Las Vegas in 24 Hours

I recently returned from a whirlwind trip to Las Vegas with my friends David and John. We went to celebrate David's 21st birthday, and while we were there I learned a few things.

1. Limo drivers love talking about strippers, strip clubs, and stripping.

2. If you plan on going to the Barbarry Coast casino, be prepared to get into (a) a knife fight (b) a gun fight or (c) a knife and gun fight. Point is it's no place for the wallstreet type....it's 100% THUG.

3. Larry Flint likes to dine at the Belagio between the hours of 11pm-1am.

4. Roulette is a gentleman's game. One might think the odds are always stacked in the house's favor, but with the right combination of rum and coke everyone is a winner.

5. Always use the buddy system when going to the bathroom. If you pass out on the can who knows how long you'll be there until somebody finds you.

6. If you're in a dark bar at 4 am and the furniture smells like vomit resist the temptation to sit. Standing will keep you awake/sober and nobody wants to sit in puke.

7. Gypsies like to hang out in hotel lobbies around sunrise, and they are called gypsies because they "gyp" people. They specialize in stealing purses and suing casinos/hotels.

8. Ketel One is a premium vodka and ordering it will impress everybody.

9. $1.99 pancakes at The Palms is a great way to start the day but if you've been drinking all night stay away from the sausage and eggs...trust me!

10. Again for emphasis...limo drivers love talking about strippers, strip clubs, and stripping.
