90/100

phrase of the day – ‘Thunder Rack’

Love the fact that Gary is still pushing the boundaries and being inventive. He films this episode in his hotel room (the camera is high quality by the way….watch out Mott) and is as engaging as usual

  • You’re in LA and didn’t call me GV? I’m crushed…like a grape.
    QOTD: mini-bar is off-limits in my company

    QOTD: A Tiger beer out of a minibar in Singapore the day I started one of the best trips of my life… it takes a good 24 hours of plane travel for me to open the minibar, otherwise it ain’t worth the price!

  • An uneventful wine from a mini- bar … that was ours. Maybe it was this Clos Du Bois! 😉 Have fun in LAX!

  • LOVE THIS! Thanks for making my crappy night at work entertaining! I think this should definitely be a regular show everytime you travel. It would also be funny if you did a show from first class on the airplane trip home.

    Sadly, never had a drink from a mini bar. Not with my wallet.

    Hey Gary I really liked this episode with my job i am always going to different hotels in i always wondered if they really had anything to offer other than high prices. It would be grate if you did this at all the places you stay because you travel a lot further and more frequently to see if any of these places can really bring the thunder.
    Thanks for keepen on

  • GV~ Dude GET BETTER!! Zicam rocks.

    QOTD. Arctic Club Hotel in Seattle had FABULOUS mini-bar and basket of yum. We had port wine and truffles and that’s about all I can share here. Keeping it G for y’all. 😉 But it was magnificent.

    Feel better!!!!

    KO

  • LOL … favorite line: “It is not one of the top hotel lines we have come across, although we’ve only come across ONE.”

    hahaha!

    Serious question! Ok, I don’t drink much wine — so help me understand this part. What’s with the spitting part? Do you get a different flavor than if you were to swallow it?

  • QOTD: My buddies and I once drank every ounce of liquid in the mini bar, fun until the bill arrived.

    GV, great concept for a show! Since you are all over the WORLD, keep them coming. Good “fix” for us junkies so there is not a great gap between “real” shows.

  • greta

    QOTD: Not from a mini bar, but upon check-in, I did once receive a bottle of Dom as a welcoming gift from the hotel…I can’t lie, I have no idea why they sent it to me, but I was, nonetheless, very happy…

    Make sure that someone takes you up on the “Thunder Rack” idea! I am so tired of staying in hotels without a nice wine in the mini bar, as then you are always forced to wait around for room service, etc. to get a decent bottle.

    QOTD: A Labatts Blue from the mini-bar @ a hotel in Toronto. I was desperately needing a beer after a long flight and check-in. It was like a new best friend.

    Mott- You’re getting the message right? Bad economy, good video phone, episode without you? If you need help filling out the unemployment compensation application, give me a shout.

    That said, it was a pretty poor episode so maybe you do have job security.

    QOTD: I forgot what it was. Yawn.

  • Harry

    You’re such a nut. Thanks for the spontaneity. I almost never touch the mini-bar, and can’t remember last time I did.

    That was pretty funny. You totally should have spit in the toilet though.

  • Cameron J

    HA! I love it! Funny, crazy episode!

    QOTD: I haven’t actually drank it, yet, but a friend of mine brought me back a 500ml bottle of 2004 Barkan Merlot Reserve from the minibar where he stayed in Israel. Really looking forward to trying it one of these days!

  • QOTD: Jack Daniels (straight) from a mini-bar in a Cancun, Mexico hotel when I was 15. First time I got trrrrrashed!
