The perfect vegas scenario

Everybody has their vegas story. Everybody has that one spontaneous day they came up and something excited happen. But have you ever had a vegas trip where everything went without a hitch. I mean sure you have your highlights, but is there a time where its truly perfect. Now I've had my fair share of good times, I've also had my share of bad times. Mostly these bad times happen because of stupid reason and a hotel is trying to maintain a image or a profit. But on my way back from vegas this weekend, I was thinking to myself what would be the ideal vegas weekend for me.

So here's my perfect vegas scenario. I'm not going to be too outrageous, but enough to make it seem like it can happen.

To start off it would be a Friday afternoon, I would land in vegas on a airplane in first class. When I immediately leave the airport, I don't need a limo, just a shuttle to get me to my destination. The taxi line would be non existent and a taxi/shuttle would arrive the minute I enter the line. I arrive at my hotel, I check in and I immediately have a good time with my friends. We would have drinks, chit chat a little bit and we would then have a nice meal. Nothing too fancy but still have some class. I'll save the really fancy dinner for Saturday. After the meal, we go too the night club, any night club and get in automatically with little or no charge.

See what I don't get is the whole clubbing deal. It disappoints me that it is always impossible to get into the hottest club. And that the club is really crowded where you barely have room to move let alone dance. The club shouldn't be crowded, it should be very spacious and have music playing, but also have a place where people can talk. It is pretty difficult to holla at someone when you have techno music bumbin on full blast. I understand that you want the ratio not to be a dude fest, but at least let the dudes have a fighting chance of finding girls in the clubs before giving them the cold shoulder. I'm more than willing to pay to enter in a club, but don't charge me $20 for a $4 drink and $50 for admission because I don't have a lot of females in my party.

With that said, clubbing should have good music, decent priced drinks and should be spacious. While in the club, I wouldn't mind meeting a friendly group of people who are down to party like my friends. You know the "tell your friends, to get with my friends, and we can be friends" type deal. None of this, "I know I'm pretty so buy me a drink" mentality.

After the club, we hang out with our new found friends and get a bite to eat. We figure its pretty late, but you still decide to be spontaneous and gamble or do some wild night event. Go back to your hotel room, (or maybe your friends hotel room hehehe) and sleep.

After 6-7 hours of uninterupted sleep, we head straight to a cabana by poolside. The cabana will have a fully stock fridge & bar and unlimited food orders (if I want Pescatora, I want Pescatora dammit). With the pool in front of us, drinks are allowed in the pool but please no peeing in the pool. It's nasty when you go in a pool fool of people and its just oddly warm. There should be some shit to make your urine blue to show who be peeing. Everybody is friendly and they play some hip hop/r&b in the background. Not techno or slow rock. Get a full body massage at the cabana and then get ready for a scrumptios dinner.

Saturday night dinner is the fancy one that won't cost you a arm and a leg. It should be new and surprising, it should also feel familiar and comforting. And if you say the price is $50, the price should only be $50. The dinner should be one of those dinners where you're thinking "this is one fantastic meal, I definitely have to go and recommend my friends the place."

After your dinner, you repeat the club cycle, however after the club, instead of the meal you chill and a nice lounge and smoke some cigars with your friends. Gamble a little bit more and win. Meet some new friends from the club and crash again for another 6-7 hours.

Sunday you wake up to no check out deadline, you just leave whatever time you want. You hop on a taxi which won't cost you a arm and a leg just to get to the airport and you have some Jason Mraz songs playing in the background like it was rolling credits in a movie. And if your driving home, there is no traffic because there are no idiots on the road.

Now that there is the description of a perfect vegas weekend. Keep in mind thats just the mood I have now and it could change tomorrow. But if I just experienced what I just said, I might goal would to have the perfect overseas trip. Maybe I'll think about that for the time being.

Like the Dos Equis "Most Interesting Man in the World" says... Stay thirsty my friends.
