Part 3 of Sin City


Due to the lack of money Nicole was experiencing we decided to make dinner in that night and with Annie being completely sick it was just Nicole and I we didn't want to eat out. We made Chicken Parm Pasta. It was tasty. But let's skip the minor info on this blog and talk about the real info y'all are here for... ROLLER RINK INSIGHT!!!

Nicole desired to go roller skating so she could practice her Derby skills (yes we still go every Wednesday night) and of course I was much willing. So in my minds eye I don't expect it to be a very busy and popular, boy was I WRONG! There were people everywhere! (however these pictures are from later in the night when it was starting to thin out)



I would like take the next paragraph to describe the look at the roller rink. So we get there and it was like stepping into a time warp. I mean seriously "let's do the time warp agaaaaiinnn." There were at least 3 side ponytails, 6 tutu's, 1 complete goth look, one tribute to Michael Jackson complete with sequined glove, off the shoulder jumbo sweater, and 12+ pairs of super skinny jeans on guys. One pair at least as we could find were easily true as the judge is my witness girl pants. But man alive the whole night it appeared to be a tribute to the 80's. Oh and let us not forget the trashy look on some people like our friend from the photo below...


She surely dressed up that night. And let us not forget her twin from another mother.


But man alive there where little kids skating better than I did. Granted let us not forget it has been since I was a freshman in High School that I skated. Heck there were people skating while texting, which I think we need to add that to the list of dangers while texting. There was this one little boy who was probably around the age of 3 who was going along the wall. I wanted to get a shot of him but I was not brave enough to attempt to shoot photo's while skating.

I just cant describe to you enough though on the attire of the people there it was AMAZINGLY retro. I felt that I was extremely under dressed compared to the rest. Heck let's share with you the look I had...

But who cares if I was under dressed I was not about to put on some skinny jeans at any point, or even bust out a tutu.

With any note it was alot of fun and brought much joy to a fun filled day. Plus I can't wait to go again. Maybe next time I am in Vegas I will go again, any takers to join in?

And let's be honest it led into the next adventure that I will post next that will include video proof of older people dancing at a cover bands show.

...to be continued....

Next time attempt a little ice skating (also popular in Las Vegas) and I wouldn't mind at all if you attempted to figure skate while at it.
