| - 4 stars for Pacquiao beating Marquez in their 3rd battle last March (St. Patrick's Day Weekend too) and helping us all win on our bets that we threw down. He knocked him out in one round, but the fight was pretty damn even, but he took the decision. Holl-er at a Filipino! APL was all up in the ring singing BEBOT BEBOT before the fight as Pacquiao's entrance song and we were all gettin hella hyphy since they gave us 2 free Jack & Cokes at the bar outside for signing up for MGM Players Cards. We saw Mike Tyson outside roll through with some hoeskis, some Filipino actor that some of my friends knew who he was, and Sugar Shane Mosley.
I thought it was hilarious that when Pacquiao got the knock out we started jumping all over the place and fob dudes straight from the PI that my friend sold 2 of his tickets to were like giving us all high 5's and 1 of my friends came back to his seat with a bag of popcorn out of no where. I was hoping he would've came back with some nachos, red vines, and a couple cups of beer too. There was too much pandemonium and chaos in the building. MEXICANS vs. FILIPINOS...I thought it was about to get ugly.
I thought it was funny when 2 of my friends almost got kicked out by the security cops for smoking a cigar inside when they escorted them out of our seats and made them stand against a wall in the hallway.
COP - "SO...ARE YOU GUYS SMOKING THE DOPE?"
FRIENDS - "NO OFFICER, WE WERE JUST SMOKING A CIGAR."
COP - "ARE YOU SURE? ... ALRIGHT. JUST REMEMBER THERE'S NO SMOKING INSIDE THE EVENT CENTER."
Haha...I think they had some on them too...LOL!
Minus 1 star for 17 year olds that look like they're 21 and the plethora of Mexican Cowboys and all the old Titos, Titas, Lolos, & Lolas in the building. Thought there would've been a lot more 20 something year olds in the crowd, but the old folks brought some energy with them too.
They kind of charged a lot for souvenirs here too. Kudos to all the people slanging bootleg fight night shirts around Vegas on the weekends of big fights.
