Las Vegas Travel Diary: Everything You Need for a Visit to Vegas

This vending machine in the men’s room in Accordion City’s Pearson Airport dispenses everything you need for the perfect weekend in Las Vegas:

"Travel store" vending machine featuring: Tylenol, condoms, Ice Drops breath mints and Body Play tattoos."Travel store" vending machine featuring: Tylenol, condoms, Ice Drops breath mints and Body Play tattoos.

The offerings from the vending machine are outdone by the goodies awaiting guests of the Mandalay Bay hotel, where I’m staying. Miniature Snickers bars trump breath mints every time!

Cocktail shaker, can of Snickers miniatures, can of M&Ms, can of sour cream and chives Pringles, can of original Pringles, 3 boxes of assorted nuts, "The Love Box" and "The Travel Box"Cocktail shaker, can of Snickers miniatures, can of M&Ms, can of sour cream and chives Pringles, can of original Pringles, 3 boxes of assorted nuts, "The Love Box" and "The Travel Box"

Being the rather – ahem – “earthy” person that I am, I had to inspect “The Love Box”. Its contents are listed on the back of the box, which I photographed and posted below:

"Contents: two lubricated prophylactics, two personal lubricants, two obstectrical towelettes, two oral fixation mint packers, one massage oil, one feminine fresh wipe""Contents: two lubricated prophylactics, two personal lubricants, two obstectrical towelettes, two oral fixation mint packers, one massage oil, one feminine fresh wipe"

Is it me, or does the list of contents sound a bit…clinical?

  • contents:
    two greased up johnson jackets
    two packets of WD-40...for REAL men!
    two wipey things
    two tasty mints
    one "this leads to other things" oil
    one more wipey thing

  • I suspect that most people who are actually in need of the box won't read the contents but will just open it.

    The real question I have is: does Microsoft allow you to expense the use of the always-outrageously-expensive snack/minibar?

  • For a real trip to Vegas, that washroom vending machine ought to at least dispense care packs containing 5 sheets of high powered blotter acid and a salt shaker half full of cocaine.
