Okay, why not? This will come in small installments because I get really busy with work and life, but I'm sick and can't hit up the gym, so why not?
Here's a sanitized (for reason I won't get into here) version of my trip. Please follow the cues as you read if your iPod is available:
Song: I'm The Ish (Kanye Remix)
Friday:
3 PM: Bosses are gone from work, finishing up a pitchbook. I'm waiting for my buddy to call me back since we're supposed to meet up and catch BART (the train) together to the airport.
We soon meet up, drink a couple beers, rendez-vous with another friend on BART itself, and then meet with another friend at the airport.
The thing worth knowing about me is that I'm a very awkward person. I don't mean socially-awkward; I'm actually very social and am not shy at all. I just have certain habits - I lose control of the volume of my voice when I'm excited, I make sudden jerky movements, and am 100% willing to embarrass myself for a good story.
We head through security and, even after putting all my metallic objects in the damn tray, I set off the alarm. I go back, and walk through again. Same thing. One more time of this and the officer tells me he's going to have to scan me personally. For some reason, he thinks he should put me in the clear box. My buddies can clearly see this as they're waiting for me (also, please note, the flight is about ten minutes from taking off).
I tried talking to the officer, but he just made me stay in there. Then, he went to scan me in the corner. He kept telling me to lift my arms, but I couldn't do it normally. I looked like I was surrendering to a routine airport check. I thought it was dumb, but my buddies decided to take pictures and upload it on facebook. The pitfalls of technology. Thank you, iPhone
8 PM: Finally land and it's Vegas time! There are four of us at this point and three more waiting for us at the Venetian. We grab a cab and head to the hotel. Somehow, we manage to grab the most sinfully boring cab driver alive. He spent about ten minutes, no joke, talking about the camera in his car without any intonations in his voice.
Sorry, did I say he's a cab driver? He's a cab driver / realtor / pimp. He then proceeds to tell stories about girls and what they'll do for us. I have not heard anyone so unexcited talking about sex... ever. Imagine the teacher from Ferris Buehler saying this: "You can get a handjob.... or a blowjob... or even sex from these girls" and you have our driver.
8:30 We escape from the cab driver and get dressed in our suite, which was booked for one, but we put seven people in there anyway, because we're cheap. So we start blasting the music...
Switch to The Good Life - Kanye West Ft T-Pain
We pound shots as we get ready for dinner at the Tao Restaurant (yes, guys, this actually works). Quick pro-trip: when you drink as much as I do, straight shots, especially from warm bottles start to induce gag reflexes. How do I make shots go down 100x more easily? Lime juice! Add a splash to any shot and... BAM!... you can take it down like you're a freshman in college again.
Run downstairs, wrecking havoc through the casino of the Venetian. On the way, one friend runs into a cocktail waitress, who then drops all her drinks on the ground. Visibly pissed off, she starts yelling at him, when another friend comes up to her and yells "It's YOUR fault!" and walks away.
Make it to Tao and attempt to fulfill our goal of eating here cheaply and making it into the club. This worked out even better than we imagined - we ate dinner there (interspersed by a trip back to the room to pound several more shots, of course), spent less than $35/person, and got into the nightclub free and without waiting in line (since we entered around 10 PM). The best part is we got our hands stamped, which we used to, what else, go back to the room and pre-party some more.
This time, we go all out and finish most of our bottle that we brought and jump to Tao, skipping line, even all the hot girls there. Clearly, we had to show this fact off to them, which was appreciated greatly (read: much flipping off occurred).
The club is still relatively empty at 11 PM, so we roam around. Apparently the rooftop is closed off for bottle service. Normally, I'd have no interest in going up there, but since it's so exclusive, I just follow a group that has bottle service and all seven of us end up there at the bar. It's a beautiful and clear night, so we grab some Bud Light Limes and toast to the night ahead.
Now the club is popping, so we head back to the main dancefloor...
Switch to La La La La - LMFAO
So the dj starts lighting fire on the dancefloor and we're all dancing for a bit (or at least the guy version of dancing, which involves yelling lyrics out and possibly fist-bumping guido style). Soon, we decide to get closer to the girls around us.
Now, there had been rumours going around that I'm a bad wingman. This is clearly unacceptable, since I am an awesome wingman (pretty simple logic - I don't hook up at clubs and I look like a decent guy, so I bring some legitimacy and won't fight for the hotter girl). So we find two Indian chicks - one that's cute, the other that probably downs samosas like I down shots (ie she's fat). So I dance with her so my friend can dance with the cute one. Later, these girls accuse us of stealing their wallets.
LMFAO comes on stage, rocks the world, we down some Jaegar Bombs, chat up girls, etc.
Finally, the night is coming to a close around 3 AM, so we head out. I get a little separated from the group, so I'm heading out. The bouncer stops me near the exit and says "Are you heading out?"
So he drags me outside to the back exit and says "I need to ask you a few questions", none of which were consequential. Then, he draws Xs on my wrists, as I get thrown out of a club that I was leaving anyway... WTF?
I apparently decide that this would be an awesome time to play blackjack, my favourite game. So we head to Palazzo, which has $25 minimum tables (way above what I wanted). Two hands later, I just lost $50 (about five Coronas). Guess it's time to call it a night?
[Editor Note: In retrospect, it doesn't sound that crazy. It's kinda tough to describe what happens inside the club. Good thing tomorrow has tons of out-of-club action!]
SoCal Girl 09-22-2009, 06:43 PM You just set a new bar for writing TR's. I loved having music to read with it. It really sets the mood and feel. I can't wait for the next one! Will we get to see some pictures with it? Or is that only for facebook?
hotforvegas 09-22-2009, 06:46 PM better late than never! Nice job so far
rnjbond 09-22-2009, 06:59 PM Haha, I don't think my friends would appreciate pictures (I can post my picture with LMFAO, though, I don't care). Stupid internet is public record these days
extragolden 09-22-2009, 07:00 PM Let's analyse the facts: One, you were accused of stealing some girls' wallets at the club. Two, you got kicked out of the club. One plus two equals shady!
SoCal Girl 09-22-2009, 07:03 PM Haha, I don't think my friends would appreciate pictures (I can post my picture with LMFAO, though, I don't care). Stupid internet is public record these days
I'll take it! Those concerts with them looked crazy.
rnjbond 09-22-2009, 07:12 PM Let's analyse the facts: One, you were accused of stealing some girls' wallets at the club. Two, you got kicked out of the club. One plus two equals shady!
haha, so it's an ongoing thing that I get kicked out of clubs for nonsensical reasons. Never for causing trouble or being too drunk or anything. This is just another example of that!
Here's me with LMFAO. Notice how I ignored every single person's piece of advice and wore a tie on my first night.
PS: a video from inside Tao with LMFAO performing:

SoCal Girl 09-22-2009, 07:21 PM That needs to be your new Avatar picture. I like the tie you didn't look like a waiter to me. I heard that song on the radio this weekend and they replaced the Vegas part with our city but it sounded like someone recorded it in the bathroom. It wasn't even them....it sucked.:rolleyes:
rnjbond 09-22-2009, 07:28 PM Haha, thanks.
Yeah, they do a version of that song for every city... even Boise has its own version!
nassau 09-22-2009, 09:31 PM Dude, Do you talk fast? for some reason I'm reading your TR and i just hear your voice and it's like you are talking really fast..weird...
royale 09-22-2009, 09:47 PM hahaha Downed Samosas huh? Which did you end up hanging out with?
So that was the night when you saw LMFAO... I was still at home sleeping :)
P-tr-ck 09-23-2009, 01:50 AM nice tr. leep them coming.
ChappStick 09-23-2009, 02:31 AM Good TR so far. Nice touch with the background music. Sorry to hear that you got accused of stealing some chics wallets thats fucked up. No worries about the Black X it just means that you had an Xtremly Good Time:D Keep the Report coming.
SunFire 09-23-2009, 06:18 AM Nice TR so far keep it coming... and +1 to the music is a nice touch
rnjbond 09-23-2009, 10:02 AM Dude, Do you talk fast? for some reason I'm reading your TR and i just hear your voice and it's like you are talking really fast..weird...
Haha, only when I tell stories like these. So many details, so little time!
hahaha Downed Samosas huh? Which did you end up hanging out with?
None. After the cute one turned away, I bailed out of the fat one like a marine out of a burning plane.
Also, to clarify, I did not actually steal anyone's wallets. Promise.
royale 09-23-2009, 10:54 AM None. After the cute one turned away, I bailed out of the fat one like a marine out of a burning plane.
Lol i would've done the same.. So did you meet a lot of desi on the trip?
rnjbond 09-23-2009, 11:59 AM Shockingly, very few.
Only those two girls that night and two girls on Saturday night (details of this encounter, and of how much of a jerk I can be, coming up).
SunFire 09-23-2009, 12:18 PM Shockingly, very few.

Looking forward to the jerk moment those are usually my fav's since I always set them as a new standard for myself... I don't mean to but it just happens

Cisco419 09-30-2009, 05:19 PM Dude, Do you talk fast? for some reason I'm reading your TR and i just hear your voice and it's like you are talking really fast..weird...
I was reading it the same exact way. like he's talking really fast because he's so excited about it all
Cisco419 10-01-2009, 04:39 PM Ok, perhaps I missed something, why was it that you got kicked out? Was it in connection with the girls that accused you of stealing their wallets?
Or was it that you werent rolling with bluebear?!?
rnjbond 10-08-2009, 04:21 PM Okay, I'm bored at work. Here comes part two:
(Slip in "I Gotta Feeling" by Black Eyed Peas)
Wake up Saturday morning, all of us are really hungover from the night prior. Wake up, wander around, gamble, etc. Watch some college football, place some bets (the spread for the Florida-Charleston Southern game was +63, so clearly, we put tons of cash on it).
Hit up Tao Beach, decide it's too crowded and we're all over LMFAO, so we go to the Venetian pool instead and hang out with some Bud Light Limes. A few friends are impressed by the concept of buoyancy (the idea that a half empty bottle can float in water, whereas a full one cannot). Meanwhile, this one very ripped African-American dude walks across the pool and, seriously, every single person the pool (dude or chick) is staring at him. I'd say he was a college football player, but this was Gameday.
We watch some more games, hang out, miss the JC meetup, then decide the best plan for pre-gaming is to order Pizza Hut, drink, and watch the Cal game (man, remember when Cal was good?), so we do exactly that. My buddy and I run down to Walgreens, pick up some cups, mixers, and a giant industrial-sized Red Bull for me (I'm getting old).
(Switch to "Down" by Jay Sean)
As we get the pizza from the delivery man, we're the only two at the room and we're waiting outside for our friends, who have the only room keys, to show up. In the meantime, we get excited because Florida only won by 61 points = EASY $$$$
While waiting outside, this one gorgeous chick was walking down the hall, complaining she can't get Advil. I brought some Motrin with me, so I offer and she comes in (actually, she waited outside with us while our buddies came back). Her friend follows and, damn, she has a beach-ready body. We know this because she was wearing her bikini in my room.
Normally, I can have a tendency to be really obnoxious to chicks we just meet in this situation, but I decided not to be a clockbock and instead be nice to them, chat them up, etc. They invite us to go to XS with them, but, hey, there's no way seven guys are going to get in. Plus, we have our party bus to worry about!
We pre-game hard, watch Jahvid Best dominate, watch Kevin Riley play smart football (remember those times?!), and down some pizza. Life is great and we're all very drunk at this point. Clearly, it's time to head out -- first destination is Rouge at the MGM.
(Put on "Run This Town" by Jay Z)
We decide that taking a cab would be a waste of money and clearly, the MGM is only a couple minutes away from the Venetian. Drinks to go in red cups in hand (I LOVE VEGAS), with a bottle of Malibu on the side, we wander down the strip. Along the way, we piss about every single person off (and, believe me, this is a tough feat to accomplish in Vegas). We harass the sleazy peope handing out those prostitute cards, yell random stuff at strangers, and take shots out of the bottle (Malibu isn't glass) in the middle of the street. I saw a man dressed as a Pooh Bear somewhere on the strip, and decided to snap a picture with him (will post this when I get back home) and basically attack him with a giant bear hug. His promoter told me not to strangle him.
We finally get to Rouge a little later than anticipated, but who the hell cares?!
It's our bro's birthday, so we made a nice plan - buy him a shot or a drink every half hour. It started at Rouge with their awesome "Buy One Drink Get One Free" specials. Rouge was basically empty except us, but with cheap drinks, who the hell cares?! We pounded shots, scooby snacks, everything, then it's time to migrate onto Tabu.
(Time for "Troublemaker" by Akon)
So I've heard people here talk about how much they enjoy Tabu, but I'm not quite sure I understand. It's a pretty chill place, but the music was all electronic and not the kind that's enjoyable. So we instead decide that we should get even drunker and get the birthday boy drunkest and switch up to AMFs. Whoops.
One friend got into an argument with a Vietnamese tool in a vest. Apparently, the guys thought he was a bouncer and my friend played along with it and took money. This did not please security and friend got kicked out. Clearly, the solution at this point was to surround the Vietnamese man and talk with him. So five of us are around him, while one friend talks to his girlfriend and hits on her (later, we find out he was actually just telling her how much trouble he is in). He summarily gives us his number and invites us to do blow in the bathroom. No, I'm sadly not kidding.
So we're over Tabu and it's midnight of our bro's birthday, so we get him ANOTHER shot in the casino and celebrate loudly. It's time to hit up Rum Jungle and finally see what this bus is.
Now, the party bus is basically a tour bus with partiers on it. It was lame. We were definitely having the most fun, but the rest of the people on the bus were too down to be excited. Plus, they serve you shots on the bus (our hostess was hot, fyi), but it was disgusting Popov's in some sort of a cosmo and it was warm. Screw that.
So now we head onto Rumjungle... oh damnit, time to go back to work. Will post Part III a lot more quickly than Part II!
rnjbond 10-08-2009, 04:21 PM Ok, perhaps I missed something, why was it that you got kicked out? Was it in connection with the girls that accused you of stealing their wallets?
I actually still do not know to this date. I just got kicked out for fun.
SoCal Girl 10-08-2009, 04:58 PM I've said it once, I'll say it again....I love reading your TR to the music. Thanks!
However it lead me to listening to "Don't stop believing" from Journey. :D
rnjbond 10-08-2009, 06:14 PM Haha, that song will appear in a future section of the TR!
As promised, here is me attacking a Pooh bear on the strip
NyCzDoLL 10-08-2009, 09:49 PM omg what a funny ass TR...somosa's lololol.....

Readers?
BarrelO 10-09-2009, 08:34 AM I just skip the music switches. Mainly because I don't recognize any of the songs.
rnjbond 10-09-2009, 09:21 AM That makes me sad.
I highly recommend youtubing them and exposing yourself to these songs. Well, if you're into that kind of music, I suppose.

True story - Sikh weddings are the best.
Punjabi weddings, though, carry across everywhere.

(Put on "Written On Her" by Jay Sean)
So I left off with us getting to Rum Jungle on the Night of the Party Bus.
Within five minutes, the birthday boy is done for the night and gets kicked out. Clearly, between all the shots we have fed him, it's too much for him to handle. A friend goes to take care of him, then decides that instead of letting him boot it out, he'll just take the birthday boy home. Next thing I know, they're both being chase through the back kitchen of some restaurant across from Rum Jungle. Deciding that I'm clearly not needed in this situation, I head back in.
Three friends decide to go gamble instead of "clubbing" at Rumjungle. I use that term loosely because, of course, Rumjungle is not a club. It's a bar with gogo dancers above everyone, which is actually pretty cool to look at. By now, I'm ready for clubbing and kinda sick of lounges and stuff -- IT'S VEGAS!
So my friend P and I grab mojitos. It's my favourite rum-based drink, but somehow, they manage to screw it up. I have yet to figure out how. I go to grab a mai-tai soon after and ask for something other than Bacardi in my beverage, but clearly, the bartender fails again. What is going on in this place!!
I look over the crowd and it's all guys and fatties and I'm there with one friend. Clearly, prospects here aren't too great, so we just chill it out and head on over to Christian Audigier at TI.
Now, if you remember from earlier, there were some hot chicks that stopped by our hotel room. One of them described CA as "Tool Academy". If only I knew how right she was (and if only we were a smaller group of guys, we could have gone with them to XS!)
(Switch to "Shake My" by Three Six Mafia)
So we jump on the party bus and head towards TI hotel, down two people. We convince one of our friends that the bus-provided shots are awesome and feed him all of ours, to great profit (he ended up drink about six shots of cosmo shots).
We head to Christian Audiger with a bottle of Malibu, but the hostess is leaving and we're stuck with a problem -- what do we do with this full bottle? A friend has a brainwave and puts the bottle in a trash can in the closed food court, claiming that we can pick it up later.
Head inside the club, scope out the scene -- it's full of a bunch of tools, but because it is LDW, there are a decent number of girls here, so it could potentially be a solid option.
Unfortunately, cosmo boy gets lost and cannot find the club (I once again have no idea how this is possible). Two buddies leave to take care of birthday boy, so it's just P and me here. Not wanting a repeat of Rumjungle, I decide to enjoy this semi-club. First, we wander outside and enjoy the patio. The weather is perfect, so I nab a drink and, in the process, lose P, who will not respond to texts.
I wander back inside the club and see him, very drunk, just staring. So I suggest we hit on girls for fun, a proposition he agrees to. It clearly does not work. We find two Indian chicks on the dance floor and he tries to dance with them, but we both get rejected to great hilarity. Whatever, it's all in good fun. So we wander around a little bit, I get excited when they play Jay Sean's "Eyes on You" (a track of his that was way popular in the UK before "Down" came out here), then we head out.
(Put on "Replay" by Sean Kingston)
First, I stop by the food court, but the cleaning lady stops me from entering. I storm by her without saying anything and reach into the (thankfully) non-used trash can. I feel around, but there's nothing there (guys, how many times have you used that phrase the night after hooking up?). The cleaning lady promptly informs me that my friend picked it up already. That plan apparently worked.
Out of the seven of us, six of us are accounted for, but one is missing. So we head outside the club and see the Indian chicks from the club by the dock. The moment after went like this:
Me: P, you wanna cuss them out?
P: Okay.
P (to girls): You girls want to go to a strip club with us?
Girls: uh... no...
Clearly, he misheard "cuss them out" as something else, so I bust in
Me: P, leave them alone... it's Saturday night and I really don't think they want to go back to work now.
That shut the girls up and bought back some of our pride. Ladies, sorry, I can be a jerk at times, but I'm a nice guy on the inside... promise.
I call the missing buddy and he finally picks up. "I'm outside Walgreens," he shouts, "and I have no clue how I got here."
"Wait there!" I shout, "We're right across the street."
So I see him in front of Walgreens with two bottles of alcohol in his hands. In one hand, he has a bottle of Patron; in the other, a bottle of Sake.
Me: "What the hell?!"
Friend: "I have no clue how I got these..."
I decide it's best not to ask and instead, we start taking shots in the middle of the street. Apparently, it was nice sake, but I wasn't impressed. So I buy a Vitamin Water to help me prevent a hangover tomorrow by hydrating.
On the way back through the hotel, I'm double-fisting Vitamin water and Patron, shouting through the halls, at any group of girls passing by "I'VE GOT THEM DIAMONDS ON MY NECK... GOT PATRON IN MY HAND". Trust me, using this as a tactic made a lot more sense in my head then than it does now. The sad part is girls actually stopped to talk, but we were too drunk to realise, so we just kept walking.
Get back to the room, make some choice drunk dials, forget to drink my Vitamin Water (whoops), and summarily pass the hell out before 4 AM.
Part IV coming soon!

Yea, the ticket prices are insanely hiked up. I was checking out some prices for a Sharks vs Leafs game, and the ticks are almost 10x the face value. Very similar to ticks to a Lakers game. They are always sold out for the year, and you have to buy them through brokers.

Part IV - Fin (Part III if you missed it (http://forums.jackcolton.com/showpost.php?p=42185&postcount=117))
Drop "Throw It In The Bag" by Fabolous into your iTunes
Wake up to a text from a promoter I had been in touch with. He tells me that Fabolous is performing at Jet that night. Fabolous is a favourite of ours, especially "My Time", so I immediately try to rally the troops for this and we're all down. I start arranging the deals, but it's time for food now. We decide that we have to be touristy at least one day, so we head to Bellagio and hit up the buffet. Now, I'm vegetarian, so I only had half the choices, but it was a ridiculous amount of food available and we ate beyond belief for fun. Sadly, no one else was down for the $5 bottomless champagne :(
We head out of the Bellagio, watch the fountain show (never gets old), and head to the Planet Hollywood casino. Something about this place just instantly appeals to me -- it's very "Young Vegas" inside and really feels like an ideal casino for me. One of my friends decides we should all jump roulette tables and play on feelings, which works surprisingly well. Grab our cash, head to O'Shea's.
Put on "Dream Girl" by Akon
We heard they have beer pong tourneys here, along with cheap Blackjack tables, so we jump here. Sadly, all the beer pong tables are full, so we find a cheap blackjack table and start playing. During one game, putting $20 down, I basically rang the gamut of emotions, from triumphant wins, to crushing losses. In the end, betting is a losing proposition, so I ended up losing. :( Oh well...
Head back to the hotel and it's already evening time. Our plans to meet the promoter are solid, so we head to grab some chasers from the Walgreens near the Venetian before heading back to the room. I opine to my buddies that we really should grab some dinner before we head back so we can drink more. Naturally, this suggestion gets clearly shot down. No dinner and no naps? Oh well, we got a massage at Brookstones, which made up for the lack of sleep
Time for "What We Talkin' Bout" by Jay Z
Preparty time! It's the last night of our trip, so naturally, it means we go out the hardest. We have the Patron from the night before, along with a handle of Malibu rum available, and we just line up shots and keep taking them, while chasing it with a mixed drink. Mission = get drunk as quickly as possible.
Also, even though we're not high school girls, we have a tradition that on birthdays or on the last night of trips, we nab a sharpie and track how many drinks we've had on our forearms. At some point, this becomes a competition, but the best part is when you see it the next morning and wonder how it is physically possible to get to that number.
Head out the hotel, cause ruckus in the lobby, just as normal. It turns out that one friend put us down for a VIP table in the meantime, so now I have to blow off my promoter (sorry, buddy!) and go for a VIP table I wasn't too thrilled about in the first place. Oh well. So while we wait, someone else realises that we haven't eaten dinner yet...
Malibu bottle in hand, we cross the street. Obnoxiously drunk at this point, we decide to continue drinking straight out of the bottle. Thank you, Malibu, for making your bottles plastic!
Run across, eat a quick slice of pizza, when I get a call from one friend that we apparently left behind. Uh oh. So I buy him a slice and we head back. Five minutes later, we can't find my friend and he won't pick up his phone. Leave him some texts and head inside.
Sit down at our table, which is off to the side. I wasn't too happy, but we're all drunk at this point and I'm more worried about the buddy that wasn't with us. So we drink some more, try to get hold of him, nothing happens. The club is popping, but I'm too worried, so I grab the only other sane friend with us and we head out on our trip's little "Hangover"-style moment.

So we're both outside Treasure Island and can't find our friend. We go to security, express our concerns, try to describe him, and have people put a lookout for him.
Then, we wonder if he went back to the hotel, so we walk back to the Venetian, go to our room, talk to security, the whole bit, all while calling and texting him. Where the hell could he be? We consider filing a police report, but decide not to go that far.
We check the place where the rest of us ate (not the lost guy), and he's not there. In the meantime, we pass by a casino (can't remember which one) that was selling $1 beers. Naturally, my buzz has gone and I cannot resist a bargain. I grab two and pound them in about two minutes on the way back to Jet. Turns out we came back right in time to go watch FABO.
Here we go! "My Time" by Fabolous
"GO HARD... TODAY!" is how he opens up. Perfect, our favourite song. Guess what time it is? My my my time.
Fab has a great stage presence and really gets the crowd going. We were about ten feet away from the stage, which was awesome. At one point, I was close enough that I could have actually hit him (of course, I didn't) and we were all psyched. Hell, he sang all of our favourites -- My Time; Everything, Everyday, Everywhere; and Throw It In The Bag.
In the middle of this, I get a phone call.... it's the friend we were looking for. I pick it up and all he says is "Where are you guys?" non-chalantly. I try not to hurl my phone at the stage and instead tell him we'll meet up with him after Jet. Turns out in the five minutes since I talked to him while eating pizza, he passed out... outside the hotel. Standing up. For four hours. HOW THE HELL DOES THIS HAPPEN?! Actually, in retrospect, this is absolutely hilarious, though we were really worried at the time
Finally, his performance ends and we're all psyched up. I decide to grab another beer and we party it up at Jet for a little while longer before, well, the special surprise of the night...
"Outta Control" by Baby Bash
It's our friend's birthday party and we're in Vegas, so obviously, we have to go to a strip club. Our friend arranged for everything -- a limo there, comped cover, one free round of drinks, and a limo ride back at... Bada Bing? I'm sure it's no Rhino, but I really don't care.
We jump in the limo, beers in hand, and head to Bada Bing. I honestly don't frequent strip clubs, unless friends make me go (I know most guys say this, but I'm serious). We head inside and the place has about twenty strippers (mostly attractive, surprisingly), but we're basically the only people there. More for us?
We get our first round of Coronas. Naturally, everyone is more concerned with the strippers, so there's more beer for me. I basically had everyone's beer for them over the course of the night and got stupid drunk. I talk to some strippers, refuse lap dances, and instead decide to just be retarded with them. None of them like me :(
Head back to the room around 6 am, try to pack, pass the hell out.
End with "Memories" by Kid Cudi
Wake up the next morning. P and I have a flight back, so we grab our stuff, and head to the airport. I'm running on very little sleep at this point, and I am potentially still drunk from all those beers at the strip club, so I'm just silly the entire time in the airport. Naturally, I got stopped at security AGAIN and put into the box while they searched me. Hell, I didn't even have any metal on me!
During this time, I decided to call friends that weren't there and narrate stories from the night before, especially of our friend who passed out standing up. This is another tradition of mine from any trip -- retelling the stories while they're still fresh in my mind makes the trip that much more awesome in my head. Everyone in the security line is staring at me as I'm semi-yelling into my phone:
Me: "Guess what time it is?"
Friend: "Uh.. it's the same time zone ove.."
Me: "MY MY MY TIME"
Yeah, I'm ridiculous.
We grab some burritos at 360 Burritos, which leads to me cursing the burrito I was eating, in front of the staff (they were horrible). Finally, we board our flight, discuss our next big upcoming trip (Austin for Halloween... which happened a week-and-a-half ago!), look at the pictures on the camera, gossip, and remember our trip fondly.
Went back home and showered the Vegas off me. I no longer smelled like a bad combination of hair gel, cologne, cigarettes, alcohol, stripper, and heat.
And then the PVS set in the very next day at work...
Finished!
nicely done. we have some good writers on this forum. thats why I just post pics. :D
royale 11-11-2009, 09:12 AM Yea, strip clubs are not for everyone. I just don't see the purpose of paying for something in which I can get for free, and in abundance anyway.
rnjbond 11-11-2009, 09:26 AM Haha, not everyone is studly enough to nab a hot girlfriend.
Plus, I will admit, strippers are kinda funny to talk to.
BritishV 11-11-2009, 09:26 AM Nice TR...not sure I'd have wanted to meet you at your more raucous moments..but sounds like you had a lot of fun.
Must go back and read parts 1-3 now!
rnjbond 11-11-2009, 09:42 AM To be fair, as obnoxoius as I may be, I'm just as entertaining.

rnjbond 11-11-2009, 12:32 PM Uh oh.

LovesVegas18888 11-16-2009, 03:06 PM I'd bump it
royale 11-16-2009, 03:06 PM I'd bump it

Addicted2SinCity 11-16-2009, 06:53 PM btw, colts last night - AWESOME!
NOT awesome.
NOT awesome.
+1 but the playoffs is what really counts and thats when they always see their dreams slip away. :D

only thing better than a Pats win is a loss for Manning :D
rnjbond 11-17-2009, 06:19 AM royale ran her off :(
To be fair, I think I had some responsibility for that.
PS, not a fan of either Colts or Pats, but Belichick still made the right call going for it.
royale 11-17-2009, 08:13 AM royale ran her off :(
hey no one is suppose to know that.. she ran 'herself' off :)
rnjbond 11-17-2009, 09:35 AM To be fair, she's not a girl; there are none on the internet.
royale 11-17-2009, 09:36 AM To be fair, she's not a girl; there are none on the internet.
thats true... its too complicated to use for them :)
rnjbond 11-17-2009, 09:37 AM thats true... its too complicated to use for them :)
The internet is harder to use than a car and we saw what happened when women were allowed to drive
(Okay, I'm definitely going to get kicked off this forum at some point)
mrankimonki 11-17-2009, 11:05 AM only thing better than a Pats win is a loss for Manning :D
i believe in the man[ning] :). bond is right that belichick made the right call on 4th and 2 but manning was able to motivate his group of rookies that they could overcome a 17 point deficit in the 4th quarter... and that too against a patriot defense... so all props to him
and i think they'll take care of the pats again in the playoffs

I dont think it was a horrendous call, thats what hes done for years...he lives by the sword and it mostly works out for him, but like I said earlier I think he should have allowed the colts to score right away and then get the ball back down by one with brady moss and welker, they WILL get into fg range and most likely win it and they look like heroes
rnjbond 11-17-2009, 11:33 AM To be fair, the Colts did everything they could have to extend that drive and milk as much time off the clock.
Honestly, Belichick's call was right, it's the timeout management that was horrible. No challenge and no timeouts for Brady's comeback attempt.
nyc2vegas 11-17-2009, 11:35 AM To be fair, the Colts did everything they could have to extend that drive and milk as much time off the clock.
they tackeld addai at the 2 yd line with 1:15 left he scores there and the pats win the game
royale 11-17-2009, 11:35 AM Hey I thought there was an official football thread some where :) But this is the good type of hijacking.. I just can't stand posts about shoes and dresses.
nyc2vegas 11-17-2009, 11:36 AM not hijacking its rnjs own thread, he converted it
mrankimonki 11-17-2009, 11:38 AM royale, u got nye plans in the bay [now its being hijacked :P]

I'm 100% okay with that (but please read part IV :( I spent a lot of time on it)
PS, don't count the Niners out yet

only teams Im counting out is the colts and the saints..........but Im just going by history :D
rnjbond 11-17-2009, 12:14 PM To be fair, the Saints did very well in their last playoff run.
And I'd count out the Colts only if they are somehow stuck playing the Chargers.

Cant wait for that game! :D
