    I think the fact it says Las Vegas at the top of the receipt gives it away that its $9?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 714 ✭✭✭Smyth


    Starts off so classy. 100k bottle of champagne. Then it descends into Redbulls and Heineken. A good night.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators, Help & Feedback Category Moderators Posts: 9,808 CMod ✭✭✭✭Shield


    How is it 9 bucks for a Red Bull and then up the receipt it's 50 bucks for a Red Bull split?

    i was wondering where i left that receipt

    Jokes on them.

    I spent just €7.25 on six Bavaria.

    Bavaria, and listening to The War Of The Worlds and sucking on some Lucky Strike, while posted on boards..and enjoying my own company.

    What more could a man want?

    Jokes on you.

    Tuborg is €6 for 6 cans and is ****ing lovely, especially after the 2nd or 3rd.

    sometimes it has to be strained through a coffee filter to get rid of the free "bits" but its a small price to pay.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,432 ✭✭✭df1985


    Good old las vegas prices. Guys at the table next to us had 25k champagne bottles dropped to their table from the ceiling on a zip line with fireworks attached.

    We just couldnt compete with that!

    you obviously never heard of bottle service http://www.lavishvegas.com/bottle_service.htm

    wynn has $100,000 bottles of champagne on its bottle service menu

    I like the "especially after the 2nd or 3rd" as if to say the first and perhaps second are barely drinkable.

    I used to drink that stuff years ago, but found it to be very fizzy...is it the same?

    Better than the Dutch though, that **** was flat the second I opened it!

    TSZZZZZZZzzzzzz......yep it's flat.

    Well right now, an old fashioned would do nicely.

    honestly, the first usually tastes pretty nasty, but then its all WIN.

    Its pretty fizzy i guess, but still in acceptable levels.
    We always have this debate while drinking it, but i stand by it, tuborg is better than Bavaria, Carlsberg, Heineken, Dutch Mould, Stella and most others.

    If you've ever poured a can of "Excelsior" (Lidl beer, currently on special 8 500ml cans for €5) you'll see how fizzy a beer can get. that thing makes its own head and doesnt stop for 5 min or 5cm, whichever comes last.

    That stuff doesnt get good till you hit the 4th or 5th, but it works pretty well.

    Wynn / Encore are the best places to stay in Vegas

    The guy who owns them "Steve Wynn" is a vegan and all 18 restaurants in the hotel have vegan options.

    I was in a club in London where some of the chelsea football players go a couple of years ago. (A friend of my ex took us there he was friends with the head of security). We were sat in the VIP section and he gave me the wine list. One of the bottels of champagne cost 29,000 pounds sterling!

    The guy who took us is French Algieren and said that one night he was in there talking to one of the French players and he bought a bottle and gave him a drink from it. Said it tasted no better then a 100 pound bottle.

    Some people have more money then they know what to do with.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 949 ✭✭✭LoanShark


    Can't believe in the last nine posts not one person has talked about all the flange in the photos of that club.....so I will, They are nothing more than a bunch of half dressed drunken hussies...







    I wish I was there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,244 ✭✭✭sdanseo


    It looks like they actually took the tip twice. Still, I'm sure whichever millionaire was paying the bill didn't notice.

    Also, did they tax the tip, too? :P

    I love when they add the service charge and then leave a blank gratuity line hoping you don't notice. Grrrrrrr

    I'd hate to be the person that had to pay for that round, but knowing 'merica its probably a typical tab for the jersey shore crew :pac:

    Thats not even massive for Vegas, the hostesses in the Playboy club get cars bought for them and their college fees paid by high rolling clients. drinks were $12 in the club I went to, so we were going out to the casino floor, sticking a couple of bucks in a slot machine and getting free drinks out there :D

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 845 ✭✭✭yupyup7up


    for fuck sake, why would anyone spend that much?

    most i ever spent was €240 in a nightclub in the space of 4 hours on myself.

    you want a cheap and very drunken night out then go to Newcastle!

    £5 for a double vodka, double jager and redbull!:D

    They had no choice but to pay the tip. Its 15% in Vegas. They actually paid 59,162 in tips though :D First 15% was mandatory the 2nd was just crazy :D

    Fair play to ye for actually adding it up :D I just presumed the first tip was added in :D

    what a $hit receipt for a uber expensive place.
    I was thinking the exact same thing.

    I am all for having a great time in Vegas or wherever, but FFS the measure of a good night shouldn't be based on how much you spend, which seems to be the bottom line in places like this. Some of the financially richest people I know believe that once you have enough money to live securely, you are numb to anything beyond that. I really doubt that the people who clock up those sort of bills in Vegas are genuinely enjoying themselves more than any of us with a few cans around the people we really care about.

    Looks like a FAS night out :p
