Guest IDrinkRatsMilk Report post Posted January 7, 2003 I hardly ever do any traditional gambling activities, but I make wagers with friends about almost everything. From what color the next car that comes down the street will be, to which celebrities will die first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest oldschoolwrestling Report post Posted January 7, 2003 Anything and everything. When I go to Reno/Tahoe/Vegas I bet on the horses until they stop running, then I bet on the dogs. I go to county fairs to bet on horses and recently have been researching online gambling sites. I love to have poker games, I have a pool table and have money tournaments, play dice, pitch quarters, etc..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest CED Ordonez Report post Posted January 7, 2003 I frequently play the state lottery and if I go to Reno or an Indian casino, I'm almost always playing blackjack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted January 7, 2003 Man, another Dumb and Dumber quote! Lloyd:"I bet you 20 bucks I can get ya gambling before the end of the day." Harry:"No way." Lloyd:"I'll give you 3 to 1 odds..." Harry:"Nope." Lloyd:"5 to 1?" Harry:"Nope." Lloyd:"10 to 1?" Harry:"You're On!" Lloyd:"I'm gonna get ya! I don't know how, but I'm gonna get ya!" Personally, I do the instant scratch offs, and I sometimes play bingo with the old people down at the Fire Dept. when it was a slow tuesday night (don't laugh, there are big money CASH jackpots, and I've won as much as $50 for only a $10 entrance fee. I would start betting on football, but Im affraid I'd end up losing too much money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kingpk Report post Posted January 8, 2003 I'm in a football pool (this week's is worth +$1000) and I buy scratch tickets here and there. I'd love to go to Vegas next year after I turn 21 in October. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dames 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2003 I'm dying to go to a casino to play Poker. I place regular bets with my friend Keith all the time....I need to win a big one cuz I owe him money. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Zack Malibu Report post Posted January 8, 2003 I buy the occasional Powerball ticket or scratch ticket. The track is a block away from my college, but I haven't been in quite some time. There are also two casinos just over the Conneticutt border (Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun), but I've only been there for dinner and for shows so far. I used to do football pools in high school, as well as for college basketball. Nowadays, I'd rather save what money I have than potentially waste it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dames 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2003 Those instant scratches are such ripoffs...but if I were to choose just ONE to win, Win for Life would be it. I'd be comfy for the rest of my life, still have a career and no one would be the wiser... Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Will Scarlet Report post Posted January 8, 2003 I used to gamble on scratch off tickets, but lately I have not been into gambling. I actually have a casino where I live, and, when I went there once it was most boring experience of my life. Of course, maybe it was not a bright idea to go with my mother who was set on losing the money she had won because she was too lazy to turn her chips in for cash. So, isntead of spending maybe minutes waiting in line and picking up $13 or so, we instead spent about 45 minutes trying to lose it because my mother is strange.

Guest Mole Report post Posted January 8, 2003 I used to play cee-lo during high school. I used to either win a lot or lose a lot. At the end, I lost a lot of money, so I won't ever play again. I will never step foot into an actual casino. Foxwoods 'Resort' and Casino is right down the road from me, and the traffic has ruined my town. If you are either driving on 95 South or North you will be getting off in my town, and causing lots of traffic. That includes people from any state in New England, people coming from NYC or Long Island you'll get off in my town, North Stonington. Basically, if you are from ANYWHERE and want to go to Foxwoods, you will be driving through my town and causing lots of traffic. Lots of accidents happen, a few robberies, littering, people pissing on people's property, and wasting my town's money. So I hate gambling, because of the damn Indians who own Foxwoods. I will never step foot in a casino and waste my money. However, I will buy a Powerball ticket when the jackpot is above $50 million. Mole Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kkktookmybabyaway Report post Posted January 8, 2003 Only w/ my life, never my money. With that being said, whenever there's an office pool for the $600 million Powerball jackpot, I flush my $5 down the toilet just like everyone else... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest EricMM Report post Posted January 8, 2003 No. I don't like to gamble for cash, because I'm always afraid I'll lose it. And I don't have that much to lose! One time Me 'n my friends were playing $10 pot poker and I got all anxious because I was down $5. When I got up to $11 I quit I didn't want to waste money!
