Thackerville, OK – Oct. 12, 2025
Stop #17
Listen, I have not had any alcohol or anything for at least, well, since July for my friend Jennifer’s 50th birthday. Funny story about that. I went to a random bar that I have never been to, but Jennifer goes to all the time, and who is at the table next to us? Her ex-husband. Divorced for like 15 years or something? Never have run into one another, and here we are sitting next to him. I noticed right away, and then we bounced.
Anyway, this was the last time I had anything to drink. Prior to that, it had been months. This body cannot handle it anymore. Plus, I am not a drink-to-relax type of person. I am Generation X; there is only one reason to drink, and that is to partyyyyyy! So what better place to have some drinks than Winstar Casino and leave a millionaire? Well, one of those things definitely happened. I had some Coronas, and yes, some Jagerbombs (I told you I am Gen X) and took off to win my money. Wellllll… the money went fast, this place was insane, and after two shots, I was done. I just kept telling girls how much I loved their boots. When compliments to random people begin, I must make my exit.
One cool thing that happened is when we checked in, they really were pushing the players club card. Of course, I am against those because when you play with them, they track you, and you never win (kidding)… but they convinced me. Also, I got a free stay in the RV, so amazing. They have a tram from the RV park to the casino and back. It runs 24 hours. Also, this casino is a mile long. It was considered the largest casino in the world until a Dubai casino opened. But just think, the two largest casinos in the world exist in Dubai and Thackerville.
On our way out and back on the tram, we were sitting next to this older couple. I happened to take a cute pic of them earlier, so I shared it with them on my way home. Every guy on the tram was ex-military, and they had plenty to say about the government shutdown. I can’t begin to understand what is happening right now, so I sat silent and thought about what I could eat in the RV. The answer? Pierogies. Paul had bought some somewhere, and they were Philly cheesesteak. I made a little A1 mayonnaise sauce, and I went to sleep.
Tomorrow: Home
