    wow! NY gets a bad rap for racism being rampant but its all really contrived.

It seems well known if you are hooked up, or open your wallet you'll get in, no matter what you look like
    I think it was clearly just a case of not having hookups, and NOT opening your wallet.....I dont care what race, color or creed you are, if you open your wallet youre getting in. but I also wasnt there so Im just speaking hypothetically.

    Its also funny that you mentioned this happened at Tryst, because a lot of peeps on the forum have said there are alot of asians at XS. Considering their sister companies, AND they share their host, it doesnt make sense.

    Thats my point. It was fairly obvious that people who waited in the queue would EVENTUALLY be allowed in, but these indians/asians were being made to wait a LOT longer. And naturally they were getting more & more frustrated as they saw others being let in behind them

    Vegas is the one place Ive never noticed racism. I even asked Nassau if he had ever experienced it in Vegas, and he said NO. In Houston, this happens at almost every club.

    In Vegas they pick people out of lines all the time. Ive never noticed it being based on race though.

    Style wasn't great tbh, but acceptable & average. Plenty of people who were let through (mostly whites) were on par with these guys.
