  1. Boris will be out here Saturday Night @ Empire but won't be playing at that pool party @ the Palms - I've seen the party info but that must be a different Boris - he is heading back to NY after empire for a gig sunday night

  2. You should have told your gf to give out hand jobs while serving cocktails. She would have made a killing in tips.

    Your right - she probably would have - but I figured with your mother in town whoring herself out all weekend to the all ballers and NBA crowd that the $$ probably wouldn't be as good. Can't even fathom how much her holes were stretched out when she finally came back home to Jersey - that plane ride must have been a bitch!

  3. My experiences were the exact opposite. The staff at OPM received record tips, records bottle sales, record covers and record turnouts for four straight nights. And not one incident to report.

    I did, however, hear stories describing how many people in the service industry found it challenging to "service that crowd."

    I've always said it. Many people fear what they don't understand. Most of the local club industry knows how to service the Paris Hilton fans of the world. However, it's an often misunderstood scenario when servicing the "Lil Scrappy" crowd!

    On top of that, communications can be misunderstood, especially coming from the "ballers" crowd. Many come off as rude, when in fact all they really want is to be treated like a VIP. Those people are willing to hook up the staff who understand their preferred elevated level of service.

    And of course, respect is a big thing. The initial communication may come off as a little sharp around the edges, however it's really a test, and anyone who can pass that test enjoy a profitable situation right away.

    I was really wanting to hear your feedback b/c I figured who would know better than MW - especially in a club atmosphere. I imagine things were nutz and your club and it was probably one of the best weekends you could possibly have. I think those who were in town to spend $$ and have a good time did so w/ respect and class. It was those who weren't willing to dish out a little extra (for that rare experience to party with the superstars) that were the problems.

    From what I witnessed outside the clubs, so many people expected free drinks in the casinos whether they were gambling or not, something the girls can get in trouble over. Either that or someone playing would try to order drinks for themselves and 8 other people. And when you tried to explain that to people that you can't do that- watch out - they were ready to chase you down and fight or degrade the people (in this case waitresses) until they were ready to cry or take a sick out and leave for the night. Most of these people outside the clubs wanted to be treated like a VIP - not even willing to give up a single dollar for a tip or ask nicely for something they wanted for free.

    Its good to hear positive things happened in the clubs though - I would hope that people were there to have a good time, spend $, and spread a positive vibe. Who were some of the big names that passed through OPM?? I would imagine there were a TON

  4. What did everyone think? Good? Bad? How were the clubs? Any interesting stories from some of the big names or players in town? Interested to hear what went on

    My girlfriend does cocktails at Mandalay and from that point of view, there was nothing but bad things to say about the weekend and rude/low class people in the hotel and casino. I was up there Saturday - and the way I saw some of these girls treated was god awful. Verbal and physical sexual harassment, constant degrading and name calling, threats and near physical activity for not serving drinks even if they weren't gambling, one of the waitresses was assaulted by a male customer - not good stuff.

    I'm hoping there are a few good stories out there to go along with the bad - Its a shame that what should have been such a positive for the city didn't turn out so well IMO.

  5. I've been hearing from quite a few people that this Sunday will be the last Rehab party - not just for the year - but forever.

    A few people who worked at the HR when I stayed last sunday night told me that - and I also heard from a few locals who usually know what their talking about

    Apparently its way too much of a fire hazzard - too many problems - and the new ownership

    Anyone have input on this? No matter how many other pool parties pop up, I doubt anything will be as nutz as the HR as been these last 3 years

  6. The confusion on Saturday night with presales was Empire had 2 parties on sale from wanttickets. They gave me a hard time when I got there too - we had tickets for the Rubber party (John Huntington's party before afterhours) - and they said they weren't honoring them - only for Late Night @ Empire w/ Boris.

    We were lucky and got it straightened out - but I'm sure there were a ton of people that got screwed - anyone who knows these people should have them contact their credit card company immediately.

    I would have paid double to get in though - Boris fuckin rocked that room!!
