Default Re: Group trip to foxwoods (how to maximize fun?)

[ QUOTE ]
Hey all, sorry if this topic as been discussed ad nauseum but I wasn't sure what to search for. Me and nine of my friends will be in the foxwoods area in a few weeks for our yearly getaway. Is there anything specific that works better for a large group? How hard will it be for a large group of us to get on a craps table together or something like that? Any specific bar recommendations as well? Thanks!

Actually a crap game is set up for 16 players but 14 fit comfortably not 9 like someone said. On weekends games will be all 10 min. on rainmaker side and do go down to 5 in the very early morning hours. On the pequot side games are all 10 except for 1 25 min game and 2 50 min games in newport room. Late night they will all be 10 except for the 50 min games. They will not let you have your own private game at all. Best bet is to all go up to a game and be polite but try to take it over from the other players. Most will just leave or hang out with you.
As for Bars since i would check out the BB king or even the Mez lounge. Both arent bad You should also check out Mohegans bars and rest. as they are actually better and im saying that and i work at Foxwoods. Both casinos on weekends have last call at 1:30. No drinks allowed in hand after 2.

Its aslo a 25 min ride to Misquamicut beach in RI. Very good Bar scene down there as long as the weather is good. They are done with alcohol after 1.

Two alternatives to last call are BYOB and sneak it in or a quick jaunt to NYC

[/ QUOTE ]

Good answer/bad answer.

Good one BYOB. One Friday and Saturday the great state of Puritanism....err... Connecticut last call is 2 AM.

Bad answer. NYC is two hours away........sober.

Check out Mystic if you go off site, it is the home of Mystic Pizza dontcha know. You might even run into Julia Roberts.
