Seriously, how hard is this concept?

We have been known to have a drink or two when we are in Las Vegas, and after that one or two sometimes you need to use the restroom. Now we don't mean to be crude here at VegasRy, but there are times you want to hold on to that 11 dollar Gin and Tonic, or that 'free' beer that you ordered while dropping $150 at the BlackJack table.

This presents an age-old problem...what to do with your drink? Because the last thing one needs at that point is a dexterity test.

1. Place it on the porcelain part of the urinal, where there is a decent chance (Even Money) that it will slide off.

2. Place it on that black sensor thing on top, where the odds increase to 10:1 that it's falling off.

3. That someone actually put an ounce of thought into it, and there is a shelf.


Here is a photo from the Mirage, demonstrating the three options. Unfortunately, the ratio of shelfs to balancing acts is about 50-50 from what we encountered on our last trip.


So, note to Casino restroom architects: For the love of god, please think of us males. The broken glass on the bathroom floor should be a sign.
