Where and When? The Tony Bigcharles Game

This post concerns the famous (and infamous) Tony BigcharlesI'm sure most of you follow his adventures to at least some degree.  If you have no interest in Tony, you can skip this post and come back in a couple of days.

So if you do follow Tony, you know he just now returned to Las Vegas.  He left Toledo (via Detroit) very suddenly, mysteriously leaving behind his clothes and luggage (and who knows how many pizza turners).

Whenever Tony relocates, it's fair to wonder how longer he'll remain in his new "home" this time, and where he'll go to next.  He never stays one place very long, as we all know.

So I started thinking someone should start a pool to bet on where Tony moves to after he inevitably tires of Vegas, and of course, how long will that be?  Sadly, I don't have the time or the desire to set up an actual pool for this, you know the kind where people bet actual real money on this and someone holds the money until Tony leaves town and we have a winner.

Besides, with two factors involved (where and when), it might be difficult to determine a winner.  What if one person nails the date but a different person gets the location and nobody gets both.  Who wins?

If someone wants to do this as a real pool, be my guest.  But for now, I just thought I'd throw this post up here and let people give their best guesses in my comments section below.  There's no cost to play--and also no prize for the winner(s).  

So just post your best guess as to when Tony will leave Vegas.  And also where he will go when he does.  Actually that could be tricky.  Sometimes Tony makes very short stops on his way to his next "permanent" location.  If I'm not mistaken, last time (before this) he returned to Vegas, he couldn't catch a flight at the right time (or right price) to Vegas so he flew to Phoenix, spent a day or two there, and took a bus into Vegas.  So I'd say he has to stay at least a week at his new location for it to count.  I think that's fair,no?

Again, this is just for bragging rights, no prize, but feel free to guess away.  Does Tony leave Vegas next month, or March (give a specific date, person closest wins) or even later?  Is his next home Reno?  Los Angeles?  Louisiana?  Toledo?  Louisiana?  Some part of Florida?  Give it your best shot.

Note:  If you are wondering about this picture below and what it has to do with the subject of the post, I will remind you that it is well known that Tony hates girl-on-girl action.  So it seems appropriate, doesn't it?  I mean, I could have just posted a pic of TBC himself, but I'm sure everyone (but Tony) will agree this is better.

  1. Hey Rob, I'm guessing Tony will move into Mara Lago soon.
    A week. His favorite guy told him his wife spends all her time in NY and how lonely he is. Some boy on boy action.
    Do I win my prize!

    1. Thanks for participating. I actually have it in my contract....I will NOT be assigned to the Tony Bigcharles beat. Will have to wait until he blabs about it on twitter or his blog.

    1. Wow, that sounds perfect for Tony. I'm sure he's looking forward to that (both parts).

  5. Tony confirmed, in person, that his rent is paid for a month... More developments as they occur...

    1. Well, ok, but I should point out that he recently had a room paid up for a month (or whatever) and left early. I can't remember where this was and if he was able to get a refund or left leaving money on the table, but the point is just his being paid up for a month doesn't guarantee he'll stay.

      But even if he does stay the entire month, the "contest" is open ended, you can pick a time in late February or behind, Matt.

      Anyway, thanks for coming by and sharing that.

  6. This one bedroom 59th floor corner unit at the Trump LV has a monthly rent of $4500. It has a spectacular view down the strip. This is such an obvious choice for our Hero to rent???

    1. Yeah, pretty sure that is a bit outside of Tony's price range. But it's a nice thought, Lester.

  7. Sometime in Early February Tony will wake up early, by accident u see, and head outside and see his shadow, thus giving him 6 more weeks in Vegas even though 4 of those he will talk about how he should leave because the game is rigged and he can earn more elsewhere.

  8. I think early February. Tony wakes up on Super bowl Sunday and sees all the extra people in Vegas and figures one of them is after him. So he hightails it to Laughlin then complains about all the old nits playing there.

    1. Lol....but I dunno if Laughlin counts as relocating from Vegas....it's two close.

  9. Well, Tony actually fled Vegas on February 23. Although he denied on Twitter, he apparently ended up in the L.A. area for now and has been playing at Commerce.

    Ohcowboy12go was only a day off on the actual date, but missed the location by about 3,000 miles. No one guessed L.A.

  10. TBC will end up in Deadwood sooner or later.
