Hi, and welcome to fabulous Las Vegas!
Las Vegas is Wonderland! You can come here and get as drunk as you want, do anything you like, and nothing bad will ever happen to you!
LAS VEGAS (AP) -- A man has been critically injured after falling from an escalator on the Las Vegas Strip.
Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department spokeswoman Laura Meltzer said the man fell about 30 feet from an escalator leading to a bridge near Caesar's and the Bellagio casino around 4:30 a.m. Friday.
Meltzer said the 39-year-old man was a French national in town for a convention. His identity has not been released.
He was reportedly with a group of people and attempted to stand on the railing when he fell.
Meltzer said alcohol appears to be involved.
Oh. Ok, that doesn't look so good. I can't believe that you'd injure yourself if you get really drunk and try to stand on the handrail of a moving escalator! How unfair of Las Vegas to injure this person! You'd think that drunk people can do anything! Or at least drunk people think they can do anything. VEGAS, BABY!
That's just one idiot though, right? I mean, who does something like that? You're pretty safe here crossing the street at least, right?

Pedestrian killed in Las Vegas Strip accident identified
A man who died Thursday after being struck by a driver on the Las Vegas Strip was identified Friday.
Russell Barnet Fix III, 58, of Las Vegas, was struck and killed by a 1998 Ford F-150 truck driven by Aleesha C. Daly, 28, at 12:10 a.m. Thursday.
She was arrested by Las Vegas police on suspicion of drunken driving.
The collision happened on Las Vegas Boulevard just outside the Four Seasons Hotel.
Police said Fix had been in a crosswalk, but then entered the right travel lane and headed toward a bus stop. He was jaywalking when struck by the truck, police said.
Daly was booked into the Clark County jail. She is being held on a $2,000 bond.
Oh. So even jaywalking is dangerous here? Geez! Vegas...baby? It was probably the guy's fault for jaywalking. Wait...the girl was driving drunk too, wasn't she? Wow...
So I guess Las Vegas isn't the safe haven stupid people think it is, is it? Now I don't feel as safe as I did before I started writing this.
