I was in Las Vegas a few weeks ago for the World Pizza Expo aka "good
excuse to go to vegas" expo. This town is full of celebrities as you
might expect. Many of them vacation there or perform, so I am
guessing it is not unusual to see them around.
In any case, the convention consisted of walking around the convention
center, stopping at hundreds of booths all catering to the pizza
industry. I ate so many samples I nearly made myself sick. The other
part of the actual convention is listening to speakers and attending
seminars. While my manager Bob and I waited for a particular speaker
to start, somebody walked around handing out flyers. I have attached
the flyer. It is for ELEKTRA ICE. Yes, carmen fucking elektra now
has her own energy drink! I mean, why wouldn't she have an energy
drink? She has proven her immense talent in other areas, it is just
fitting that her next project be an energy drink. I walked over to
her booth to find a huge crowd of gawkers taking pictures. She looked
like an animal in a cage at the zoo. She also was a lot smaller than
I'd imagined....
Also that week we had dinner at a middle eastern restaurant near the
UNLV campus and a good distance away from the strip. So you would
assume a good distance from the celebs. Not so.
The four of us had a great dinner with good conversation. As we were
finishing up we were distracted by a huge "screeeeeeeeeeee" noise.
The whole restaurant turned to see the commotion. At that point I
realized it was who else but Louie Anderson's fat ass shoving the
table away from him so he could stand up to leave. He moved so fast
all I saw was the gap in his teeth and his big square head hobbling
towards the door. The whole time he was ten feet from me and I didn't
even notice. Shame on me. We could have traded quotes from Coming to
America, or chatted about his time hosting Family Fued after the other
guy killed himself. Oh well.
I wondered why he would be in Vegas, and I googled it later to find
out he performs at the Excalibur hotel. I also found out he is suing
the very casino that he works at because he slipped on some chinese
food in the Excalibur food court and hurt himself. I'd pay to be a
juror for that case..
So long suckas,
