When I was on my way to the previously mentioned SASS regionals at the luxurious Riveria on the famous Las Vegas strip( I have to say that now whenever I can in return the deal Zaya got for the room we were in), I saw a billboard that said "World's Largest Gentlemen's Club" right off the freeway. Later on in the trip, I pretended that we needed gas in the car and I drove over to where the strip club was hoping to find a gas station. Right before we got to the strip club, I saw this sign:

I went back to the hotel and looked the place up on line to see if Sven or the other experts said it was worth going to. I found a couple quotes online which made me want to go back and actually go inside:

“Every last piece in here was custom made for Frankie’s by the best, most famous tiki carvers in the world. Bamboo Ben, who is the foremost tiki bar designer in the world put the whole fucking thing together,” Moss said.

and

Double Down owner Moss started the process in January, purchasing Frankie’s before luring top tiki artists like Buzzy, Crazy Al Evans , Tiki Bosko, Leroy Schmaltz and Ray to come in and transform the old girl into a Polynesian oasis.

I hope you guys will never get tired of hearing me frequently repeat "I am one of the best, most famous, top tiki carvers in the world..."
And finally, I will not quoting myself when I say all that!

So here's some more of my trip to Frankie's and Las Vegas, where I stayed at the luxurious Riveria, located on the famous Las Vegas strip:
