Win Free Passes to the AVN Expo here
As you have probably noticed, the holiday season is here with Christmas and New Years just around the corner. What that means is that the
16th Adult Entertainment Expo and Adult Novelty Expo and the 31st Annual AVN Awards cannot be far behind. In fact, it is less than a month away with the Expo beginning January 15, 2014 at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. Since it is the holiday season and I know that money is tight for some, PimpsPromo is going to begin giving away
FREE tickets to
Fan Fest 2014. If you have never attended, this is your chance to attend and save $80 per ticket in the process.
First things first; you must be at least 18 years old to attend; it is Las Vegas so you know they will be checking ID’s. Secondly, these tickets will be for Thursday, January 16, 2014. If you cannot make it that day please do not ask for the tickets and leave them for someone that can be there. I do not know how many passes I will be giving away yet; I will start with five pairs of tickets and if the response is good, I will give away more. The more people that respond, the more passes I will have to give away. So, how do you win? Read the rest of this entry »

These photos are from the AVN Holiday Party which was held Monday evening, December 2, 2013 at Staples Center in Los Angeles. In a tradition that was started by [AMA Content] Joe Laughlin back in 2010 (if not before) and recently joined by AVN, members from different areas of the adult entertainment industry took over several suites at Staples Center to watch our Los Angeles Kings. Last night, the Kings hosted the St. Louis Blues in a 3-2 victory. While the score looks like it was a close game, St. Louis did not score until the third period; it was nice to be there to see the Kings win.
Before the game, several of us were invited to go out on the ice for photos; then they let us spend some time taking shots on goal. Even though I have never used a hockey stick I managed to score a hat trick (three goals) which happened to be the same number of goals scored by the Kings. I am not entirely sure it was coincidence. It was a pretty awesome experience for all of us, especially for those that had never been to a professional hockey game. There were big smiles all around.
Thanks again the Joe and AVN for a fun evening and barring any strikes, I look forward to joining you again next year. Happy Holidays and Go Kings Go. Read the rest of this entry »
