Places you have surprisingly never have visited?

As much trouble and *cough* "sales" I did in the 80's and early 90's I cannot believe I have never been to Vegas. Vegas baby. I got a couple of clients there but the travel budget is the size of a Peppermint Patty now.

And despite having family in Madrid, never been there either.

Hope to fix one of the two this year.

It's Vegas for me too. I've wanted to go since I turned 21, but things just never worked out.

That changes during Thanksgiving break this fall. My Dad and I are hitting the strip then! It will probably be my only vacation until after I graduate.

Once I finish up with school I'd love to visit Dublin, Edinburgh, and London.

Skywalker Ranch.

got a cousin in Miami a filmmaker. Was THIS close to working on the last three episodes of Star Wars. Was at SW Ranch and didn't make the final team. Crushed to say the least. Just doing the editing of those films would have set him for life.

    • So dumb I get it, they want to expand the reach of the NFL, but it's not the right sport to be playing games halfway around the world for a variety of reasons.   But one of the main ones is what happens if a player has an injury in that game? A lot of times, you're not supposed to fly right after some injuries, so when they happen here it's not a big deal, the player stays in that town for a few days and then flys home separately.  But that opens a whole bag of worms if the game is played all the way out in Australia. Plus just needing that long of a flight to get out there and back, even if they get a bye week after, it means a ton of travel and needing to adjust to a new time zone directly after another game.
    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
