Casino/Halloween Party

Ms. Duck and I occasionally provide casino games for local parties, both private and corporate functions. The fraternity and sorority parties are our favorites.

Last Friday we had a gig at the local convention center. Our client was a state-wide insurance service company, so I felt like it would be a rather tame party. Having been around insurance folks for the past 30 years (thru Ms. Duck's former job), I learned that as a group, they are not exactly party animals.

As it turned out, this was a combination casino and Halloween party, so many of the guests came in costume, which was a lot of fun. Add a little alcohol and a good time was has by all!

Here are a few pictures of the festivities :)

Darth Vader and Crew was there. (He has a GREAT poker face!)

J-Dawg and myself running the craps table.

And this was BEFORE the drinkin' started!

Aliens relaxing before the MIB's captured them.

Fun night!
