Behind the Velvet Ropes: What Really Happened When Tiger Woods Hit Vegas Clubs

Dec. 14, 2009 — -- They may be nothing more than heavy cords draped between weighty stands, but the velvet ropes at the Las Vegas nightclubs that Tiger Woods frequented stake out a world of debauchery few outsiders can conceive.

Call girls? Got 'em. Drugs? They'll be delivered to the hotel suite. Bottle upon bottle of alcohol? Of course -- often for no cost at all.

According to insiders, the clubs and lounges of Vegas -- hands down, the most hedonistic nightlife scene in the nation -- roll out the red carpet for their celebrity clientele, including the disgraced pro golfer and his sports star buddies Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley. Their wish is the venue's command.

"Sometimes the treatment begins before you even come to Vegas," said Emma Trotter, a Vegas-based entertainment reporter who previously worked for lifestyle and nightlife magazine 944. "If the VIP client wants to arrange to come into Vegas for the weekend, the VIP host at the club of their choosing will arrange everything for them, from the air transport to the limo service to bottle service to VIP entry, plus any extras that they want, like certain types of girls being at their table when they arrive. Sometimes they're pretty girls who are just in the club, sometimes they're models, sometimes they're escorts."

Stars' requests can get pretty specific. Say Woods wanted a blonde lingerie model, like Jamie Jungers, a brunette porn star, like Veronica Siwik-Daniels aka Joslyn James, and a prostitute, like alleged call girl Loredana Jolie, to greet him at his VIP table? The club -- in his case, usually The Bank, Tao and/or Tryst -- would make it happen.
