On the night before Affiliate Summit West was to begin, I joined a group of bloggers for a dinner at Diablo’s Cantina at the Monte Carlo Hotel. The dinner and drinks were sponsored by Market Leverage and The Light Group.
Diablo’s is a Mexican restaurant that makes food that is well below average compared to Mexican restaurants in Vancouver. Fortunately, their margaritas are really good. If you go there, I recommend you just drink and don’t eat anything other than the free nacho chips and various dips every table gets. My pull pork sandwich was dry, tasteless and overpowered by BBQ sauce. The fries weren’t bad however.
The party started with bottomless margaritas for everyone. Every time I got close to finishing my margarita, the server would come over and top it up. On top of that, Dina ordered me some crazy tequila shots that came in a cup and not a shot glass. After that, I don’t remember much of what happen. However, Tim Jone took a video of me taking a normal tequila shot of Drew Bennett’s neck.
Now before you say the video displays creepy and strange behavior, keep in mind that I had already consumed three cup size tequila shots and who knows how many margaritas already. You have to be drunk to take a neck shot of Drew Bennett!

Because of the technology barrier, many would-be bloggers never start their blogs...
