The Strange Tale of Mirage Room #12004

While working on the new Mirage YouPube review (yes, we're gonna post it), I decided to go back and look at some photos of our prior Mirage review when I realized that we stayed in the exact same room both times!!! I can't even begin to calculate the odds on that one.... amazing.

Check this out.... here's front door in the video of the 2007 review of room #12004:

And a photo of the front door of #12004 in 2009:

Now, I'm sure there is a number of you who will quickly cry "bullshit" under the guise that we could've easily walked by Mirage #12004 and taken a snap of it and/or photoshopped in the numbers as a gag. Here's the dirty fingerprint proof:

Check out the marbling... they are identical! There is no way in hell that anyone can clone stamp intricate marbling and make it look like this... not even a reasonably talented whiz like yours truly.

I really wonder what the odds of this happening are and - more importantly - why our luck in the random number generation situation hasn't transferred to the Mirage's slot machines.

Wow that's crazy....I like the exposed shiny brick in that bathroom, it almost looks sexy. I booked a room at the Mirage for the 2nd week of November, no plane tix yet. I hoping to meet up for your 40th birthday and finally meet you and whoever else comes out. So once I know some exact dates I can change mine as needed (they'll prob change anyway once more specials come out).
