Since it's a place where they play and act up (like the rest of us). Have you ever seen anything out of the ordinary???


I'll start.


During his pre-marriage days (2001 I think) I came out of the Rum Jungle around 4:30 in the morning. I see a craps table surrounded by a few dozen people. I thought it was a fight or someone had a heart attack. Who do I see? TIGER WOODS. The funny thing was I saw him shooting at a reserved table flanked by 3 blondes on each side. He had his whiskey going and double racked with purple and yellow chips.

At the time I thought it was odd only because I've only seen him with wearing his P's & Q's during the tourney's. So it blew my mind to see him in a black leather jacket with all the bling and the bitches you'd think he was a rap star if you didn't know who he was.

I remember seeing Patty Duke drunk and fall off of a chair playing blackjack at the Sahara.

Tiger WHO?

I saw Roger Clemens playing at a table at the Palms at 2:AM LV time last year

He started an afternoon game in St. Louis the next day and not only won the game, but shut them down completely.

Darryl Strawberry cutting in front of me in line at the Ceasers Palace gift shop to pay for a few items..........told him to hit the back of the line.

Richard Gere telling me to fuck off.

Redd Foxx singing at 3am at a stoplight.

Rodney Dangerfield stumbling out of Ballys half crocked at 3am.

Seeing Art Schlichter betting and sweating a $25,000 horse parlay.

Seeing and hearing Jimmy Walker yell CHA-CHING, CHA-CHING at the Stardust after winning a baseball wager(which was quite often).

Having David Copperfield yell at me "get that guy outta here"!

Watching Steve Wynn buy in for a million dollars at the old Castaways and proceed to lose about two-thirds of it and than toke the remainder to the dealers and staff.

Those are few that come to mind, have many others.

Was on the set of Breathless that Gere was acting in(at the old Landmark Casino, opening scene of movie) and he was being an ass to others so I mentioned to my buddy what an asshole he was and he overheard me...........fuck him. Total jerk.

Copperfield has a secret building in Vegas where he houses tons of magic memorbilia, including a lot of original Houdini stuff.........a girl from his production staff took me there and he was there.......long story.

Thought Phil gave up the gamble after his wife gave birth to their last daughter. Something about quitting in the child was delivered safely. Now we've just got to get Tiger and John at a table together.

You should have told him to go stick a gerbil up his ass.

From what I've heard and interviews I've seen Gere seems like a real jerk. Good thing the RX crew wasn't there Fish, Gere the jackass would have been rushed. Still like those stories of you getting kicked out of the Las Vegas Posse games.

The POSSE were part of the CFL for one short year.

Basically, tried to ambush the press box and ask David Humm if he could give the mic so I could show my displeasure for Ron Meyer, the coach at the time for the Posse.

Had been to every POSSE home game up to that time, as well as watching all their road games on TV, and this guy literally cost the team 4+ games with his ignorant decisions time after time after time to the point where I couldnt take it any longer.

Oh. it was cooler the way i imagined it. I thought getting kicked out of the Las Vegas Posse games were like you playing poker with a gang...and they kicked you out for winning too much.
