Strangeness at the Excalibur




As I was leaving the Excalibur poker room a short time ago, I saw these two guys playing the wheel of fortune. They're wearing these strange white paper hats. You can't read them in this low-resolution cell phone photo, but the one on the left says "It puts the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again." (That's one of the creepier lines from "Silence of the Lambs," for those of you who have never seen it.) The one on the right says something about being Mexican and the INS coming to get you.

There must be a weird story behind these hats. My guess is that it involves both alcohol and a lost prop bet. But I didn't inquire.

Exaclibur is home to a Dick's Last Resort restaurant http://lasvegas.dickslastresort.com/index.php

These hats are part of the "fun" and shenanigans that occur in this particular establishment.
