Richmond_Bills Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 LAMP It was our last night in Vegas and the wife and I were walking through the Forum shops at Caesar's and my wife says "I think that is Deion Sanders". I said no, he's walking all alone and no one is mobbing him. Sure enough, it was him - he was wearing a Tom Landry shaped hat and a very loud striped shirt. My wife (who hates him - long story - made some not so nice remarks one time about not liking Richmond when he was playing minor league ball and his wife was picked on or something) basically goes running up to him and says "hey Deion (we both shake his hand) can we get a picture?" He declined saying he was "on vacation too". He was nice about it and I respect the man being on vacation. I'm certainly no fan of Deion, but it is always cool to rub elbows of celebs. Also saw Pete Rose doing a signing. If you have never been to Vegas - YOU MUST GO. It was my third time (first in 6 years). Highlights: - the European (aka topless) pool at Caesar's - still can't believe the wife agreed to go - The Burger Bar at Mandalay Bay - Emeril's at MGM - Mesa Grill (Bobby Flay) at Caesar's - Fish Tacos for brunch - incredible - First ever massage - did a couples massage and couldn't believe how much it was going to cost before we did it - but worth every penny
cantankerous Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 Sounds like you had a great time. I gotta get to vegas someday...

Glad you had a great time, don't care about 9 toe.

Chef Jim Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 she did not go topless and there wer no cameras allowed in that pool area 707251[/snapback] Chicken. When we went to Australia years ago my wife wouldn't wait to go topless. Found myself in the ocean surrounded by young topless talent. Good thing the water was cold.

Chef Jim Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 But drink the same amount that Arthur did, no doubt. "Don't you hate Perry's wife?" 707270[/snapback] I used to. Have a great restaurant story about Dudley. Came in for lunch and left after dinner. We could put it in the book. Let's put it this way, Arthur was an autobiography. We could put it in the book. He used to drive an old white Bentley around town with the license plate Arthur1.

Richmond_Bills Posted June 13, 2006 Author Posted June 13, 2006 Camera phones? 707852[/snapback] we both have camera phones, but we didn't bring them down with us. they actually had some big dudes working security down there
Chef Jim Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 we both have camera phones, but we didn't bring them down with us. they actually had some big dudes working security down there 707853[/snapback] So they allow topless sunbathing but no cameras and have big dudes that bash your head in if you take pictures. I love our Puritan roots in this country.
