So I arrived Saturday evening about 8. Was tired so I stayed in the truck, watched a little TV then went to sleep.
On my way in Saturday I was on I-515 but, got diverted onto Eastern Ave due to a major crash. As I passed a Lowes I saw 5 hookers working their parking lot. One would think they would be a bunch of snaggle-toothed meth heads. But, not these ladies. All very shapely. All of them obviously spent time in the gym. They were all wearing stiletto heels with short spaghetti strap dresses.
After I delivered on Sunday afternoon I decided to park my truck and head into town instead of going north to St. George since it’s only a two hour drive and I wouldn’t have to be there until Monday at 14:00. So I catch an Uber to the 4 Queens so I can start my evening with a drink and a cigar at their cigar bar that everyone talks about.
On the way there we pass a naked guy walking down the road. Ok this is going to be interesting.
So I make it to the casino where the bar is located and hop out. People everywhere. Cool this should be fun. I turn the corner and I see this nice looking lady wearing a g-string and pasties buying a drink at the sidewalk bar. Yep, this is really going to be fun and interesting.
So I go up to the cigar bar and get a drink. Didn’t stay though. Too small for my tastes. Besides by now I’m thinking the real sights are going to be on Fremont St. So off I go.
This place is like Bourbon St. on steroids minus the strip clubs. Not to worry there were plenty of scantily clad ladies for one to have their picture taken with. Plenty of street performers and a few stages with various acts. So I walked up and down Fremont then decided to Uber over to the strip to check it out.
I got out at the Mandalay Bay figuring I would make my way back north. That was a mistake. For the first 1/4 mile I could have counted the number of people I saw on my fingers and toes. Eventually, I started running into more people when I got to New York New York. By now I’m getting hungry so I start looking for a place to eat. Looked in a few places but, the prices are all as high as giraffe nookie. Plus, it seems pretty tame. So I decided to head back to Fremont.
I get back downtown and decide to hit Tony Roma’s for the $10.99 steak and lobster special. Big fuqqin mistake. The steak was way under cooked. I ordered it M-R. It was pretty much raw and cold. The lobster was under cooked and cold. The baked potato and mixed veggies were cold as well. But, who the hell complains about an $11 surf and turf. Besides who was I going to complain to. I only saw my server twice. Once when she took my order and once when she brought the check. The busboy took my drink order, brought my drink and brought my meal. First time in my life I didn’t leave a tip. As a rule I will leave at 20% for the most basic service. Then 25 and up for better service.
By now the band-aid on my left heel that was covering the blister I got earlier had fallen off and I was getting tired. It’s about 23:30 so I Uber back to my truck.
Maybe one day I’ll plan a 3-5 day trip, get a room, rent a car and check out more of the attractions. But, I’ll never go back to T R’s.
