OK, I know all of you are thinking the same thing
How can we convince Jocke to go to the Vegas GTG so we can see the budding bro-mance between him and Paul flourish in person right before our very eyes?

OMG, I should have never read this thread.

I don't think I can ever sleep again without having nightmares.

If Jocke goes, I may go too. I'd love to meet this exceptional and creative character.

I was thinking the only way to get him to go is if Paul promises to yell "I'm the king of the world" right before jumping into the Bellagio fountain.

Only other option is to bait him with a Basel type event at the AD.

just remember jocke. the plane ticket and lodging are relatively cheap. anything to get you to spend more money in vegas. now remember always split 10s and double down on 17.

let's hope he really wants to fly in because raising 450 won't be too hard

Jocke is awfully quiet. He should have known better than to make that statement with this crowd. He doesn't have any excuses now.

Heck, I am not going to the Vegas GTG, but I am in for $50 to fund Jocke's ticket just to see the after pics!

So the GTG is now no longer WIS CON right?

Its The Swedish Invasion

This feels like one of those cliff hangers.

Will Jocke board the flight?
Will Anna pop with excitement?
Will Paul wear shorts?

One quick detail... Does Jocke have a visa for the US? If not, that will need to be sorted before the flights are scheduled.
