Day trips make for a long day but it’s very hard to complain to a spouse or significant other about being tired because you just had an incredibly fun day with your buddies betting on anything that moved

Most would agree that the best way to wager on sports (when your schedule allows for it) is a trip to Las Vegas

Since it’s the only state in the nation that actually allows for pure sports betting (not that the Delaware cards etc aren’t real gambling) because it’s hard enough to win one bet when you’re playing against the point spread

Traveling to Las Vegas is different than any other destination

If you’ve ever been on a plane leaving the East Coast on a Friday heading to McCarran International then you know exactly what it’s like

Groups of ladies wearing some type of hey were all together on a bachelorette party

Guys that may or may not be shut off by the flight attendants because the boarded over the limit

The slot machines in the Vegas airport can instantly get you in the mood and once you arrive at the Westgate Las Vegas (especially when it’s pool season) you’re in for an extended period of not really knowing what time (or even what day) it is

A Vegas weekend takes a little scheduling, is a bit more expensive and the exhaustion stays with you for a little longer than a day trip to TJ does

But the stories that you’ll have for years make it (almost) always worth it

Then of course there’s your smart phone

Sports Betting in the age of technology is much easier and definitely involves a different level of self control

Especially if you’re drinking

You don’t need to leave your seat at Cali Comfort if you want to get some action on the 2nd Half of a TV game

That’s the biggest part of the problem with the current Sports Betting legal environment

Every penny of every bet you make sitting in front of that brisket sandwich Shawn’s team at Cali Comfort puts out with the incredible Cole Slaw is leaving the USA for other world economies not run by old white guys

On a Friday or Saturday night when you’re winding down from a day doing whatever was on your things to do list

Hanging at a local joint like Cali Comfort BBQ sure is a great time

There’s just something about waiting for the line to shrink before you leave your seat to cash that makes Sports Betting where it actually is legal the best
