There is a commercial airing for the Borgata Casino in Atlantic City in which, oddly, 90% of the ad features about 100 people on Vespas. What scooters have to do with Casinos, I have no idea.

I did a little research and found that the ad featured members of the New York Scooters club. Apparently, they paid each scooterist $150 a day for about three days of work in the middle of July. Kind of cool.

I wish I could pull off riding a Vespa, but I’m too freakishly tall and Vespas are too damn small. Oh well. Regardless, I would never ride to a Casino by Vespa.
