If you're gonna gamble, hit The Borgata.  Having grown up in AC and Brigantine, I'd pass on The White House.  It's long been entirely overrated.  I like Andre's in Brigantine.  The bars, The Continental and The Trinity, in The Pier are really good.  The food is pretty good too.  The beaches in AC are free but can be crowded because of that.  The beaches in Brigantine, over the bridge from The Borgata, are much better and less crowded for now.  Unfortunately, they aren't free and you need a beach badge.  $15 bucks, I think.  Been a while.

I hope you guys are bad assess.  I saw a clip where one of the guys on that show knocked a guy the make the beast with two backs out with one punch. 

They might be douches but they're still big dudes. 

Just sayin  ;D

Isnt everybody a Badass behind the keyboard??

I just cant believe they let their female housemate get punched in the face, in a bar, by some dude,  without any sort of retaliation.  They all lost huge points. As if they had any in the first place.....

Damn I hate being fascinated by reality television......

Damn it, you caught me. I watched it too.

Shed didn't deserve that.  He lets her get hit and than fights any guy that looks at his girlfriend.   >:(

Never watched that show, so I had to do a bit of research.  I can now make incessant fun of my Italian friend....

I need to save all the IQ I can, so I probably won't be keeping up with it...

i'd also like to point out that those people are all from north jersey...FAR away from philly.


and of course she deserved to be hit. have you heard her talk? she thinks she's hot shit. though i'm told the guy that hit her was stealing her drinks so he should have been hit first.  [laugh]


so what's the sched for the rest of the week?

depending of if i get sent back to work i can def meet up with you on weds night and grab some food and a few beers if you're up for it.

otherwise, we'll see if i can get out to AC if this road trip thing falls through at the last min like everything else does.

I've eaten just about everything I could cram into my face the last 3 days....

Gonna hit the casino's tonight, but looking for something to do in the meantime.  Think I might head down to the beach.  Trying to find a fishing trip thing tomorrow morning sometime.

Wow....whomever said it in the beginning of this thread....you were right.

Casino's I went to = fail.  Terrible dancing girls (hot, but danced like shit), water down drinks, dealers without basic social skills, and an overall depressing feeling throughout.

Had an awesome cheesesteak, some pizza, and good company.  It was an adventure, glad I went....but I'd have been pissed to spend money to travel here for it, thats for sure.

Overall though, Jersey has been a LOT better than I had imagined/heard it to be.
