Booth Shit Stolen
 

So, I went down to my booth yesterday to finish up with the little stuff, when only to find out a bunch of shit had been stolen. Nothing major, just some invoices, tons of business cards, cell phone charger, etc. But when I went to complain, I found out other companies had the same problem. I guess a Dell computer tower was taken at $3000 value and a couple of routers and other shit. So, when your booth stuff gets back, if you are missing stuff, you may know why....

Fucking Punks..isnt anything sacred?

:ak47: fucking bastards.

Kristin. It was a pleasure meeting you, and I look foward to partying with you in the near future.

This has happened for years at these shows!

I guess the union workers don't make enough

What can I say, my router pooped out on me.

That shit is uncalled for BASTARDS :ak47: :BangBang:

It was retarded...BH & L claim it wasn't their people (the union workers) but blame it on the cleaning crew. Either way, they are reimbursing us, but it's just retarded. Who wants business cards of some person who sells Big Cock for a living????

MC: Nice meeting you too!

This another example of Venetian security incompitence?

yeah i'm the one that had the dell stolen, at least they only took one and not both, i had my data drive on that fucking computer too.....grrrrr

someone actually stole your business cards??? guess they'll be pretty easy to catch if they start handing them out!

Kristin, Sorry to hear about that. We have had our few instinces over the years of things turning up missing.

Like the Harley Davidson giveaway tickets getting stolen!

At least they are reimbursing you. Most convention centers have security around, but it's your responsiblity to make sure things don't get stolen. It always happens. :feels-hot

Yeah, it's so dumb...There was a box of them with like 2000 of them it in. It's not that big of a deal, it's just annoying that I have to go get them printed again. That sucks about your computer, I'm sorry. Guess I shouldn't complain about what got stolen!

Kristin,

sorry to hear about your troubles.

I know how it goes, We had 30+ vibrators and Butt Plugs stolen at a show.

:(

We locked all of our shit up in the cabinets after the show was over. Now you know why.

I feel your pain. Everything that we left behind was ransacked and/or destroyed. It was all boxed up and marked with our name. We lost a dvd player, the rest of our Lightspeed jerseys, and all our cards, brochures, and flyers. All our banners were driven over by forklifts.

thanks internext for "taking care" of us.

Steve Lightspeed

there's a joke in there somewhere :)

gary loves the cock

Shit Mike, BT and I were trying to conspire how to steal the Harley itself!:winkwink:
Really though, stealing anything is low down. But judging by the strangers coming into our booth who said nothing but had no problem eating our daily lunch buffett, nothing surprises me about people.:mad:

D'oh...I didn't know that Steve. I'm sorry buddy.

"I guess a Dell computer tower was taken at $3000 value .."

... you gotta be jokin´, that useless piece of shit didn´t sell on the streets, let me know if you wanna have it back.

teamsters:ak47:

We had our bandoleers of fake bullets stolen from our booth. I have a feeling it was from show goers though as people kept asking me for our SEG bullets insisting we were giving them away.

Thats why we pack up the bus and drive it out of there about 2 hours after the show closes. We love pissing off the fucking teamster over there.

And as far as security, I think the youngest you can be to have a gaurd position there is 65 and seenile :1orglaugh

Nothing new at this dam show. We had a laptop bag ripped off at the last Vegas show during setup, while we were behind the fuckin booth!

In the bag?
- PC
- Digital camera
- CAR AND HOUSE KEYS (the worst)
- Palm with meeting schedules

I swear, if you don't buy their "booth security" they make it a point to rip you off. I have heard from many people that workers (union of course) there are doing crap like this at every show that goes through.

All i have to say is; don't mess with the one show that will have hidden cams setup in the booths broadcasting live all over the net if this keeps up.

I say we fuck the Sands and move the show to North Dakota. :thumbsup

Craig, part of me was hoping BT would have won that thing.

He told me if he won the VROD he was going to ride it back to Florida in his boxers! hahahaha

I was going to hold it to him if he won

ND in January... :eek7


count me out.

Hell yeah, I agree 100%.

Some fucker grabbed my credit cards the first night of the show and i had to come back and deal with making sure checks and junk were going to clear from my accounts..they were buying cell phones and getting gas at all the gas stations in vegas..dont know if it was a maid..or what..at the venetian though

When I exhibited the last day was a nightmare. A lot of people get in on borrowed/sold/found badges. We called them the "backward badge" guys because they would never let you see their name or company. Actually started to have a real problem with guys trying to grab the girls and shit like that. We were an all model booth- no male staff, and the largest one of us was like 5'2". Venetian Security was useless (kept asking to speak to "my boss"- last time a wear a skirt when I need to do business) and the last few hours were pretty hairy. Ended up having all the t-shirts and custom fortune cookies stolen. They really have to stay on top of the badge situation for the WHOLE show. I think that would stop a lot of this.

I say they move it to the new Mandalay Bay Convention Center. 3 years ago we "lost" a stereo system. Worthless COP security.

I love petite girls.

Nice.

:glugglug

I'll be at the next show just to stop by your booth!

I love hotties with brains...

I would check that Archer guy....kinda suspicious if you ask me

I say we move the next Vegas show to a new venue...

From the sounds of it they can't keep their shit together in any department.

That sucks man!

I was in the booth next to you, I kept hoping you'd come back for that stuff because it was pretty chaotic in there. The cleanup crews took the fabric off of the table where you had the stuff so after that it was basically sitting out in the open. I was there until almost 6:30 waiting for then to deliver our empties so we could finish packing. By the time we were done we had to rush to the airport to catch the flight home. It was all there when I left, but the hall was a mess.

hmmm... :eek7

Would they not have security? And would that security not ask why you're carryin a tower out of the place?...

Cheers,
Matt

Oh I saw the security guy, he was about 65 years old and sat in a corner up at the front enterance. I still think we should have the show at the Mandalay Bay or something, shit the mile walk from our rooms to the Expo is enough for me to want to change hotels.

thats fucked...we were your neighbors at the show.

Someone stole my dirty underwear and used condoms...
