What's It Like Growing Up in Vegas?

"You're from Vegas? What's that like?" The dealers don't live in casinos, they couldn't afford it. And we don't learn to count cards in school, we did it after. Between the commercials advertising impossible odds, and the neon billboards in the backgrounds of TV shows, it's hard to find an accurate depiction of Las Vegas. Not just details of the Las Vegas Strip, but the strip malls and slot machines in grocery stores, too. Surviving is hard enough in the desert, but with a family straight out of a Southern Gothic play, read along as a patchwork guide to survival is laid out. Loyal friends, overdosing in clubs, and some Taekwondo. Cheating women "cheating" blackjack. 800 pounds of human beings crammed in an airless two-door car trying to make minimum wage in the desert heat. That's what it's like growing up in Vegas.
