Skitzo Calypso Takes on Atlantic City!
Skitzo Calypso took a well needed vacation to Atlantic City this past weekend to celebrate a close friend's Bachelor party!
The boys gambled and lost! In an effort to lift their spirits, they stopped into Trump's Beach Club for hours of uninhibited inebriation (including shots of Tequila and Tabasco).
Later that evening the boys had the ladies swooning at an all nude strip club! Money talks!!
What happens when 9 adult men get obliterated and stumble 'helplessly' into a strip club? Let's just say – chaos!
It’s been reported that one gentleman took off his shirt and adorning a stripper’s top!! Amazingly, he was tipped.
