Vegas

You know the saying, "What happens in Vegas..."

Well, I found that not to be true because I just recently visited Vegas and because of the crazy things that took place, I cannot keep it to myself. I have to tell somebody!

Don't get it twisted, it's not what you think. I'm not referring to anything that's considered a "sin" while in "Sin City", this is more along the lines of crazy/stupid/funny.

One thing I found out this visit was that there is nowhere to sit in any club you go to, unless you pay to sit down. Oh yes, you have to pay...literally. I'm not used to that because here in Houston, the seats in the clubs are first come, first serve unless you have reserved a particular section for a party or something. That's not the case in Vegas. Every single seat, booth, table, etc. is pre-reserved, but not for people who have called ahead, they're reserved for first come, first serve customers who want to pay to sit down once they arrive. Yes, everything done in Vegas costs money! You have to pay to play (or sit, in this matter). I asked one of the bouncers/security guards if I could sit down and he told me that I could definitely sit, for the right price. I had to purchase a bottle of liquor, priced at $400 or better, in order to sit down for a measly 5 minutes to rest my aching feet. No sir! I looked at him like he was crazy and walked off. I ended up sitting down at an empty booth when no one was looking and took my chances on getting scolded, thrown out or arrested, whatever the punishment is for sitting down at a club without permission. Go figure.

At any rate, I was able to rest my tired dogs and pretend I had no idea sitting wasn't allowed unless you paid for it, and ended up having a good time. Here is a photo of one of the guys who was partying nearby, that I pretended told me that the table I was sitting at was his table and he allowed me to sit, before I brushed passed security and made a dash for the main dance floor before they could find out I was lying...


THANK YOU LAS VEGAS, FOR A WEEKEND TO NEVER FORGET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
