A pit critter once told me....

"They've let a lot of f'n kids into this town, and
a lot of stupid midwestern tourists. But last I checked,
you are

STILL ALLOWED TO HAVE FUN IN LAS VEGAS."


Take a chill pill. My behavior at BARGE is not gonna cause you to

A) Gain Weight
B) Get fired from your job C) Make you take a job (heh)

There's gonna be a Rock's N Beer. It will be the same as always.
A bunch o fools shooting an angle at the casino. Twas never
a protest of anything, sorry. I may have once disgused it
as such, but LIGAFFA whoever that poker room manager was at
the Luxor. I just wanted to drink and carouse, and to get away
from those members of the BARGE contingent who have forgotten...

"YOU ARE STILL ALLOWED TO HAVE FUN IN LAS VEGAS"

Nobody at some obscure casino is going to track the BARGE
down at Binions and get us all thrown out of town. Or get us
refused service. The reason
"YOU ARE STILL ALLOWED TO HAVE FUN IN LAS VEGAS"

as exhibited by Ms. Behnen is that the Vegas casinos could care
less about anything, as long as they get paid. God knows the
casinos shoot enough angles - not even disguised - to separate
us from our money. So occasionally I will try and separate
them from a beer for as little coin as possible. Whoopee!

I'm also going somewhere to get barred. Shit, it's been at least
2 weeks since that happened to me. I'm not announcing it. Somebody
was pretentious enough to imagine that the Mass Barring two years
ago was ruined because the casino knew about it ahead of time. I
prefer to believe it was because a bunch of morons walked in and
announced it to the pit. I'm going to go somewhere, put down an
obnoxiously large spread in a very casual manner, have many beers,
and wait for the pit to send me on my way, along with my cohorts.
I'll look for the biggest fishiest BJ player in the world to sit
next to and treasure his confusion when the barring happens. I'd
recommend the Hard Rock, because it's full of young ``experts'',
and jackass pitbosses. It's beautiful when the pit tries as hard
as he can to resist his natural temptation to be a jackass and
try to bar you discretely so as to not disturb the fish tank. But
he can't do it. So the fish chases you to the cage to find out
why you can't play anymore. I wish that would convince the fish
to go elsewhere, but instead he probably learns just enough about
21 to lose more.
And if you have trouble with my obnoxious behavior, please tell me.
And I'll politely remind you..

"YOU ARE STILL ALLOWED TO HAVE FUN IN LAS VEGAS"

No matter what your definition of fun is. So I will clap and scream,
and those of you in the Royal Box can just rattle your chips.

Oh, and I recommend the Main Street Station for the craps games
after the Symposium. $2 craps with 20X odds, and they have a
Microbrewery. The dealers are excellent, and the waitresses can
be bribed for better service. Now that's Vegas.
