Des Baroches Casino & Resort. Everyone everywhere has heard of the place, what with it reaching world fame in what seemed to be a week. It’s one of the world’s foremost places to visit if only for it’s location on the coast of Monte Negro. A place that makes Las Vegas look clean and virginal and Hollywood appear to be just another suburban town. The place is home to one of the best restaurants in Europe and is in all sort of magazines more than the next great Hollywood train wreck. It’s become a lifestyle in and of it’s self and the world around wants a piece of that action.
And why shouldn’t it be so popular? With big budget movies dying to film a scene here or there and all sorts of shows going on, well, it’s better than anything else in the world. Certainly Hollywood doesn’t offer as great of a shot as watching the latest big budget action star blow hundred at the crap table just like you. Or the amazing not so slim chance in hell of actually seeing that model you stare at in the magazines at the table next to you. It’s a social equalizer like no other if you could actually manage to afford it. Really, the resort itself has to be the headlines favourite story since it’s always mentioned along with the heiress who might be dating the popstar who wears those skimpy skirts.
Though not all of the headlines are what they could be. January 5th a body was found off the coast of Sicily of all places, later identified to be one of the resort’s former customers. Reports suggest he may have gotten into a bit of trouble with loan sharks since there are gangs of them roaming around the casino freely since it’d be wrong to kick someone out because they look sketch. But not to worry, the man was later found to have overdosed on some nasty little drug, leading people to believe that there might be a drug ring somewhere within the resort. And while Des Baroches denies this, well, let's just say common sense will lead people to think otherwise. Which may just say something about the clientele since they’ve gotten more visitors yearly since then.
After all, a small threat of drug dealers or winding up in a ditch somewhere with all your limbs broken is worth it to some of the visitors. Worth it to say that you stayed at the greatest place on earth and hit it big. Or perhaps you lost it all? Really no on will know until you man up, book a trip and take the risk. Des Baroches promises to make it a regrettable mistake you want to do again and again…
