Of Halo and Hookers
Player Chronicle -- Posted on May 18 2008
Did any of you catch the "news" about the 13-year-old Texas boy who got busted in a hotel room with his buddies after they ordered up a couple prostitutes?
It seems the Newark, Texas boy found the credit card offer mailed to his father too enticing to resist [must have been a good percentage rate! ]. After filling out the application and pertinent financial data, he was issued a $30,000 credit limit on a brand spanking new card.
What to do with $30,000 burning a hole in your pocket? If you're like most 13-year-olds [I hope you can note the dripping sarcasm here], you rent out a luxury suite at a swanky hotel, take all your best buds on a shopping spree where you pick up things like a new XBox 360 and Halo, and order room service to bring you copious amounts of Dr. Pepper, Oreos and Fritos.
How to pull this off without raising the suspicion of the hotel concierge? Why, you simply claim that you and said buds are blowing off some steam after soundly defeating all comers in a massive World of Warcraft tournament! Yes, that's the ticket!
Only when Ralphie (I can only imagine a Red Rider BB gun was on his wish list with a name like that), asked the room service guy where they could "score some chicks" and were "willing to pay" did the red flags finally go up.
When the police were finally called to intervene, they found Ralphie and friends engaged in a blistering round of Halo with two high-priced ($1000 each) hookers.
Is there a moral to the story? Heck, I don't know. There's definitely no morality!
I don't know. Things are different now than when I was 13. I don't think I ordered up my first prostitute to play video games with until I was at least 15. [Tongue planted firmly in cheek I hope you can all tell!]

Posted On May 22 2008I'm glad I check my mail before my boys do! I wouldn't want some fake credit app used like this, unless I could share in the Oreos and Dr. Peppers.
My guess is the "escorts" weren't too good at Halo though. Maybe they should have got "Hookin' Mama: Hook Off" for the Wii! -

I had not seen this but it is hilarious and thanks for sharing this one for sure! I see a whole new industry rising from this example...charging people to come over and play multiplayer games with them, lol...I'd be a gaming prostitute any day -

Posted On May 18 2008I read that article a few days ago, and nearly died laughing. The hookers never even got busted for their "work" as they never got around to "doing the deed". I believe one of them said she thought something was awry when the kids wanted to play XBox instead of getting down to business.
