How you live so large, man? Icehouse on tap at the Mermaids Casino, that’s how we do.
Kanu explained it best: “It’s like they had a lot of shitty beer, and just said ‘Hey, we can sell it if we just add more alcohol.’”
Enjoy your evening.
Orson Swindle and Stranko Montana are two men pushing thirty who should know better than to run a college football blog, but evidently don't. Both graduated from the University of Florida, and both agree that college football is far too important to be left to the professionals.

I suppose I shouldn’t even be mildly surprised, but are those video poker machines right there at the bar?

My guess is if you went further off the grid you might find Bud Dry on tap.
Why ask why?

That looks nothing like Mermaids. This whole Vegas thing is a sham. What a bunch of suckers.

The question is how much you paid for that?
Because if it was over 4 bucks…. man.

Yikes. Was there no special on Southpaw (Plank Road trifecta!)? And as someone headed to Vegas shortly, thanks to all for the recon by some degenerates I can trust.

Uggghhh, Icehouse….good beer is pretty hard to find in Vegas. But I’d give the nod to the brewpub at the Monte Carlo.

Ah, Icehouse, the beer that got me through college. That extra 1%-1.5% of alcohol per can really made a difference, and it didn’t have quite the sigma King Cobra or Olde English 800 malt liquor. I mean, c’mon, I have standards…

Step 1: Land at McCarran.
Step 2: Pick up rental car.
Step 3: Buy Beam and a shitload of beer at Vons.
Step 4: Check into LV Hilton.
Step 5: Fill laundry bags with ice, beer, and Beam.
Step 6: Go downstairs to the Barry Manilow Theatre.
Step 7: Place bets.
Step 8: Buy several $1 hot dogs.
Step 9: Enjoy games on 20′ x 20′ screens with theatre sound.
Repeat steps 5-9.
Vegas, baby, Vegas.

Cheapest beer I saw this weekend was 5 bucks Bud Select – but you had to buy 5 of them at a time in a bucket, from a hot waitress – so it ended up being more.

Kanu says:
Allahver Fist- No, sir. We drank Shithouse on tap in Vegas.
Oops Pow Surprise- even better: video poker machines embedded into the top of the bar itself.
now_a_hoo- that is my left hand on the right, and Swindle’s right hand on the left. Thanks for the compliment!
chum1- we are many things, but liars we are not. How about this- meet us there and we will buy Icehouse on tap and Volkov vodka and watch you drink it.
ThreenOut- $2.25. Holly paid in quarters.

Allahver Fist- also, we did not see Red Dog, but they do have Killian’s Irish Red on tap at Fitzgerald’s.

Holly says:
I paid in quarters because they’re HEAVY, man. Also, the bartender made fun of us.
Him: “You guys gonna drink those?”
Me: “YOU. WORK. AT. MERMAIDS.”

Nathan says:
I have no idea why that seemed such a good idea at the time. “ICEHOUSE ON TAP – OMG WE HAVE TO DO THAT!!” … after the five of us order one each, it takes about 3 sips until we realize what a horrible mistake we had made. It took me about 15 minutes to finish mine, it was basically undrinkable.
Best part … the bartender busting on us for drinking it … WHILE HE’S TENDING BAR AT A PLACE WHERE VOLKOV VODKA IS TOP SHELF.

@Nathan I still had mine until WELL after we’d left for Vegas Club. So gross.

Kanu: That’s basically what I was asking, except me no word good.
Holly: Paying in quarters seems almost too classy for House on tap.

Holly,
Were these the quarters you had b/c you messed up when cashing out your $20, ticket?

Man, O and Crew – had I been in town during your weekend, I’d have gladly met up with you and shown you around some of the shady places in vegas. You think Downtown is bad, you should try the “off-strip” tour. Vegas is a shit magnet for ‘merikas finest and classiest. We have strip joints like “The Tender Trap” ( I shit you not – ’tis the name) and classy bars like “The Rum Runner” where Icehouse is most certainly on tap, and quite possibly warm. The Double Down is a good place to sober up with some bad wisky and the worst college punk evar! Next time your spending TSN’s dime, head to those places to make your drank money last.
Viva, baby. Fuckin’ Viva.

Irwin Fletcher says:
The smell of certain beverages still makes me want to hurl to this day.
Icehouse is one ($4 pitchers at the Porpoise being the main culprit) and the good Captain Morgan with his wee beady eyes, his sweet rum, and even sweeter ’stache is the other.
I salute you sirs and madams.
How about a little Capt Morgan love on this fine Moustache Wednesday?

I was in Vegas in February for a few nights. Fremont street was….interesting….
Gambled at El Cortez for four hours playing $5 Blackjack. because the $3 table was full…
Ate at some diner that was actually cheap and awesome. Believe I suffered seizures walking through the covered neoned area.
Back to Bellagio, where they had the Chinese New Year thing going on in the garden area, with a giant effing rat staring at me.
First time in Vegas. Maybe the last. Drove to Zion National Park In UT for two nights, for a detox of the soul…highly recommended. Vegas, notsomuch.

PMcP -
I have to agree – vegas is a draining experience, watching endless hordes of zombies push buttons on their card wielding adventure machines (MMMMMM BRAAAAiiiiinnn….. SSSSLLLLLLOOOOOTTTTSSS!) is exhausting even for someone who has lived here for 18 years. What’s kept me sane while living here the abundance of great places to get away and feel alive. Red Rock Canyon, Mt Charleston, Brian Head, Lake Mead (great islands to camp on, even more so w/ the drought), Zion (hike The Narrows – you’re in a canyon and you get to hike in a river at points), Bryce, Beaches of San Diego…. everything is all withing a half day’s drive. Vegas is fun, but leaving it is more fun.
