streight armed and swinging side to side. Good stuff

I got back to my room after dinner and there was a message on my phone saying my wallet was in the security office! i didn't even realize it was gone!!! I went to retrieve it and sure enough, all the money and IDs and cards were still there.

I :heart: vaulters. It must have been a fellow vaulter who turned it in, because they are all amazing, honest, and trustworthy.

Must not have been Saraf then, just kidding Adam! I don't think that there was a vaulter there that I couldn't trust.

I was in the elevator and Stacey Dragila walks in with me. We talk a little bit and then get off on the same floor. We start walking and soon do i realize that her room is right across from mine...like 5 feet away. Pretty awesome.

I was drunk on an elevator heading back to my room after the Elite competition and Tim Mack was in there with some girl :o , I didn't want to say "hey! you're Tim Mack!!" or anything because my words would have been slurred and I had enough trouble trying to stand up and get back to my room in one piece. So after Tim and the chick left I turned to this one guy behind me who had a Reno PV Summit shirt on and I asked him if that was Tim Mack and he said yeah so that's when I knew I wasn't drunk enough because I recognized who Tim Mack was. I didn't drink anymore after that though because I had to jump at 10:45am the next day.

I was in the elevator with Keenan King! Also, me and my friends had 3 or so shakes from Johnny Rockets.

Three shakes aren't that interesting other than the fact they were.....................STRAYBERRY OREO SHAKES! They are so good. A lot of people think they are gross, but I tell people to have one, and usually go and have one when they do! :yes:
