can i go back to Vegas now?

So Vegas. I know it's hard to believe that I would like a city that is also known as "Sin City," but let me tell you. I want to go back now. I want to go and parade around the strip and drink all day and night and be fabulous. However, I don't want to live there because, no offense to anyone who lives there, but I don't own enough basketball jerseys. I swear everyone I met from Vegas was wearing a basketball jersey. It was interesting. I wish my trip had been longer, and I wish my camera hadn't decided to give up on life half way through St Patty's day.

St Patty's Day, ps, is one of my top favorite days of the year - and I'm pretty sure this was the best one.. yet.

I don't have a vry long time to write, so instead of telling a whole long story, I'll just give you some highlights as to why I love Vegas.

  • Vegas. Because We Can.
  • You can walk around with alcohol no matter where you are.
  • You can leave a bar and not have a bouncer yelling at you to throw away your beer before leaving.
  • They have 3 foot long drinks.
  • You can jump onto a construction site to make the manager take a picture with you.


  • You can get construction workers to show their booobies.. even if after they do it, you immediately regret telling them to.

I'll show you mine if you show me yours. Only no I won't.
  • Bouncers believe you when you lie and say you paid the $20 cover but then ripped off the bracelet because you were bored and give you a new one, thus saving you $20.
  • You won't get kicked out of a bar when you pull a shot of Jameson from the bottle the bartender lent you to take a St Patty's Day picture with.
  • You can rip endless amounts of Irish Car Bombs with your waitress.

If you go to Vegas and to NY NY, do not challenge Karen
in a car bomb chugging contest. You will lose. No matter how
many times you play. Trust me. I played a lot.

  • You can do inappropriate things in public with people you barely know...

  • You can do inappropriate things in public with your best friends....
  • You can talk to anyone and not be misconstrued as a crazy.
  • You can start drinking at 9 in the morning.
  • There are lots of things to take pictures in front of!

This is an ad for Jose Cuervo. Well played, Jose. Well played.
  • You can wear your sunglasses at night, with your pj's in your hotel casino because you're drunk and leaving tomorrow and still get hit on.
  • You can learn new accents and phrases (Wicked Pissa, for instance, means around the same thing as "a lot" according to Boston)
  • There are drunk old people.
  • 2 words: Tuxedo. T-Shirt.

Considering it's the only place I've been to in the US (Miami coming up in June though, yay!), then I probably have a pretty warped view of the country I suspect. Also, I couldn't get anything in those plastic things with the straws that I fancied (at least in the place I went to). Fortunately there were plenty of other things to drink.

Would have been fun to be there for St. Paddy's day.
