That sounds amazing! What a wonderful time. Thanks for telling us about it, and can't wait to see pictures AND your son in the next video game! My son is a huge fan, and has all the video games, so I'm sure we will get that one.

Truly amazing win! Which 8 people did you pick to bring with you, just out of curiosity? And I see those 8 people each got $500 cash, well, since you probably have to pay lots in taxes on such great win... did you make them share some of the money with you, since all their expenses were taken care of?? :laugh: Most of us will only dream about such an event happening to us, but it is good to hear that it is happening to OLS members!!! Congrats on such a cool prize. Also, if your son will be featured in a LOTR game... how old is he??? Thanks! :supstar:
