yeah, you would think. Shit, Vegas will comp you Bud Lights just for spending quarters on a slot. But $9 beers? crazy talk. Can almost get a 12-pack for that. But, as the saying goes, a fool and his money are soon parted.

Really, it's sad. I love a quote that they play on the radio around here, interviewer asks Charles Barkley what he would ask a potential draftee in an interview. Charles says "I'd ask if he plans on bringing an entourage with him. Can you imagine if you went to work at Microsoft and showed up with your cousins and friends? You'd look like a damn fool!"

Winston Churchill:
"Since light travels faster than sound, some people appear bright until you hear them speak."
"If you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty you have no brain."

LOL..yep.. and when see stuff like this( and maybe not this extreme, but 20K+ bills for others in VIP sections), its how these fools, despite making millions, quickly are broke, when they pay for their "possee" in these places..

God, this guy must be bipolar. Must be. I'm bipolar, and even I don't spend that kind of money in a manic mood.

I believe that those kinds of numbers are racked up by professional athletes and their entourages but more often than not those bills are racked up by rich folks that aren't celebrities. You know, middle eastern oil babies, american trust fund babies, foreign royalty.
It is the folks that I mentioned that have real money not like the dozens of millions a celebrated professional athlete has on hand.

Ok, i know this might come off as racist, but what the hell...there are stereotypes for a reason. Im not buying that excuse, mostly based on the list of stuff they bought:
Cristal
Dom P
Patron Platinum
Patron Gran Magnum
Grey Goose
Fiji
Red Bull
Bud Light
Combine all that, and it sounds straight out of a rap video. So to me, it sounds like a bill from either an athlete, rapper, or someone who desperately acts like one.

Oh no doubt!.. I worked on wall street, where every 200+ partner at my company made $40+ mill/yr, Just on their partnership bonus, and that was before whatever they earned for themselves..
BUT, we aren't paying/supporting those people, or paying money to watch them work- or IMO , being penalized by a "lockout"( and soon basketball will bejoining football after the finals ina lockout) that is directly affected by them complaining about finances, complaining about "needing more, because so many are bankrupt a few year after playing" blah blah...
And things like the arrogance of bills like that and flaunting the money- while in nex breath asking fans for higher ticket prices, higher jersey prices, higher sport packages on cable prices to support these lifestyles is why its different.
