    Cool "Pawn Stars'

    So I was in Vegas this past week-end and had some free time on my hands, so I decided to visit Chumlee and the boys on “Pawn Stars”.
    First of all, Gold & Silver Pawn Shop is downtown and not in the best neighborhood, but you’ll be fine - although I’d probably stick to visiting during the day.
    BTW, the shop, believe or not, has turned into a major Vegas tourist spot- only in Vegas. At any rate the shop itself is small, there was a line out front (maybe 75 to 100 people) and there’s a parking lot; it was full, not that I was going to park and stand in line so I could be at the mercy of the Vegas sun beating down on me to visit a pawn shop.
    No, I just circled the block, waved to the people in line, honked at a newly married couple exiting the wedding chapel across the street and headed back to the Strip.
    Oh and I did see Elvis & Bumblebee -Transformer standing on the corner---you gotta love Vegas.

    I'm about due for making a Vegas run myself, maybe at the end of the month. Not interested in visiting the pawn stars however, just happy to lounge around and check out the scenery. Maybe try an in and out while I'm there.
