That whole place is disgusting. I don't see why people go there.
Most of those falling down drunk idiots you see everywhere in Las Vegas are from Texas.

That's interesting. Do you roll them over and check the drivers' licenses?

The man was laying there for at least six hours. Housekeeping must have seen him.

I'm not badmouthing Vegas or Nevada (I love parts of it!). The natural beauty of Nevada is not to be denied. Just the debauchery-ridden strip. Which I know...that's what it's supposed to be. I get that. You're the one not reading the post and then stirring up sh*t.

And I don't think Texas has cornered the "I'm a drunk idiot" market. But I stay away from places in Texas where large groups of drunk idiots gather, too. There's just no place as big and crowded here as there is there.

The point is that there was someone who appeared to be a passed out drunk lying on the ground. It's just more unusual in some places to see that than others.

Yes but they only know how to say "housekeeping" and "you need towel?" so when they went to get help it just created more confusion.

This is pretty typical of hotels in Las Vegas as far as I'm aware. I worked for one of the largest hotel/casino corporations in Las Vegas for many years, and most (if not all) had eyes all over the floor, but once you step off the elevator onto one of the tower floors... you're on your own. This may have changed, but I doubt it.

What happens in Vegas, gets buried in Vegas
(Or in the desert right outside of Vegas)
