If you like baseball, gambling and golf, then Las Vegas is the place to be on March 28-29, 2008. Rarely can you get such a great combination as this all in one weekend. The Chicago Cubs and Seattle Mariners will be playing a little ball at Cashman Field in downtown Las Vegas on these dates.
This is one great excuse to bring your clubs out of hibernation and get a jump on the golf season. The Friday game doesn't start until 7:15 p.m. local time which gives you ample time to play a round of golf at one of the unique desert golf courses in the area. After a great day on the links you can sit back and watch two of the most exciting teams in baseball battle it out in Las Vegas.
On Saturday, March 29, the game starts at 12:05 but you still have a chance to get in an early morning round, that is, if you weren't out gambling and drinking too late. One of the closest golf courses to the stadium is Las Vegas National. This old-school golf course has been featured in movies and once hosted a PGA Tour event during the 50's and 60's.
This quick trip to Las Vegas will brush up your golf game, maybe earn you some extra cash and ignite your passion for the upcoming baseball season.
