Renaissance Aruba Now Offering Fantasy Football Draft Packages

The best part about fantasy football is, obviously, winning. But other than that, draft day is a close second.

Some people gather for golf weekends, some just meet online and a lot of people just go to one house and get drunk while making fun of people for picking Chris Cooley in the second round.

But now, there's a whole new level that you can take it to. And that level is called "Aruba".

"Fantasy sports have become a nearly billion-dollar-a-year industry and we're looking to serve this new market with a first-of-its-kind package," said Paul Gielen, general manager of the Renaissance Aruba Resort & Casino. "Drafts have become somewhat of a ritual for participants and we thought, why not transform the entire draft experience into a getaway?"

What, pray tell, does the "Destination Draft" package include? (Other than a big pile of awesomeness, that is.) For starters: four resort rooms for three nights, a $400 group casino credit, a $400 group cocktail credit, a "decked out suite to conduct the draft, including complimentary Wi-Fi, food and local beer."

But surely," you say, "the costs must be astronomical!" Not so fast, my friend. For baseball season (February 1 - April 16) it's only $96132 per person, per night. And for football (June 1 - September 1), a cool $13296. (Ed. Note: the football is actually cheaper and the prices are flipped.) And while I'm not one to shill for a particular destination, Aruba + fantasy sports + gambling is almost too perfect. I'm pretty sure even Mike Shanahan couldn't ruin it.
