Las Vegas Elevator True story... On a long trip i was entertaining the car load with stories... then the young lady tells me this story, although you feel for her circumstances, you are ashamed of this lady and her racist thoughts... here goes... A lady hits a big win on a las vegas slot machine and decides to take the money to her room and put it in her safe in the room. she gets on the elevator and just before the doors close three black men barely beat the doors closing to get in the elevator. she is standing there with almost an overflowing cup of money and is not real comfortable. one of the black men gives her a stare, and says loudly "hit the floor".... she drops to the floor, begging for her life, telling them to take the money and to not hurt her... she looks up when she hears laughter.... "push the button" the black man says pointing to the elevator control... they all erupt when she figures out the hit the floor was a request for her to push the button to select the floor. horribly embarrassed she gets to her room and everything is fine. Later on she goes back to her room again after gambling to find room service has delivered a bottle of champagne... on the note all it says is thanks for the laughs on the elevator... darn them guys she is thinking, i upset them and now they are getting me back by charging on to my bill... she felt it was fair as she treated them wrong thinking the worst. when she goes to check out she tries to pay for the champagne only to find out it is already paid for... you might want to read the note here says the clerk.... the note the young lady we were on our trip with said it was signed "little richie" ... thinking it can be only little richard or lionel richie, i lean to lionel as little richard is as flamboyant as liberace and a lot more recognizable... still this is totally a hoot!
