[x] greyhound before the rungood
Friday the 5th of September.
Shared the same flight with a DJ for marquee that my buddy used to work with years ago in San Francisco. He tells us to stop by marquee that night if we can.
4 of us arrive in Las Vegas. We head to passenger pick up and are picked up by 3 more of the team in this very comfortable and spacious soccer mom van. We head to the encore to drop 1 off to meet with the rest of the team then proceed to mgm grand to check in.
We were offered one of the more tower suites as an upgrade but opted for the regular queens bed room with a view because we needed a smoking room.
Me and the homie decided to head to Mandalay bay around 1030pm to get into Light assuming everyone will meet us there later. While inside, we did a quick loop, get our stamps for re-entry and head straight for the paigow tables to wait for the rest of the presale ticket party.
Get a greyhound and sit at 15$ paigow. Within an hour, I'm up 300 thanks to quad 6's. Both of us drunk from in room drinking and table drinking, we get a call from the team saying they are going to surrender instead...

Hours earlier: we shared our flight to Las Vegas with the DJ for marquee. By homie knows him and asked if he was djaying this weekend. He said yes and for us to come by....
Fast forward... After the light nightclub was a bust..
Me and the team mate grab a cab to cosmopolitan. Walk straight to the first security guy with a ear piece and tell him we are with the DJ. After a few brief minutes and confirmation from the electronic device in his ear, we show our IDs and are given a slip for 2 comp admission. Sweet. We walk outside and head directly to the DJ booth where we are greeted by DJ Romeo. He showed great hospitality and offered us anything on his table. I'm in constant communication with Lawzag, tell him to hop in the cab and meet us. I instruct him to do what we did. Lawzag is nothing but positive energy. Wish I had more drogas to keep up.
Out view from the VIP:
After hours of drinking, I find myself being woken up by the DJ and my homie as I am passed out in the chandelier bar outside of marquee. So that's what it's like to be only on alcohol and weed in Vegas...

The Sunday morning.
Everyone in our mgm room is feeling less than average except 1 who spent the whole day bedridden, getting up only to throw up. We rotate 2 blunts before heading downstairs for comfort food.
Chicken nuggets in my McDouble and fries. First time eating McDonald's all year.
I hit the tables and proceed to lose only 300$ after 3 hours of 50$ blackjack. Fast forward to night time...
I grease the head security manager who I've went through with before a 20$ bill and me and a buddy skip the line and walk straight in to hakkasan. The rest of the team go in with presale tickets and the table service we have for a bachelor party we celebrate.
Our table is on the 3rd deck overlooking the main room.
It started with 2 bottles... By the time the headliner came on, the best man and fellow team drogas teammate purchased 2 more.
Sometimes I forget how easy it is to invite girls over with a simple greeting. Having a great view and alcohol helps... But being nice is a big deal.
My flight is at 6:30am. I'm afraid I will sleep and miss my flight. We leave the club at 4, I pack, and stay awake while half the group goes to Drais and the other half pass out in order to recharge for another night in Vegas.
I leave the room, remind the team not to touch anything in the refrigerator and proceed to the elevator.
Someone left their chicken cutlets on the floor of the elevator.
I make my flight. 6 more days till the mayweather fight weekend...
To be continued.

(It's been a long September. Got back from 12 hour Portland trip this past Monday after an open bar at a wedding the night before.)

Run,
Get a check up/full physical after this month is over for general wellness sake.
I NEED pics of that Bellagio Penthouse. My living vicariously through Team Drogas month will not be complete without it.
Hakkasan gives me claustrophobia just looking at it... yet I survived Haze and want to do it again Nov 1?!?
Smart move staying up for the flight, I would of gambooled on the way out the door but that urge subsides when you know you're back at the end of the week
