I get event listings for various venues around Vegas every day. Most of them are things you can find at any Las Vegas website so I disregard them. However the Anchorman National Scotch Day Celebration at the Foundation Room sounds like fun.

- The view (above) from Foundation Room at Mandalay Bay is one of the best in Vegas.
- Anchorman is fun.
More than anything else this event is just a fun excuse to visit the Foundation Room. Here are the details:

Sweet Picture Of The High Roller And Random Facts
I wanted to share this sweet picture of the High Roller at The Linq and thankfully Caesars Entertainment provided some useless random facts about the ferris wheel.
If you’re in Vegas today you can ride the High Roller for free if you’re one of the first 100 people to show up. On to the facts:
During its first 100 days in operation, the High Roller has set records, reached milestones and attracted riders from all walks of life. Key highlights since its opening include:
· The High Roller has made roughly 3,870 full rotations.
· The oldest visitor to ride the High Roller was 99 years old.

United States Vs. Belgium World Cup Prop Bets From William Hill
Whether you’re interested in the World Cup or just interested in sports betting these are the William Hill prop bets available for the US vs. Belgium match on Tuesday.
I don’t bet soccer (or football or futball or whatever you want to call it) but I really enjoy the World Cup. In fact, I’ve been enjoying the World Cup more than expected this year. This is my first World Cup in Vegas and I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the excitement during the games in the various sportsbooks I’ve visited.
Are there any worthwhile prop bets here?
