Professional Sportsbetting

[redietz]

As for being a professional sport bettor back in the day, I assume Las Vegas was the place to be. And since you spend so much time here anyways just out of curiosity why wouldn't you just have a place here or live here permanently? Even though you're a specialist there has to be other obvious in the face good opportunities available on other sports frequently enough to get value out of being here full-time. I wasn't a professional sports bettor and just by chance I would see good situations. I can only imagine if somebody was focused on that type of thing what they could have found.

Not to echo Mr. Singer but living in LV full-time has its drawbacks. Las Vegas was not exactly the cultural center of the universe in the 80's and '90s.

My wife was employed by the Army as an archaeologist and demographer while she earned a double doctorate from Penn State. Not many "material resource director" positions in Las Vegas.

Ahh, I get it, so she made all the money while you jacked around with a gambling addiction pretending you had a legit skill. I know, it's hard to feel like man when your wife's making all the money, but you can always try to convince others.
It looks like you and Rob have something in common after all. Okay don't go getting your panties all up in a Bunch I'm just f****** with you two.

From what I understand you lived in the same area for a long time? Is that the epicenter of culture?

Yeah, that makes perfect sense. I had a severe gambling addiction that led to 85% of my annual betting volume being college football and leaving town to be home on Thanksgiving each year. Sounds about right.

Not sure this is the epicenter of culture. Confederate flags abound, and nobody cares if one fills a wiseass's ass with buckshot if they annoy you. You, of course, are always welcome to visit. Asheville, down the road, is considered one of the top 50 towns in which to live in many listings.
