Music You Know; Moves You Didn't Know You Had

So it turns out that a lot of Rutneyland residents who live by the adage that the fun never started in Rutland head to the Saratoga Racino at Saratoga Springs, NY in search of a good time, no doubt secretly hoping that lady luck will deliver a windfall big enough to get them out of Rutneyland.

When a free ride presented itself to me, I could hardly pass up the opportunity to see if Saratoga really was a better alternative than a night out in Rutneyland.

Turns out, Saturday night at the Racino is quite a night and quite a sight.

Where I come from there's a place called the Gold Coast. We refer to parts of it as 'God's Waiting Room' because a large portion of the population is aged 60 and beyond. Turns out the Racino is a worthy challenger for the title.

As I navigated my way around the oxygen tanks attached to the patrons using their last breaths on the chance they might strike it rich on the slot machines, I was drawn into Vapors Nightclub, where Bud Light were furiously bastardizing Mardi Gras by handing out branded beads and masks. I won't lie, I was quite taken with the sparkly hat they gave me.

But the real action was on the dance floor where God's army were shaking their pacemakers to the sounds of a soul band. One of Vapor's claims is 'Music you know (Moves you didn't know you had)'. Let's just say, that I saw some moves I'll never forget.

I encourage you to visit Vapor's website and have a look at the images they use to promote their club. Then I encourage you to watch the videos below for a more accurate representation of Vapor's clientele.

General Larry Platt , the 62 year old who busted a move on American Idol, would be proud.
