A Vegas strip steak will never work, and here is why

1) The USDA Mark on the steak, people will be forced to read it
1a) Hot, Sizzling steak delivered to your room in 15 minutes
2) The north part of the steak will be tougher and of lower quality
3) New cut "Breasts of beef"
4) A "topless" Vegas strip steak will be without onions
5) The prime part of the steak will be $89.00 while the discounted end will be $9.99
5a) More on weekends and holidays
6) A Vegas strip steak, what does it have on it Sparklers? Pasties?
7) No one will believe "Elvis ate this steak"
8) Steak does NOT rhyme with sex, or winning
9) Oscar Goodman already stole the idea for his restaurant

And the NUMBER 10 reason there will NEVER BE A VEGAS STRIP STEAK
10) Is this steak part of unincorporated Paradise or Winchester??????

Should I expect to see the steak at the grocery store sometime soon?


No, Price said.


Why not?


"If i told you, it would be a hint to where this muscle is," he said. "A knowledgeable person would say, 'Aha!'"
So the word "yes" would tell a knowledgeable person where the muscle is. What a dumb ass thing to say.

Interesting idea, though, making a new cut of beef for sale. Should be interesting to see it if works out.

The trademark will probably work better than the patent.

I'm pretty sure what he's saying is that if he explained why the cut would not appear in your supermarket, it would be a big hint to some as to where the cut is located. At least that's how I read it.
