Viva Las Vegas ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Living it up in Las Vegas.
After going on Tour with WWE Wrestler Jake "The Snake" Roberts last March, He invited me to his house in Las Vegas. At first I thought he was bullshitting me. But after hounding me, I bought a ticket and went to Las Vegas. I probably haven't been on a plane in over 10 years.

The first morning I was there, Jake and his Daughter/Manager Codi along with Assistant Karly got me into Juicing to lose weight and get healthy. I think a lot of my overeating comes from being bored, When I was at Jake's house, the last thing I was, was bored. After the excitement of staying at Jakes Dope ass house wore off, I got to work. They also had me doing some DDP Yoga and swimming.

What's better than eating veggies? Drinking them. Man Americans are so arrogant with food. If its shitty we eat a lot, if its good for us, we eat more of it!

Here's me and a Giant sign , so you don't have to guess where I was. Las Vegas is a big dumb loud city, I'm gonna fit in nicely here... (wait what?)

We even celebrated my 32nd Birthday together. How many people can say they celebrated a Birthday with a WWE Legend. Shit is amazeballs. To think all this came out of being a smart ass and finding all kinds of ways to get paid for it.

Here's me on my 32nd Birthday enjoying some of the Las Vegas sun in the Pool in Jakes' Backyard. Homies' house is insane. It's ridiculous where my dumb jokes have taken me. Also Las Vegas is HOT AS FUCK. I was like "Man I'm from Texas, Ill be alright" NOPE. 5 days later I developed heat rashes on my wrists. WTF.

DAY 1 Homie Joe Caliz, Joe and I started doing Comedy around the same time in San Antonio. He moved out to Las Vegas 3 years, and was more than Happy to show me around. Joe is stupid funny. He's insanely talented twisted and warped humorist. I Love this Dude. I cant wait to work more with him. We only to get work with each other 2 or 3 times a year... but now that I'm relocating (another clue)

This is Stella, the guard dog that would wake me up by stomping on my nuts and licking my face.(Women AmIRite?)  She also barks nonstop when visitors come over and hates thunderstorms. She's Pretty cool.

These are the two beauties that tell me to do stuff. Yeah this shit is easy when you have to answer to them. For my Birthday Codi (right) asked what kind of cake I like. I freestyled off the dome with "Brownie, Red Velvet, Oreo....white chocolate" So Codi and Karly (Left) made me Red Velvet, Brownie Oreo dick cakes topped off with white chocolate chips. The part of me that beleives in reincarnation is thinking the last 10 lives I've had were complete shit to deserve something this awesome. The Brownie cake was so rich I wanted to call it Daddy.

Jake eating Strawberries behind me. Jake is a Ham. He's so much fun to be around. Hanging out with him is like hanging out with another comedian. He's always ready with a quip or an insult. Me being me, I always get the last word and go toe to toe with him.(verbally, at least) 

Here's me performing at a Bar Show off the Strip. Shoutout to Jack Slammy for putting me up. Dude is a class act. The Host said this after my set. 

"KOOLAID, is the Blackest Dude in Here. 1 His NAME is KOOLAID, 2 His Shirt match his Shoes, He got his Baby Mama's name tattooed on him, KOOLAID got swag for real.".

Had a kickass, set. Before I could even sit down a Pretty Girl with some tig ole bitties told me that she loved my set. I replied with "I like your set too" (while staring at her Chest)

This Picture was taken the last day I was there, Jake is a bonafide Grill Master. The Chicken was marvelous. I was asked if I could make Guacamole. SHIIIIIIIIIIt. So I made  tasty Guacamole, Hearing Jake giving me "Two Thumbs Up" for my Guac was kickass. The whole party loved it. It's in High Demand.

Here I am with some delightful Arm Candy. Hanging out with these ladies is a treat. Making them laugh is a true delight for me. The Open Mic was also a Comedy Contest. I didn't win the Prize, but I did still get to do a Guest Spot at a Comedy Club on The Strip at the Stratosphere Casino.

For a Bit, Jake signed my shirt, My reacting was like "Jake we're friends You don't have to sign my shirt." "Sorry, force of Habit" Jake responded. We got to film some promos too, with a snake no less. That shit didn't hit me till the next day, when I was like "Yo, Did I just film a Promo with Jake "The Snake" and a Boa? My life is getting so absurd now.

The Day after my Birthday, early in the morning Jake came up to me. Telling me he spoke with Diamond Dallas Page aka DDP. He told me he talked to DDP about me, and that we should document my weight loss journey. Then he drops the bombshell on me "Y'know what that means? You gotta move in.." 

Here are the thoughts going through my head....

*Uhhhhhh Yeahhhhhh duhhhhh*

*I'd be retarded to stay in San Antonio*

*I have no immediate family in San Antonio, and needed a Push to leave Texas*

My Response, while Codi and Karly stared at me:

"Well Yeah, Of Course"

Shit hit me like a ton of bricks. To think I was asked to move in with Jake "The Snake", pretty much secured my Job as his Opener.

Now, I spend a ton of cash on Plane tickets, traveling across the country to different comedy clubs in front of packed excited wrestling fans. A year ago all I wished for was  to be told "Where to be, How much time to do, etc"

Hard work pays off. Booking over 60 shows a year, doing close to 200 shows a year, teaching defensive driving for 3 or less people...has made all this worth it.

DREAMS COME TRUE

My career is taking off, and my health too. I've been taking a pro active approach to lose weight, more on that later. 

Loving Life right now, getting ready to move to Las Vegas in September.
