That same evening, Chris and I jumped a bus to Philadelphia, MS with 20 or so of his classmates. This was a casino trip departing right from the base. Seeing as the ride was almost two hours, we needed some way to amuse ourselves. Ever heard of the game, "Edward 40 Hands?"
Yes, you guessed it. This is John from Singapore, Bill and Chad with GIANT beer bottles duck taped to their hands. The rule is, you cannot remove the beer bottles until you have drank all of the beer, even if you have to go to the bathroom. Later in the evening, Bill took a little nap in the woods near the casino. I am sure you can imagine why.
Our destination was the, "Golden Moon Casino." This is a full service casino, unlike the racinos of Maine. Chris was able to play Blackjack and I was able to make a few bucks on the slot machines. We escaped making just enough money to pay for dinner and our other expenses from the evening. Not a bad night! I was able to sit and watch a great Jazz Band named, Michael Anthony and the Groove while Chris played.

Wait, the hands are taped together? Oh my. I really am closer to 1/2 of a century old than 1/4!
Was it a good type of beer at least?
