    Need help STAT: stuck overnight in Detroit

    So my flight to Tokyo blows an engine shortly after takeoff and I'm stuck for the night in detroit.

    Want to play poker at a downtown casino all night. Best way to get there from airport? Best one to play at? Will my mlife card from Vegas work at MGM? Any Caesars properties?

    Any help appreciated, otherwise I'm stuck at airport hotel with jack shit to do

    Caesars is in Windsor, across the river. Haven't been in years.

    MGM is the best in Detroit. I-94 from airport to nearly its front door. You're about 20 minutes away. I'm not sure if your card will work.

    For poker your only real choice is Motor City Casino. MGM and Greektown are available but they not many people play in those rooms.

    http://www.motorcitycasino.com/Directions.aspx

    The casino is a good 20 miles away from the Airport. You can type in DTW for directions on that link above. They may have some shuttle type service to maybe get you there but I'm not sure so just ask around the airport.

    MGM is the nicest casino but not for action in the poker room.

    I'm sure Beer and Poker is 100% right about the action, but MGM is so much nicer.

    On the bright side, they are within a mile of each other. Definitely take a cab if you casino hop, though, or you'll die.

    If you want to greatly reduce the chance of being murdered you go to MGM grand but if you are looking for poker action like BNP said Motorcity.

    GL bro, remember to roll your windows up and lock your door at all red lights and just maybe you'll get out of this thing alive.

    Actually I didnt, hence why I made the thread douche.
    See, when someone is one step down from the CEO of a multi - billion dollar company and is supposed to be in a certain place at a certain time to address hundreds of people in a presentation, it gets "slightly" stressful for someone like that sometimes. I was merely doing what I could to try and ease the stress. That's what someone does when they care about someone else. Don't worry, you didn't invest any time helping, I don't know why you were worried about my overreaction. Funny how the people who kindly helped me via pm didn't do any bitching at all...they just helped.

    Everyone who really thinks badly of what I did that day can truly go screw themselves

    Nobody thinks badly of what you did.

    Sometimes people find humor at other's expense. Just let it go.

    HOF appearance though.

    Hang out at Greyhound in Detroit. Tons of great action. Head around the back and you can find n-words shadily standing around peddling their "Detroit souvenirs".



    You wanna gamble? Skip the line to buy tickets and say it's okay cause your white.

    Good luck

    I hear Bogart's Lounge in Inkster is top top when it comes to strip clubs.

    Getting your wife outa that airport was one thing, but the shit about your wife being so thankful about her life and that she now knows what the poor homeless folk have to go through is what got my goat..

    She was stuck in a warm well secured airport ffs...A consequence that all frequent flyers endure at one point or another.

    An absolute laughable overreaction that distanced both of you from reality.


    And congrats on the CEO thing. She must've sucked some very important cock to blag that gig. Because she sure as hell wasn't appointed for being level headed and calm during a "stressful-lol" situation
