Day 4 Deep Fried Oreo's?



We stayed up a little later on day 3 so we slept in a little bit on day 4.  When I woke up I decided this would be a good day to hit the buffet at the Mirage.  My friend agreed.  We were a little slow getting ready.  Both of us were getting low on funds and were not in a great big hurry to go spend more. 

On the way, we were going to go check my keno ticket from the night before.  As I walked up to the window I was hoping deep down that my luck had changed.  The cashier read the ticket and says, "That's a good one."  a feeling of hope ran through me.  Then I saw on the screen that I had hit for 309.00.  Nice.  I had hit 7 out of 9 numbers on 1 game.

We bought another 8 spot ticket and went to lunch feeling a lot better.  At the buffet we ate way too much.  I didn't try anything that wasn't great.  I also had a few beers.  By the time I finished I had gone through 7 plates or bowls of food.  It was like I hadn't eaten the whole trip.  I wasn't miserable, but I was full.  I probably didn't need to eat that much, but I didn't even try a lot of things they had out.  For the price, I vote this the best buffet I have ever been to.

While we were eating one of my teeth or jaw started hurting. 

We had to go back to the room to take a nap afterwards.  The left side of my face was in major pain when we got back to the room.  I took some ibuprofen and laid down.  We lounged around until it was time to go pick up our tickets for Jubilee.  I wasn't sure what I was going to think of the show.  I figured it would be pretty good and kind of Nostalgic to see a showgirl Vegas show.  I took some Tylenol this time and we headed out.

We got our tickets and played around min betting slots until the show was ready to start.  I actually won a little bit. 

The show was outstanding!  It started out pretty basic and got better and better.  I had been to some small time productions and plays, but this was professional.  Constant stage changes, awesome performers, topless girls.  It was way more than I could have ever anticipated.  The best part was we had gotten the show passes free with our free room.

When we walked out of the show my buddy looked at me.  His eyes got big and he said, "WHOA!"  He said the whole side of my face was swollen.  The ibuprofen and Tylenol worked a little to alleviate some of the pain, so I thought I was in the clear.  I went into the bathroom and looked in the mirror.  It looked like I had taken a right hook from Mike Tyson.

On the walk back to the Quad, my face started hurting again.  It felt like my jaw was broken, or a tooth was shattered.  It was bad.  I stopped and bought some Advil to take. 

I didn't feel up to sitting on a bus to get to Freemont Street while I was in that much pain.  Sorry Anger!  Next trip fried oreo's will be on the list for 1st night quest. 

Back to the room to lay down and wait for the painkillers to kick back in.  It was a rough night.  I tried cold rags, warm rags, more Tylenol, more ibuprofen.  I couldn't kick the pain.

  2. Ha - angerisagift is probably crying now. The man just can't live through anyone to get his fried dessert fix!

    I have never tried the Mirage buffet as I rarely spend much time in that casino. Best buffets imo are the revamped Caesars Palace Bacchanal Buffet and the Wicked Spoon buffet in the Cosmo. They certainly are not cheap, though.

    1. I really liked the Wynn's buffet. It was a little higher priced. Everything I tried at the Mirage was top notch. I had originally ate there because they have crab legs on the buffet all day + they are hot.
