I KNOW I'm going to forget some people in this little blurb, but please don't take offense! You were all awesome and I'm just throwing this together off the top of my head... I'll skip the guys from dinner last night since I already pointed out their awesomeness in that thread.
PuckOff - Had an amazing conversation near the end of the night about the Kings and just hockey in general. Offseason moves, playoff chances, everything. This guy really knows his stuff and he and his buddy were a blast to talk to. If they hadn't have kicked us out of the room I could have gone on for hours just drinking beers and talking pucks with PuckOff and his buddy
JPowderly - We had a great discussion on how much dieting sucks because we both love to fvcking eat so damn much. Not a big guy though so I commend him for keeping it under control, I know how hard it is being a fat bastard on the inside and trying to be presentable on the outside
Diogee - Man this guy is a damn sparkplug! Awesome sense of humor, high energy, got a drunken interview with him that will be put up in the coming weeks if Loshak doesn't leave me on the cutting room floor
LVHerbie - Spent some time with him and his wife talking about the awful weather in Florida (his wife grew up there, I lived there for three years as a kid) and the whole Vegas experience. Got an interview with him also with some poker questions, can't wait to see what he does in the tournament today!
SexyMit - Rooted home the Dallas game with me, which of course we were on the same side of because we are PHILOSOPHY PICK BROTHERS. He was also there with me when the Cheifs didn't punch it in on four straight tries from the one yard line. I was cranky and stormed off. Sorry SM 
Brock - Sharp guy, knows his way around a sportsbook. He, his buddy and I had a good conversation on some betting strategies and why guys like pags are awesome and why I suck.
konck, bobby baseballs - Had the chance to meet konck and his wife in the limo pickup, both awesome people who you'll see video of later. Bobby is a cool guy also who felt for me when I was bitching about my 1-yard loss all night
flyingillini - I regret not meeting up with this guy back when I was in Los Angeles! True class act, lots of great observations about the forum and fun to talk to. His wife was really great too, and she actually reads posts and keeps up with us lunatics on the board! They were nice enough to invite me to join them for a late dinner after the festivities and were both a pleasure to spend time with.
jackpot269 - Always been a cool guy to me on the forum, was equally cool in person. Talked a bit about how much the tables were kicking our asses. His wife was really sweet too. I was suggesting she play the penny and nickel machines as she is like my girlfriend and content to make $20 gambling funds last the whole trip
PavyRacer - He SHOWED UP! Cool guy with a good sense of humor. Major props to him; to all of you big talkers that don't back it up and to all of you haters, he actually showed up and was a class act. No excuses, play like a champion
Like I said, that isn't even close to everyone, but I've run on too long for now. For those that I didn't mention don't think I didn't love meeting you! Had a great time talking with everyone I encountered last night.
By the way, that's probably the biggest kudos I have to give; to all the wives I met, you were all REALLY awesome. Not only are these posters all cool in person, but they've got some really great women by their side.
