I received a letter from a casino host for the first time ever last week. I was like “ooh goody gum drops! She’s going give me a coupon for some massive free play!” I thought I was going to be comped at least $700. That’s because I put in around $2,000 worth of gameplay within the last few months. I broke nearly even, but I don’t think it showed up that way in my records, cuz I yank out my card before bonus rounds. But nooooooo! I drive one hour and fifteen minutes out of my way just to find out I’m only getting a $15 food comp next month. That’s just enough for a hot dog and some chips. The letter? I received that letter just because she wanted to introduce herself and for me to add any additional contact info on my file. No freeplay? I wont be fucking around at THIS casino much anymore. Ol’ cheap ass bastards!

What’s the longest distance you drove for something stupid?
