| - I moved to Las Vegas in 1998. I had read about the Double Down from some book I bought before moving there. I was 22 years old. I really just was excited to move out West! So, fast forward to a few months later. I had just gone to McCarran (sp? been a long time!) to get a ticket to San Diego, had to hit up the Hard Rock for a concert ticket, and decided to finally see what the noise was about.
Well, I got to experience the joys of midget porn. Yes, I am alive to talk about it. It was a slow night, and I sat at the bar, and distinctly remember two TVs on. One had Sportscenter or whatever on. So I look to catch up on the world of sports. I turn my head, and there's midget porn. It was one of the most surreal moments of my life. If you had done drugs heavily? That's what it would be like.
Well, over the course of a few years (left in 2002), I would go there and see random blues bands, hang with friends, and overall just have the best time of my life. It was the best bar in Boston to just chill and hang and not care about how you looked. I grew to hate Las Vegas being involved in nightclubs to a degree, and this was the antithesis of what I saw night in, night out.
So here's the deal. Do yourself a favor and go here.
