Weee! Just got back from Vegas and had a great time as usual, but with an added bonusâ¦first playing Marco polo with Beastie at the Mandalay Bay via cell phone, then finally meeting him in person.You all should know, Beastie isnât hairy as you may have imagined. In fact aside from the toupee, heâs completely hairless:oHeâs a great guy and he gave my gf and I a tour of Sin City before taking us to one of his favorite watering holes were we chatted over some cocktails about everything from RC, music, hobbies, careers. I was quite impressed with his musical knowledge and concert experiences, he knows his stuff.
We could have very easily stayed there and drank the night away, but I was anxious to get to the Stratosphere Tower to defy death on the scary rides 1120 feet above the Vegas strip. After the rides, we walked around the top of the tower and admired the beautiful city lights. While waiting for the elevator, Beastie haxxored the shooting gallery and we watched in awe of his true l33t sniper skill. We went downstairs for one more cocktail before heading back to our hotel.
Beastie then showed us a cool nightclub, the Rum Jungle and said goodbye. Iâm sure he would have stayed longer, but he had to work early the next morning. It was a very nice experience getting to meet a fellow RC player and quite a gentleman to boot. Thank you Beastie for taking time to hang out, it was a pleasure and I will be sure to call and hang out again the second I come back to the city that never sleeps.
Btw, not one minute after Beastie left, I spotted one of my favorite boxers, Arturo Gotti heading into the club! Wow what a treat. I also heard Mike Tyson was seen in the casino earlier that day. I guess itâs not uncommon to see lots of celebrities cruising around the hotel casinos on a big fight weekend.
