"Bartender, I want to buy my new friend a sushi roll and drink. Whatever she wants, just line it up for her and put it on my tab. Jethro, switch me places so I can chat with this nice young lady without yelling over you," every where we go is the same. Jayball sees a gal he likes and I get to play the role of spectator - he then asks her name.
"My name is Darla, and I've been living in Las Vegas for six years now. I'm originally from Charlotte, but moved out here to work as a model for MGM. Nowadays, I am bartending at one of the major resorts on the strip," her look and voice were reminiscent of Daisy Duke...it was eerie. "Darla did you ever go to the horse track in Charlotte when you lived there?" He then adds, "When I lived back east, every once in a while I would find myself there." She then tells him her brother worked at the horse track and she used to hang out there all the time. After hearing this, he says, "I'm going to San Diego next week. And I'm going to spend some time at Del Mar. Do you want to tag along with me?" Whenever he talks Delmar...the kill is in site. Now was no different.
An hour or so goes by and she says - "I have to be going now. Here is my number. Call me and we'll make arrangements for the trip." Jayball is forever the gentlemen, so he offers to walk her to her car, she accepts. "Hold down the fort Jethro. I'll be back in a bit," he says with a smirk on his face. I then proceed to watch him and the Daisy Duke look-a-like leave the bar. Thirty minutes later he walks back in with a smile on his face. I didn't have to ask what happened. I already knew, but I ask anyway - "Do any of the women you hit on ever say no? This is probably the tenth time I've watched you pick a gal up while I sit here like a bump on a log. You must share your secret with me!" He smiles and says - "Jethro, in all my years of being Mr. Las Vegas I have learned one thing about how this town works! If you see something you like, don't hesitate to take it! If you follow that credo Las Vegas will be a lot better place for you."
