what a bridal bazzar

that was quite a weekend. for those of you who couldnt read between the lines,  i was in vegas for a bachelor party, i mean bridal bazzar. good times all around. heres a mini recap of some of the events. dont worry. this post is sfw:

del friscos

after landing in beautiful las vegas, the first thing we did was head out to del friscos. you might have not heard of this joint before, but our cabbie said that it was the best steakhouse in all of vegas. now i havent eaten at all the steakhouses in vegas, so i cant give a real comparison, but it really was one of the best steaks ive had.

venetian

we stayed at the venetian. now im not sure if this is normal, but that hotel smells really weird. i was told that each of the hotels purposely have a distinct smell piped in – im just not sure why the venetians smell had to be vanilla funk. the suites were really nice and large, so we werent tripping all over each other. one weird thing – it is impossible to get anywhere in that hotel without going through a maze of elevators/hallways. this makes it hard to navigate at 6 in the morning. especially when youre stuck in an elevator with strangers.

friend: why he heck are we stopping on every floor?
silence
elevator stops on another floor
friend: what is going on?!
silence
elevator stops on another floor as the strangers get off
me: i think that guy was leaning on all of the buttons with his shoulder.
friend: you mean that guy that just got off? we need to go fight him.

pai gow poker

out of all the times ive been to vegas, i had yet to find a game i really enjoyed. my friends all enjoy blackjack (game goes too fast), poker (requires too much thinking), and roulette (holy moley, im not even going to get into this one) to some degree, but ive never really found a game that i really felt comfortable playing. until pai gow poker. its especially awesome when you get a kick ass dealer that does things like this:

friend shows hand
dealer (while slapping friends hand): are you serious?! what did i say?! 6 or higher, you split!
friend: oh i forgot.
dealer (grabs one of his $5 chips): if you win this hand, you give me this chip. if you lose this hand, ill give you it back.

now imagine that going on for the entire 3 hours we sat at the table. awesome

rating: 5/5 angry ninjas (probably because i didnt lose money)

overall, it was definitely a great experience. we went with a group of solid guys and had just enough events planned so that we werent bored at any time of the day. it was nice to spend some time with the bachelor, who ive known for 19 years. mike, youve always been the older brother i never had, and i know you expressed some interest in angry ninja t shirts, so this ones for you. your lady is lucky to have such a stand-up guy.

ps. it feels great to not have to share a bed with another dude anymore.
