| - The Cal, where the waitresses know more about football than you!
Well that's not entirely true, I know my football, but these ladies are pretty damn good. You know you are in the right place when a gorgeous cocktail waitress, counts her tips, gets off her shift, puts on a sweater, whips out a sports page and sits down at the sports book.
My wife and I play mainly bartop video poker, and by habit I usually sit near a waitress station. You seem to learn more about a place when you are close to the waitresses and bartenders. There are three good bars to play video poker at The Cal. My favorite is downstairs, I believe it is called Dave's bar. They have some nice flat screen poker, and decent progressives that are tied to every royal on the machine.
That is where a lot of the football talk goes on.
One of the waitresses is the commissioner of her own fantasy league, and bets pretty heavy on games. Most of the others are at least in a pool, or bet a little. If football is on, they are always talking about it.
The last time we were in Vegas (pre-X-mas 2007) I knew I wanted to make a bet on the Patriots vs. Miami game, but I wasn't sure which way to go. I made my wife walk down to the Cal with me, so I could see what the waitresses thought. They assured me the Pats would hand Miami their collective asses, but I didn't listen. I took Miami on the money line, I should have listened. Strange that I didn't, by all past indicators when cleavage talks, I listen. (Some of the waitresses at the Cal sport some very impressive although tasteful cleavage.)
The bars have Margarita/Daiquiri machines with different flavors. Apparently, when you mix a strawberry, and regular daiquiri it is called a Lava Flow. We renamed it a "Four of a Kind." Since we had just hit a few. When I asked my wife, "what was the drink we renamed a four of a kind?" The bartender remembered us, and said, "Oh that was a Lava Flow." Pretty impressive really. Our previous trip was three months earlier.
I love the Cal, and plan on joining the Golden Arm Club their as soon as I can stay on a craps table that long. (The Cal is world renown for its craps tables)
Even though we have never been to Hawaii, my wife now roots for all things Hawaiian just because of the friends she has made gambling at The Cal.
We have never stayed at the hotel, but would consider it. We will surely be back soon. Cya soon Cal.
