Help 4 Hatteras fundraiser last night went great. A nice size  crowd showed up and there was chips and salsa everywhere.  Big ups to Rob Brown, Mark Yonkers and ERGO Rep, Mike Beech for putting this together. Aaron Cormican sent us a check from his winnings from the seven tiki pro, Tony Hawk gave us a autographed board, Ben Bourgeois donated a board, and at the last minute… AJW comes through with 2 more surfboards. Everyone was a winner cause no matter what we were helping those in need. You can still donate to Help 4 Hatteras by going on to there website help4hatteras.org.

When the gentlemen at ERGO decided to send the whole team out to Vegas, it almost seemed like a fairy tale. Las Vegas. The place that even Barbara Streisand can always sell out. The place of Eastern European folklore. The place where people come and try to woo women with the massive amounts of money and foolish bets, failing to realize we all pay the same price for hookers anyway. And most importantly, the place where the Blue Man Group finally found their home. And we were all to be sent out there to enjoy a week of…Vegasness.

Contrary to popular belief, nothing that was anything like “The Hangover” happened. However, in the name of stupidity and negligence of most forms of responsibility being cool, here is a list of things that did happen:

- Scott, the intern, rode home on the roof of Joe Mac’s car, grasping on for his life along the 50 mph road. (without anyone in the car knowing)

- Popular rap artist Juelz Santa tried to fight me.

- Dingus flipped the dune buggy.

- Rob Brown skated hard every day, resulting in a series of half-conscious groans on the last morning as he twisted and turned in bed, always finding a new area of his body to aggravate.

-Norman Woods and Kris Markovich had a highly anticipated beer drinking contest. Kris won all rounds, but Norman would still make 99% of the population look stupid. (Video coming soon)

- Lil D entered a surfing competition at the Mandalay Bay wave pool. After taking 1st place and a $500 check, he decided that he would use the money to go to Hawaii to tackle the big waves of the North Shore.

- Everybody went out under the blank of Las Vegas’ arid heat, gambling and sweating and sinning, enjoying every breath of the oxygenated evil jungle. Some went home with extra money. Some went home in hawaiian shirts. All went home with a smile

With the help of ERGO, I threw a party in honor of Bernie Lomax, a man who even in death threw an awesome party. We decided to make him the guest of honor and felt it was only right to  have  a bikini contest. People lost their keys/wallets, girls were making out with each other, a guy got tossed down a flight of stairs…  and I even somehow called 911 by accident and said nothing.  All this on a thursday? Go big ERGO home I guess. Thanks to South End Surf Shop, Sanuk, Anarchy, Sun Bum, Malice Media and Red Dog’s for the getting on board with the event.  Last but not least, we gotta thank Bernie, we couldn’t of done it without you man. Video from Malice Media coming soon..
