Lol @ the internet.

After a day of running around Vegas doing nothing, last minute decision was made to dine at the Ruth Cris steakhouse on Paradise. Little over priced, but if you want a filet and Australian lobster tail at 2am in Vegas, this is your best option.

End up getting there about an hour before closing and had a really good meal. Was joined by Micon, Maven, and Zac.

Right when we were finishing out entrees, we notice this fucking insane laugh coming from across the room. I look over, and sure as shit, its Don King sitting in a booth chowing down on lobster, alaskan king crab, and steak.

The Maven and I are about 2 bottles of wine in, and Zach had about 6 newcastles before dessert, so we walk over there and ask King if he wants to take some shots with us. He agrees, but only if its hennessy. He is eating alone and we try to film the shennanigans but his bodyguards tell us we cant, because they dont want his rambling shennanigans ending up on youtube.

Zach pulls out the little camera looking flip phone and they end up thinking we are just snapping a photo. It was a epic fail we couldnt film in the Ruth Cris Don King smoking his cigar, pounding shots of hennessy and just acting Don King crazy.

He told us he had just left a meeting with Phil Rufkin (owner of the TI casino) going over final plans for a boxing title fight that went down on Saturday night at the TI.

Fucking Vegas.

The story I remember is that Don King beat the guy to death with a loaded hand gun. The fact that he clearly didn't intend to kill the guy is the reason he didn't do that much time in jail. But Don King apparently throws a mean pistol whip.

mmmmm...pistol whip.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_King_%28boxing_promoter%29


King was born in Cleveland, Ohio. After dropping out of Kent State University, he ran an illegal bookmaking operation, and was charged for killing two men in separate incidents 13 years apart. The first was determined to be justifiable homicide after it was found that King shot Hillary Brown in the back and killed him while he was attempting to rob one of King's gambling houses.[1] King was convicted of second degree murder for the second killing in 1966 after he was found guilty of stomping to death an employee, Sam Garrett, who owed him $600.[1] In an ex parte meeting with King's attorney, the judge reduced King's conviction to nonnegligent manslaughter for which King served just under four years in prison.


never good to get your head stomped in to a bleeding pulp of a death over 6 hundos
