    It's always hard to figure out what the truth is in these situations, because you're dealing with potential Caesars fail and potentially drunk degen gamblers, and trying to decipher which one (or both) is at fault.

    The majority of comedians have their issues and mind altering substances goes with that. You say Stanhope is an admitted drunk, like that is relegating him to the unwashed.

    Everyone has their vices. Some people lie and cheat people out of money, but they don't drink Some people can't help stuffing their faces because it gives them the dopamine rush we all relate to.

    You are no better that Doug Stanhope in fact considering what you stand for, which is money in your pocket, you are lower than Doug Stanhope the drunk.

    Kinda strange that he didn’t edit out his address...not that he’s hard to find.

    You have to realize that comedians being barred from clubs etc. is not that uncommon. Many comedians do not always "play to the room". The room in question, a Vegas hotel casino nightclub where Americans from all walks of life like to congregate. Stanhope and others like him are going to say what they thinks is funny and I would not be surprised if his act contained a fair bit of Trump material.

    This does not go down with all audiences, especially in the melting pot of Vegas. People are there not just to see Stanhope, in fact I'm sure most don't even know him.

    So you get enough complaints from people who are paying the bills and it adios

    Caesars/Harrah's/Rio/Eldorado Resorts is ALWAYS AT FAULT!

    Also many WSOP employees and Phil Hellmuth for being a complete tool, fool and clueless idiot.

    Has always posted his address. People send him bibles from hotel rooms. They used to have a big superbowl party but I guess they shut it down when too many randoms were flying in and messing everything up.

    I took a trip to Tombstone and went down to Bisbee to check out the massive copper mine. It is a really cool place with half the town built on the side of a hill which includes some old hotels. His place consists of several lots and he has built it up pretty nice with a few bars, etc. As for the people it seems like a lot of drifters and people on disability. Not much money there aside from Stanhope and the hotels.

    I see the documented rep delete bug is still with us.

    Only Phil could make 20 women wearing next to nothing look gay.

    He's far from a struggling comedian so your chances of getting him on are literally zero but it's always cool to take these moonshots bc you never know what will happen.

    Yeah, exactly what I thought, which is why I took the shot, but never had the delusion that he was coming on.

    Hey asshole, I'm not defending a drunk I'm defending a comedian. So many people don't understand comedians who say what they want to say for the laugh. The fact that he was barred from a room is not because he was blind drunk but he said things that people take too seriously. A comedian takes any subject and puts a twist on it for the laugh.

    I just watched another Stanhope video and I like him more than ever. Guy was in deep as a kid.

    Here's a show he did from February 16, three days before the review.

    He talked about getting blackout drunk, skipped out on money he owed (his assistant ended up paying), his assistant sleeping in the hallway drunk outside his door, and smoked pot in his room.

    Obviously someone brought Caesars attention to this in June, and they banned him.
    Just to be sure, can you write up a negative review of the Rio at post it on Yelp?

    I listened to Druff’s radio segment too.

    What Druff entirely misses with this story is the comedy. From the jump this was all done for laughs (and the attention good comedy brings).

    The chronology of when he wrote the review is immaterial. It was a funny review. You get he’s a comedian, right?

    A comedian tells requisite Vegas blackout drunk stories. We don’t give a fuck. He doesn’t give a fuck. We all have fun.

    Druff treats this with all the seriousness of a colonoscopy.

    You’ve been had son. Lighten up.

    If you're really interested in the Stanhope story don't give up on trying to get him on the radio show.
    The fact that he hasn't responded to your request has nothing to do with him being too good for the request.

    Keep contacting him and mention you also have a long list of Rio stories

    Do you think he wasn't reporting the truth in his review, or at least what he believed to be the truth?

    Yes it was written in a comedic style, but it wasn't a joke.

    He responded to a message by John Mehaffey, which I then responded to, and offered to give Doug advice on how to get unbanned from the Rio.

    He "liked" my response but didn't answer me.
