IMHO, they are short on politeness and civility and long on being "stuck on themselves". It is nothing more than the usual over-the-top show business that goes on the Strip. There is always a 'price to be paid' when dealing with celebrities and they make you pay it big time. .......... NevSmith

I'm taking my staff to Vegas in April for a conference, maybe we'll all go in and check it out.

50 yard long line? Wow! I've driven by early during the weekdays and would never had guessed they get lines.

In the case of Orange County Choppers it took a basement bike shop and turned it into a million dollar corporation.

I think people avoided pawn shops because of a sort of seedy reputation. The two OR shops I'm familiar with are the complete opposites of what I knew 30 years ago back East.

I've never been to Vegas but I've met all of them on the road. Rick is the most withdrawn of all of them and Chumlee is the most social. I like Chumlee and the Old Man Best but that's just me. They are all nice and when I met The Old Man he even let me run my fingers through his hair. In fact I have a Chumlee bobblehead for sale for $18 (plus shipping) and I also have an autographed XL I love Chumlee shirt. To see the shirt go to Kijiji Chatham Kent or email me at bcfairprincess@hotmail.com. The shirt's $45 (plus shipping.)

Well, I gotta admit, I'm one of the 5%. I also put my "life on the line" for 20 years in the US Army for the same reason. The freedom to make dumb decisions.
