Summer sausage party! Meet Taco, The “Weekly’s” man of the season
You need to upgrade your Flash Player
Summer means fun. And so does Vegas. And so does Taco. So when it came time for Las Vegas Weekly to stage its first summer swimsuit spread, our fancies turned to Vegas’ foremost party boy. Taco, the big-hearted, supersized, professional fratboy and Falstaffian figure of fun, is world-renowned (at least on YouTube) as the mascot-at-large of Dick’s Last Resort at Excalibur.
Bringing along a selection of last-season swimsuits from quality discount purveyors, we took our hot Taco out of his natural element and set him loose at the exquisite Venus Pool Club at Caesars Palace, where he took full advantage of the posh pool’s permission to go topless—and beyond. Turns out he’s not only a bestower of unforgettable lap dances, he does a mean Shamu impression and is a natural-born male supermodel. It ain’t really summer without the great taste of Taco!
Venus Pool Club
The Venus Pool Club is a sophisticated and secluded European-style (topless) retreat from the people who created PURE Nightclub.
Ultra-high end food and beverage choices are available, including a roving margarita and mojito cart.
With eleven cabanas, four couches, 14 day beds and chaise lounge chairs, you're sure to find the perfect spot to catch rays, watch people or just take in the lush and luxurious surroundings.
Admission is $20 for men and $10 for ladies Sunday through Thursday and $30 for men and $20 for women on Fridays and Saturdays.

Dick's Last Resort
The fun is nonstop at this Dallas-based chain’s Excalibur outpost, where the waiters pull silly tricks on unsuspecting customers, and make them wear dumb hats to boot. Food here is better than it probably needs to be, especially the Cowboy rib-eye steak and the drunken shrimp cocktail. At dessert, the Mile High Peanut Butter Pie’s a doozy. Known for its overly energetic wait staff, this restaurant is guaranteed to inflict humor on all who enter.
