    Hollywood is about 15 miles north of Miami, there is 7 Hollywood's in the United States with the most popular being in Los Angeles. RJJ is not from Miami, the other's were correct though

    I would say New York was the best city throughout most of the 20th Century. I mean, look how many great fights occurred at Madison Square Garden and Yankee Stadium. But since the 70's, Las Vegas has overtaken New York. Recently, New York has been making a comeback, mainly due to Trinidad and Cotto fighting there and packing the house. Atlantic City was doing well in the 80's and 90's and still does well, but for a time it was number two behind Vegas. It seems like its "grand" days are past.

    You really think so? I read El Nuevo Dia newspaper a lot and there seems to be cards there all the time. Maybe not big fights, but Calderon, Juanma Lopez, Oquendo, Jesus Rojas and others fight there alot. In fact, I once saw Ricardo Torres and Edwin Vazquez (the one who Judah beat recently) live. Torres KO'd him brutally and then fought Cotto soon after and we know what happened there. At the time of this fight, people were saying Torres was a "fill in," he took the fight on short notice, look what he did to Cotto, etc., etc., as if Torres had been inactive for a long time. But Torres was the more active when he fought Cotto and they were scheduled to fight each other later in the year, but Branco had to pull out of the fight, so they moved up the Torres fight. Sorry about digressing folks.

    Don't forget about the cheap ones!!

    They need lovin' too, and they're more likely to negotiate with you and set up some kind of deal if you're a little short on cash.

    I don't know what side of town that you reside in but there are very few cheap hookers in Vegas. These girls are used to having so many wanna be high rollers come into town and waste their money, you will see unattractive women working at a 500 dollor an hour rate

    I've lived here almost my whole life (with a few stints in Cali) so trust me, I know how it works.


    3 girls (occasionally hot) girls sitting together at a bar by themselves in Gucci dresses with a drink in front of them (but by no means drunk) at 3am in a casino = $500.00 a pop (they will ALWAYS make eyes at you if you're by yourself)

    Trashy crack ho (possible transvestite) walking around downtown (downtown by Fremont St., not the Strip) with next to nothing on but having on the biggest high-heels you've ever seen = name your price. they might be bold enough to quote a rate as high as $50.00 but are always willing to go much cheaper

    I have a funny story for you. I got into town May 1st of 07 and spent the first month here looking for a good booty call, I was not able to find anything so I picked up the telephone book one day and looked for one of the Massage parlors. There was one place that had outgoing calls for 80 bucks, so I said OK let me have one come by the house, sure enough she comes by the house and she was not attractive. She had no ass whatsoever, no tits, and her face was about a 6, this is the type of girl I would not even look at in a club, nor would I by a drink. But here she was at my house and I'm horny so I say let's get it on, she told me that on top of my 80 bucks it was an additional 200 for a BJ and 500 for sex, I immediately told her to leave my house, I said to myself " only in Vegas can a ugly broad like that charge so much money
