Nothing too crazy at mine.. I watched a pitbull try to eat fireworks and my brother almost got seduced by an old lady. The party was pretty awesome though, no knives were pulled out.
man I fail, sorry for asking. was hoping to hear some good stories
I worked all night... just like I get to tonight (but then I get 4 days off, so it's cool). I celebrated with 5 other dudes on a Navy base with sparkling grape and apple non-alcoholic fake champagne and a countdown that was lame at best.
At least I didn't have to brief anyone in the morning.
I did Vegas, too, but took my lady instead of a chick du jour like our Army friend. We went to a party at the new Haze Nightclub in the Aria and then hit Club XS at the Encore after midnight. Haze is sweet but the Aria overall is not as nice as the Wynn in my opinion. Was $300 a piece just to get in and then, of course, there was another VIP area for $2,500 a piece where they served you all the top shelf crap. Just like Vegas to gank you for big bucks and then make you feel like a loser because you have no bottle service.
There were around 130,000 people on Las Vegas Blvd at midnight when they did fireworks from on top of 7 casinos along the Strip. The Vegas police made all retailers within a 5 block radius of the Strip stop selling bottled liquor or cans at 5pm on New Year's Even until 5am the next day. Didn't matter though - looked like a garbage dump the next morning either way.
I bought my lady some new ridiculously expensive shoes she had to have for the night and by 10pm she was in so much pain we were basically stationary in the clubs. Spendy night overall but fun I guess. Saw some celebs and such but hard to keep up with some of the dough folks were throwing around. And by the way, Dom Perignon champagne is not $100 better than Andres. Period. I don't care how cool you feel ordering it, you are still a tool if you chug it and spill half the bottle on your tux.
I don't know if im part jewish or what, but your story makes me sad. I wouldn't pay $300 to get into heaven. If my wife wants an expensive pair of shoes she can steal them.
Your night sounds like pure hell to me.
