I finally got around to listening to this episode and I really haven't had a Vegas celebrity moment other than walking by Flava Flav at the New York Dolls/Poison/Motley Crue concert at Red Rock back in 2011. The weekend of VT10, I was at Casa Fuente and Joe Montana was going to swing by after an autograph session at one of the shops nearby, but the place was really busy so he bailed. Here in Atlanta, my biggest celebrity encounter was seeing Elton John browsing through CDs in the aisle across from me at Tower Records one Tuesday a number of years ago. I looked up, thought to myself, hey that's Elton John, and went back to looking at CDs.

Now the best Vegas celebrity story I've heard is Spyder's story about playing blackjack at the Imperial Palace with the Hedgehog himself, Ron Jeremy. Said story has been told here in the past and it's still the funniest thing I have ever heard.
