Because in Miami, we have nothing.

We have swamp and flats.

So it's like, well, they'll go see mountains.

They'll see the desert.

They'll see what it's like, the Grand Canyon, this whole thing.

And it was really just an excuse for my dad and some of the older guys in my family to go gamble and drink and do all this stuff.

One day, we weren't going to the Grand Canyon, and they were like, you're gonna come with us, we're gonna take you to this place, you're gonna have fun there for eight hours, and we're gonna go have our time.

They took us to the MGM Grands.

They had like an internal, not internal, but like a on-campus, not really a water park, just like a park, like an amusement park, and it had roller coasters, and it had all these fun things, and I had a great time.

The nighttime was on them.

They took us to see shows.

That's where I saw Siegfried and Roy.

I saw Siegfried and Roy, yeah.

That's also when I found out magic was bullshit because we sat right on the end of the table at the end and it was just my mom, my sister, and Gino because my dad was going off playing craps and stuff.

And we're sitting right at the end because it was like stadium seating, right?

So it's stadium seating all the way down and there's a big part in the middle

where you can walk and they do a trick or whatever and they the guy comes by and he says hey tuck your legs in right and everybody told us tuck your legs and tuck your legs in and then all of a sudden from the corner of my eye a guy comes running past full speed dressing all white and my sister goes that's him and then sure as shit boom it's roy in the middle of the crowd and that's when we discovered that all these magicians and magic were all bullshit all right because the guy just ran out from the side right where he needed to be

Oh, there's a child here.

But when you're a kid too, Vegas, very stimulating place.

Yeah.
