Just do enough blow and the smell won't bother you anymore.

If you've never noticed the smell before your nose doesn't work, so you won't notice it now either.

I've always noticed that there was "something in the air" there... I never put 2 & 2 together to realize it's perfume - I always figured it was carpet cleaner, or something like that.

As it has already been pointed out, I will now be unable to go to the V without noticing it... thanks guys...

The smell in the Venetian is a little much, the weirdest thing is though that in the summer during the series the bathroom smelled atrocious every single day.

They have to use perfume because the sewage line outside leaks and the smell gets into the venetian somehow. It's very noticeable if you walk along the strip just west of it, outside of bellagio or venetian, whatever. Smells like absolute ****. They use the perfume to mask it. I don't mind it at all.

Go during AVN. The conventioneers aren't so bad then.

Randall, you could be anywhere in the world, but you're gonna choose to be there with him.

Amirite?

(saw him for the first time at the Palms before this year's WSOPME, and he's such an awesome performer).

sorry gavin, but it looks like i wont be needing any deadly weapons. someone PMed me to tell me that the crazy guy fled the state (prob running from the law) so there won't be any encounters.

that's good, i didnt wanna have to blast this guy in the face and ruin the tourney for everyone!

You friends with Matt238? You really can't have too many friends and he's a really nice, really large man.
