Tattoo Bar, Mirage Resort & Casino, Las Vegas
Drinking while choosing a tattoo may sound like a gamble, but that didn't stop celebrity tattoo artist Mario Barth (whose clients include Lenny Kravitz, Usher, and Tommy Lee) from launching the first tattoo bar: King Ink, at the 3,044-room Mirage Resort & Casino. Sure, a few other Las Vegas casinos have tattoo parlors, but only King Ink broadcasts the process on screens for voyeurs in the bar to witness—and gives you a place to dance away the pain. (The bar is open daily for Vegas-style partying from 11 am to 4 am, and for tattoo work from 11 am to 2 am.) There is a two-year waiting list to get a tattoo from Barth himself. But if you hit it big in the casino and have $10,000 to donate to the CureSearch National Childhood Cancer Foundation, your contribution will secure you one of Barth's VIP cards (embossed with his private number and e-mail) and entitle you to jump the line and get two tattoo sessions with the master.
