BIKINIS, BELLINIS AND BOCCE
It was an afternoon of fabulous food, fantastic fun and good sport—although all but two of us had never played the game of bocce before. I was partnered with Lauren, one of the Pussycat Dolls casino dancers at Caesars Palace and we won our first round by totally annihilating hypnotist Anthony Cools, 8-1.
For once I put a spell on him!
A group of local Strip celebrities and Caesars beauties gathered at RAO’s Italian restaurant at Caesars Palace for the match on the bocce court overlooking the resort’s main pool. While waiting for our semi-finals match, Lauren, her Pussycat casino dancer gal pal, Angie and I bathed in the beautiful bellinis of squeezed white pears and champagne made by celebrity mixologist, Tony Abu Ganim. They were so glorious and bountiful that in the next game Lauren and I became the team that couldn’t shoot straight, losing 8-0! RAO’s partner Ron Strachi hopelessly beat us, but you’d expect him to know the game better than us!!! The games were such a success that they will become a quarterly event, and with the bikini beauties on hand I can sense ESPN is just around the corner!
