Well at the recent XBiz show...at the pre-show Video Secrets Go Kart event there was free BBQ and beer. National Net had free margaritas at poolside for the actual 2 days of the show. And we were all given TWO free drink tickets for the circle bar as part of our $200 badge cost. There was also a CC Bill late afternoon event with free cocktails at the club Wasted Space.
Other than than, I spent around $600 for CM and I to have drinks at the always overpriced center bar and the outrageously priced bar at the Penthouse strip club for the Players Ball ($15 for a screwdriver, before tip)
It's always been like that. Actually a lot worse back around 2000 when Internext was at the Venetian. Back then I'd run through about 10 grand (without gambling).
So yeah, I can always tell who has and hasn't ever been to an industry function when they start all that "bro" and "free drink" bullshit
