First of all, I hope that you all had a Merry Christmas and I wish you a joyous and prosperous (and covid-free) New Year! I lost my grandfather on Christmas Eve a while back and my father on Christmas Day in 2005, so this time of year is not the best for my family. The reason why I brought this up was that Las Vegas was my father's favourite place in the whole wide world, and from 2006 to 2019, my brother and I took my mother there for Christmas so we could remember him....

We were not able to go the last two years because of Covid, and now with my mother in a Personal Care Home, that's not going to happen anymore.... So even though I am fond of the City of Las Vegas, that can't be said about their hockey team. Today's GDT theme is...

F**K VEGAS!

Ever since the Vegas Golden Showers became the 31st franchise in the NHL, people have been questioning why in the hell would they put a hockey team there....

Oh right, I forgot about that...Not only that, but they became the most successful expansion franchise in NHL history...

F**K VEGAS!

By wheeling and dealing at the expansion draft, not only did the Golden Showers get a bunch of decent players, they also hauled in a huge amount of draft picks to use as trade bait to get even better players...

F**K VEGAS!

While we can't prove it, as Winnipeg Jets fans, we all know too well what interference they have done to stalling our own team's chances and our playoff hopes....Brassard...Stone...Stastny...

F**K VEGAS!

I don't think anyone on the HFJets board would say otherwise!

I have been a visitor to Las Vegas for quite some time now, traveling to Sin City at least twice a year, so I've seen a lot of weird stuff that makes me say...

F**K VEGAS!

Just remember...

One of the strangest things I have ever seen at a casino, happened at the Green Valley Ranch when we entered. We were walking from the elevator to the casino floor when I spotted this...

You can use your own imagination, but really, a cucumber? You can't make this stuff up...

WTF VEGAS?

I mean, this casino is in a ritzy part of town, so this was not to be expected....

On another occasion when we were heading back to the car from our hotel room, we spotted this cat trying to hot wire our vehicle! And I thought Winnipeg was bad for stolen cars...

F**K VEGAS!

And yet, still another time when we were stuck in traffic trying to get to the airport, we saw something that we had never seen before or since....an actual Arizona Coyotes fan :sarcasm:

WTF VEGAS?

It was like seeing the Loch Ness Monster or Sasquatch, you can tell the story over and over again about what you saw, but nobody believes you...

Another time we were there, our hotel room was invaded by bugs...

F**K VEGAS!

Well, at least they weren't bed bugs....

While visiting Red Rock Casino out in Summerlin, I stopped in at the Vegas Golden Showers' practice facility. I arrived in all of my Winnipeg Jets ensemble and no one even questioned, taunted, noticed or told me to leave. When I sat down and watched the practice, I talked to some of the people that were present. I asked them if they were big fans of their hockey team, and they told me they were only there to get out of the heat...."It was nice and cool inside," they said...

F**KIN' PHONY VEGAS FANS...

As I said, I also have good memories of Las Vegas. I'm not much of a gambler, but I was playing nickel video poker for a while, but I got bored, so I switched to quarters. No sooner did I change, this happened....

F**K YEAH VEGAS!

After so many postponed games, it's nice to have the Jets back and playing, even if it is against the Golden Showers...

F**K VEGAS!

I don't know who is in the lineup, who is still in COVID protocol, or if the game will even be played? All I know is...

F**K VEGAS!

oh, and Go Jets Go! :hockey:

Does Brossoit get the start for Vegas tomorrow? I hate Vegas, but would like to see him do good at least. Maybe make it a 0-0 goes to a shootout type. And then after it can be just like in that Simpsons episode "tie game, what the hell?" "Let's tear this place apartttttttt"

Thanks for the GDT @macmaroon !

F*ck Vegas has earned my enmity with how they conducted themselves in the 2018 WCF.

First, the NHL forced us to start the series after 1 day of rest.

Then, F*ck Vegas wouldn't turn the lights on in the arena when it was time for our practice.

F*uck Vegas put plastic Jets cakes in their urinals.

F*ck Vegas staff took away Jets fans flags.

I expect the Jets to start slow due to not playing in 2 weeks, but, I hope they win!

By the time I was 22 I thought the strip club was a waste of money, so I said I’d never go back. The first time I visited Vegas (2004) I was 24 and I budgeted $2g’s for my 2 nights there for entertainment and food. The first place my cousin wanted to visit was the Spearmint Rhino, I blew my money within the first 3 hours :shakehead

Also, F—k Vegas.

I went there with a bunch of buddies and girls kept coming up to me trying to get me to go for private dances. I politely informed them that I was gay and not at all interested, and then I proceeded to get about 5 impromptu, free forced lap dances at our table. My buddies were pissed :laugh:
