Gee, who'd have ever thought that refined folks like boxing fans might
misbehave once they got to Vegas. The city that advertises "what happens in
Vegas..."

Geezz...I thought only us Yankees were known for boorish behavior.
Our cousins set some records in VEGAS the weekend before last. Rumor has it
20-25,000 BRITS made the considerable trip from the UK for the
Mayweather-Hatton boxing match. They brought their own bands with them and
everything. The
fight was held at the MGM GRAND, who went through 4,000 cases of beer on
Saturday night (normally the BIGGEST night sees but 500 cases consumed).
Several
local bars were 'closed' because of unruly behavior by the BRITS (a VEGAS
first). Later, newspaper headlines suggested such boorish behavior will not
be
missed in this 'wide-open' city.
I watched a replay of the fight on HBO over the weekend. It was a good
fight. Hatton is one tough kid, but Mayweather is a more skilled boxer, and
in
fact knocked Hatton out in the 10th.
