Classic line...

In the absence of a piece of cake I resorted to saying a variety of words

Classic!

1) Excellent report so far!
2) What there is another Tom Gorman!?
3) Who is this Tom Gorman??

I'm going in Oct with the lads from Manchester, UK. Looking forward to it and getting loads of info from these reports. Think Wet will be closed which is a bit of a bummer though!

I'm hoping Tom Gorman will hook up his namesake for no other reason than there cant be many Tom Gormans in the world!

Thomas Gorman is a host at Wet Republic

Tuesday 7th June - Chateau
So we are sat in Blondies in the Miracle mile shops watching both the rather gorgeous servers (and having a heated debate on which of them was the hottest) and Dirk Diggler school Lebron and the rest of the Miami Heat in Game 4 of the NBA finals. We'd all been pretty hammered the night before so the drinks were not flowing as easily. We'd spent the Monday drinking by the MGM pool followed by a bit of a bar crawl down the strip ending at Carnival Court, which was surprisingly good fun and where the drinks were very very strong! I'd also met up with the NY girl from XS again there which meant I didn't get much sleep afterwards either..........

Anyway so the game ended and we ended up deciding to have a wander. Strategically I led the pack towards the Paris hotel as I remembered it was the industry night at Chateau so I hoped the sight of some hot girls queing to get in would shake off any cobwebs/tiredness from the night before and encourage the lads to wanna party the night away in Chateau. This plan worked like a charm and the sight of sexy ladies in tight cocktail dresses seemed to galzanise people into action. The general admission queue was not big at all and moving so that was an option to getting in. However we ended up stopping at a casino bar near chateau for a drink and after talking to the server, she provided us with wristbands that got us in straight away with no cover!

As Chateau is new I was interested to see what it was like. I wasn't impressed with the inside area at all. It was very crowded and visually nothing to look at. To me it looked like they had just quickly and cheaply converted a spare room at the Paris into a nightclub by sticking a few lights around the place. Maybe I was just spoiled by XS but to me they couldn't compare. In it's credit the bars and toilets were very easy to get to.

Outside on the patio was much better. Much more spacious with a huge accessible bar. Great views of the Bellagio fountains and the surrounding strip plus hot dancing girls (including one who was rumoured to be a transvestite! Much debate was had whether you "would" with her/him). We spent most of the night out here.

Whereas Tao and XS had a female/male ratio split of approx 60:40, the general feeling was that Chateau was 40:60 and hence was deemed by some as a "cockfest". Many of the hotties seen outside had been drawn to the tables like moths to the flame and the only girls left to chat up seemed to be "escorts". After chatting up a few hot girls only to discover they would require payment, I soon settled on a girl who looked a mixture of Lady Gaga and Amy Winehouse. However after a good 10 minutes talking with her, she soon dropped the bomb that any services tonight were going to cost me more than a couple of drinks. I was shocked to say the least as she was nowhere near hot enough to make a living in that line of work. I think she saw the shocked look on my face and proceeded to halve her rates immediately. I told her no thanks and headed back to the safety of my mates, who apparently all knew she was a pro and thought I had lost the plot.

The rest of the night consisted of drinking and dancing. I gave up chatting up girls. There was some bikini contest that we all went to help judge inside by shouting and whooping for all the hot girls as they danced and answered the inane questions of the host. All were winners in my eyes!

We left at approx 3am. I intended to give my NY girl a call once I was back in the room but as soon as my head hit the pillow I was out for the count.

I'm unsure how to rate Chateau. Despite the night being both a cockfest and a whorehouse I did have a fun night once a few drinks had been devoured. As I previously said the club itself is nothing to rave about but the patio area gets a thumbs up from me and with a bit more refining I think they could have something really good at Chateau. It just lacked the "X factor" to make it that something special.


Wednesday 8th June - Studio 54
My first experience of being out in Vegas alone ended up here. I will explain.

Initial plan was to go to Surrender or LAX and i'd text a few hosts regarding a variety of options from bottle service to a walk in. However when it came to the crunch the guys started to back out. Some were playing poker at the Rio, some were playing craps at the Wynn and some were in bed already, struggling after last night in Chateau. I was not impressed however I thought I will go out and play some craps, have a few drinks and see if there are any hot girls to chat up.

So i'm in the MGM shooting the dice and a get talking to an Aussie couple, Chris and Rachel. After explaining the rules of craps they join in and we all had fun profiting from a hot streak of some guy on the table. We had a few drinks in the bar afterwards and as we got drunker and drunker, talk soon turned to nightclubs. I suggested LAX as it is near to the MGM but grabbing my phone ready to text a host I soon realised it was 1:30am and any chance of a walk in was now probably gone (or at least the price will have gone up massively). By chance a Studio 54 promoter walked past and handed Rachel some free passes and the decision was made to enter the Tier Z establishment known as Studio 54. I was fairly hammered by now so I was actually up for it just to see if it was as bad as I had previously imagined.

Getting in was easy enough with the free passes. Getting drinks was easy too as the bar wasn't that busy. Finding a female (aside from Rachel) was impossible, this place was wall to wall full of blokes. As soon as we walked in, I felt 1000 eyes aim in our direction as Rachel was a hottie and as far as I could see the only female in here. Whilst she was off limits for me (as Chris was a good guy) I feared for her safety should she get separated from me and Chris.

Almost straight away some prick walked up to Chris and told him Rachel was "a 2 out of 10". This made my blood boil as it was completely false and he was obviously just looking for a fight. Without using the exact words I said, I told this guy that he was a rude, overweight excessive masturbator and if he wanted to keep insulting my friends then I would have an issue with this. Before this situation could escalate 3 huge bouncers came over, separated me and the prick and dragged him out. Speaking to the bouncers they told us he had been looking to kick off with someone all night so they were happy to remove him. Still not a nice start to the night.

As you can imagine the club wasn't too busy and I saw lots of reserved tables but no-one actually sat down. I even offered a passing host $150 for a bottle of vodka at a dancefloor table and I swear he looked like he was going to say yeah for one minute.

The night was spent drinking with Chris, helping Rachel fend off a variety of dudes and attempting to find a female. I thought I saw one on the dancefloor but she was surrounded by blokes who were circling her like sharks around a seal pup. The didn't dare continue to look at what was soon to be a massacre.

We left at 4:30am as the club was closing. All 3 of us were completely wrecked and I do have vague memories of suggesting a threesome which were considered briefly before being rejected. Not a clue how I made it back to my room but do know (thanks to my mate who I woke up) that I attempted to jump onto the bed only to misjudge it and instead bounce off the side. I still have a bruise on my knee over a week later thanks to this attempted stunt.

I only have one piece of advice regarding Studio 54 - don't go unless you are way too drunk to care about anything!


That is the end of my Vegas stories for this Forum on my 2011 trip. Many thanks to JC and everyone on this forum whom helped me plan the trip. As the title of the TR says I LOVE VEGAS and intend to be back in 2012.

lmao at Tier Z. Studio 54 sounds awful

[Elcrusho716]

Just come back from 10 days in Vegas (31st May to 10th June) - had an absolute blast. In our little group there were a variety of motives we were going to Vegas - think a mix of poker, nightlife, poker, craps, fine eating, poker and the pursuit of women with zero morals. For the purpose of this forum I'm only going to post trip details about the nights/days I think people on JC would be interested in (i.e - nightclubs/dayclubs/stripclubs). I'm sure a long post about a suckout on the river, a crazy run at the craps table or some fine lobster paired with a 1973 Bordeaux at a Wolfgang Puck restaurant would not be best suited to this forum, so I'll just detail the good stuff.

Thursday 2nd June - Sapphires
We'd been up for 33 hours straight since landing, indulging in plenty of drink, when a decision was made at 5:30am to go out nightclubing. Numerous text later and we discovered everywhere was shut, including Drai's and Artisan. The next logic step was a stripclub. A few text later and at 6:30am a limo was waiting outside to take us to Sapphires. Driver was a brilliant fun guy called Vinny and he ensured we got walked in with no cover and immediately the vultures decended. Each one of us soon had a lovely lady sat on our lap, promising the earth and more for a price. Being as we were literally the only customers in the entire establishment all talk of the VIP room was soon squashed as privacy was not an issue. However talk soon turned to drink and a decision was made to get bottle service. So at 7:00am approx the vodka was brought over to the table and we soon started tucking in, all whilst the dances started and our respective ladies each whispered sweet nothings into our ears (or more accurately something along the lines of "Can we go back to your hotel. For $1,000 I'll f**k you silly".)

Flashforward 6 hours and I found myself alone at the table, doing shots with a couple of strippers. The remaining lads had disappeared, either to the VIP room, the toilet to "freshen up" or back to the hotel with a lady in tow. By this point the girls around me had realised I would not be partaking in their extra services, not due to a fine moral code you understanding but due to excess drunkeness, so they were more interested in finishing off the vodka. I tried to make a joke about "bottle whores" but all that came out my mouth was incoherent babble. They both looked at me with a mixture of fear and wonder - I suspect they thought I was fluent in some form of Arabic language. I was suddenly raised from my seat by my remaining friend who insisted it was time to "get the hell outta Dodge." I put up zero resistance and was ushered into a limo back to the hotel. Emerging from a stripclub into broad afternoon daylight sure makes you feel like a degenerate. Once back at the MGM I finally slept in Vegas, comfortable in the knowledge that I had tested the vodka for breakfast theory and concluded it was not part of a healthy diet.

To comment on Sapphires would be unfair as my extreme drunken state meant that everything seemed awesome and any girl I would have talked to would be a perfect 10. I will say the venue seemed huge and the limo drivers at both ends were really great guys.

Thursday 2nd June - Tao
Woke up at approx 7pm and was soon in the shower, attempting to wash away the smell of stripper. By 9pm we were away in a cab to Tao for some excellent sushi and some beers to try get our head back in the game. Using a trick from the forum we fluttered our pretty eyelashes and asked our server for a stamp to get into the club. This worked a treat and approx 10 mins after paying the bill we were being taken upstairs to the nightclub. The venue is awesome and, dancefloor excluded, not as crowded as I had anticipated. There were hundreds of hot ladies and I struggled to concentrate on a particular one as more and more seemed to walk by. Drink prices were not too bad either and getting served was fairly quick so I was soon tucking into my customary screwdrivers.

Spent the night talking to various girls and using my English accent to full effect. Made out with a few girls and ended the night in the Palazzo where I was doing very well with an Arizona hottie before her friend came back and proceeded to provide the biggest cockblocking i've ever experienced! When she got into the bed with us my initial thought was "threesome time" but instead she decided to completely change the mood till I was informed I had to leave as she was tired. I got the number of the hottie and she apologetically led me out the door. It was a long walk back to the MGM...............

Overall though I loved Tao and, aside from some stuck up ladies who zero-ed in on the bottle service area, all girls in there were friendly and most definitely hot. Club was busy but not crazy busy so you couldn't get to a bar/toilet/hot girl easily. I'd go there again in a heartbeat.

Still to come - Wet Republic, Table at XS with other JCers, Chateau and more

Amazing - was her cockblocking friend hot at least?

Mate get it written! You guys will have some tales worth sharing with the JC forum!

Can't wait to go back in 2012 - looking already at hotels and which clubs I wanna hit up

[SelfMade]

It would seem that bottle service is the staple of these trip reports. I used to believe Americans couldn't take much alcohol but I might have to reevaluate that sentiment.

Nice write up, starting a trip to Vegas by being up 40+ hours straight is quite hardcore.

Good stuff...enjoyed each installment.

I don't think Americans can drink more than us Brits but they can still put it away! We are all behind the Russians, they drink like monsters!!
