Made It…
Well I got back from Vegas last night surprisingly in one piece. Believe it or not I’ve never been there before so it was without a doubt an eye opener. I’ve heard of some of the ridiculous things that ‘can’ and inevitably happen in Vegas but I was able to see it first hand.
For example, the ambulance stopped by the pool yesterday not to just say ‘hi’ but to wheel someone off because they were rolling WAY to hard. (All I heard as I walked by was the EMT fella asking the ‘patient’ about his jaw, teeth and overall well being so I drew my on conclusion.)
Also, the seemingly friendly overweight bartender (we’ll call him ‘Sam’) at the hotel gave us a helluva story about the Rio and the VooDoo room. Years ago there was a politician staying the night there and he requested the services of a certain ‘lady friend’ to accompany him back to his hotel room. Yadda yadda yadda, something happened, the authorities got involved due to other guests calling in and complaining to the front desk. However the police walked into something far more troublesome than just some messy sheets. Our bartender ‘Sam’ told us they walked into a quite literal blood bath. Like some ‘True Blood’ shit. No idea what happened but whatever happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Within 24 hours the room got new furniture, wall paper, sheets, the whole 9 and was open for business.
The funny thing was that ‘Sam’ told this story without even blinking. As if it happened on ‘the reg.’ As I sat there sipping on my martini (Vegas bitches) not sure what to say next I thought to myself, WHERE THE HELL AM I?!
Even after all of these RIO horror stories, I still had a great time.
