Penthouses – Not Just For High-Rollers Anymore April 23, 2007

Okay, this is pretty cool. It’s Monday night and game 7 of the Canucks/Dallas series, round 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. I was worried I was going to miss it but as luck has it, I’m currently sitting in front of a 52 inch plasma TV (with surround sound), one of 3, in my 2500 square foot penthouse suite here at the Venetian Hotel in Vegas. I’m not sure how this happened. Maybe it was the only room left. Maybe they just decided to treat me, but wow, it was definitely a nice surprise! Man, this place is big. Two full bedrooms, each with a huge washroom with jacuzzi tubs, a giant living room and dining room, baby grand piano, and even an exercise room. My washroom is connected to the exercise room by a huge walk-through double shower but the coolest thing is that it doubles as a steam room too. My own, private steam room! The hardest decision was which bedroom to use. The corner room or the one with the fireplace. Ha, all this for me? Thanks! Sure makes up for the trashy Best Western I had to stay at last night.

To my friends who said they couldn’t come down to hang out with me: SUCKS FOR YOU! Still, I wish you were here.

Well, this is what it looks like. Living/dining room:
