So this is how you do Vegas

[ViviTheMage]

whose is that? .. damn!

 

[Fear No Evil]

They couldn't comp the 8 bottles of FIJI @ $8 a piece. LOL.

 

[SunnyD]

hm.. 2 tip lines?!

The first "Gratuity" one is the line item. The second one is a subtotal item. They're the same thing, just shows up in two separate places on the slip.

The best part about this... that's RossMAN's bill. He used a coupon and ended up making $23.99 on the deal.

Who the fuck orders a Pellegrino at the club?

That said, there have been some wild reciepts from rich dudes who don't care. This is a pretty crazy one that was done by Roman Abramovich during a LUNCH at Nello's in NYC:

 

[Josh]

It is a 15 Liter bottle (a "Nebuchadnezzar") which is about 20 regular bottles of Veuve Cliquot Yellow Label. The regular list price of these is $2k, so the club which was charging $25k a bottle was profiting by $23k a bottle.

I've actually been at a club in NYC when someone ordered one of these at the table next to me. It was retardedly big. Need multiple people to pour it. Outrageous. Really outrageous.

 

[Regs]

Wow indeed! I'm sure the tip gets split into a general account.

Reminds me of those giant novelty margareta glasses chicks get on their birthdays.

 

[TheSlamma]

Man for that money just buy it at the LQ

 

[HopJokey]

LOL nice.

 

[Farmer]

I can't believe they had the nerve to charge $23,000 over market price on a $2K item.

As long as you're throwing it away, throw some my way.

 

[vi edit]

I'll never have enough money to worry about that kind of tab...but damn. An 8x-10x markup on costs. Sheesh. Hopefully they get tickets for a free breakfast buffet.

 

[Krynj]

No Steel Reserve?

 

[Imp]

$10 for beer. I'd walk a 24-pack home for the guy at that rate.

the bill does not shock me, the insane markup does seem a bit much however

also must have been a large group to down 60 liters of VC YL

Dobutful. More likely just a professional athlete or celebrity, or a few wall street dudes ballin' out (most likely not celebrity because they would be comp'ed a lot of this stuff just to show up). Sometimes it comes down to just buying it "for fun" as rediculous as that seems. The markups on those bottles are not meant to be for the alcohol, you are paying for the "exclusivity" of the club, to be at a VIP table, to be seen, to be "those guys". I wouldn't be surprised if it was just a pro athelete or a rich guy and a few of his friends celebrating something. Buy ton of bottles...drink probably not much of it (they were probably drinking the Fiji's, Red Bulls, etc)...and let all the groupies around you drink it.

I actually respect that, seriously. If I made millions each year this is exactly how I would spend some of it.

You don't need that much.

true however that still qualifies as a group, as well as a massive volume of booze

+1

If you've got that much disposable income, might as well use it.

They need to put a keg tap on it.

 

[dr150]

Shit, and I was fretting for spending $60 for dinner last week.

It'd be cheaper to hire a hot call girl than spend ridiculous amounts at some VIP Club to get some mediocre looking gold digging party hooch from the Lower East Side who balls 4 guys a week.

 

[purbeast0]

are we getting spidered again?

i wanna know wtf the story behind this is.

Oh definetly...but then you are technically "paying for sex". This way you can say you didn't hire a hooker. Less embarassing for some.

"Brooo last night was crazy. We copped so many bottles. Remember that brunette chick with the rack who I was dancing with? Yea we banged and I just kicked her out of my place after a morning BJ. Good times" instead of "Broo I paid some hooker to sleep with me last night"

 

[soulcougher73]

I barely remember that night. Was good times though. Didnt realize my receipt ended up online
