Imagine, if you will, that you’re a hobo. This will be much easier for some of you than for others. Now imagine you’re wandering up and down Las Vegas Boulevard, and you see the fountain in front of Paris gushing the most beautiful shade of purple you’ve ever seen, and a bunch of people out front stomping grapes. It’s going to be like when Daffy Duck is trapped on a desert island, looks at Bugs Bunny and sees a giant turkey, right? You’re going to think you died and went to Wine-vana.

It’s cruel, Paris. Cruel to taunt the hobos with your faux wine fountain.

Regardless, Holly Madison and a Lucille Ball impersonator were on hand on the Ah Sin patio to celebrate the start of Beaujolais season by getting their feet dirty with the popping of the cork on the 2009 Georges DuBoeuf Beaujolais Nouveau. Now, if you’ll excuse us, we have some fine vintage $5 vino to kick back. We believe it’s a rare varietal known as R’ed. Are we saying that right? RRRRR-eh-duh? It’s fancier when you roll the “R’s” right?
