: It must be good to be an NBA Player. MediaTakeOut.com learned that on Tuesday night, the Orlando Magic's Rashard Lewis bought out the bar at popular Houston nightclub The Office.
That's right guys, he bought each and every drink for the 300+ people at the club - for the entire night. According to one of MediaTakeOut.com's spies at the event, people in the club were popping bottles of champagne like it was nothing. And word is the night's tab came out to a whopping $50,000.
Shoot, Rashad should be glad that we weren't there. We'd have ordered about 12 bottles of Chrissy, stuffed 'em in our purse - and kept it moving...
MAN!!! this nukka is so stupid.why would u do some sh!t like that. buy some land or give gifts to sick needy kids or something useful not buy the bar drinks.what if some underage teen got drunk and left and got in a car accident u will be the on to blame.i swear these NBA players AND NFL players do stupid *** with their money
Yeah the Office is Cool . Im over LMAO! Yeah You are definately HOOD if you dont know where and what the Office is. By the way... All the celebs be there. Ive seen T-Mac & Rockets Team Mates( all the time), Matumbo, Mannie Fresh, Allen Iverson , Boris Kojo, Latoya & Slim (just to name a few...and the list goes on .... Oh Lord watch how all the People come showing up at the Office now because of this Article .LOL
@ CSchuma08
I said the same thing ...But you know HOOD People are not used to UPSCALE. SO they may try it , but go say the people are TOOOO Stuck up or something along those lines !!!LOL And probably won't come back. I havent been in a min . I might go on Tuesday. It just be hard to go out through the week and have to get up and go to work in the morning. I think a lot of these people dont have JOBS LOL
I love the office, it's a nice club, but for all those who said it was a waste of money and he needs to do something to help the needy. Please know, early that evening at his old high school Elsik, he threw a toy & clothing drive for childern in need.
So what if he decided to enjoy the city he was orignially from and let others have a good *** on him!
lol At the ones that live in Houston and have never heard of the Office. I'm in Beaumont and I've been there. Very nice club. My azz got lost the first time I went... wait I get lost every time I go to Htown. lol I've heard a few things about this young man and yes he has done some good things. But hey its his money, he is a grown man, so that means he can do what he want.
4 all ya'll that keep saying "haters" this & "haters" that...well I'd like to see you spend 50thousand so frivolously...I bet ya'll broke *** wouldnt even by ya homegurls nothing 2 drink if u had $$$ like that!
CoBonner is right...put that money towards something positive...getting everyone drunk definitely isnt positive.
I am a big fan of MTO...I had to create an account just so I could comment on this one. Okay now MEDIATAKEOUT I for one am *** at you!! Not for putting Rishard on blast but for big upping "The Office" now its going to be flooded with thirsty hoodrats wanting free drinks...yall can have Glo for that!! Lol If you dont know about The Office then you must be a club "Reminisce", Pink Monkey, ABN typa person=low budget. "Anyway if you got it then it aint trickin" let him gon on buy out the bar...I still want to know whats the big deal with him buying the bar?? He got it!

LOL at all the ones claiming to go to this upscale *** club. But when asked the question of where is the club located all you can get is its downtown. Hell there are lots of clubs downtown. Guess I'm out of the loop cause living in SUMMERWOOD, making 6 figures, having 2 degrees don't constitute me as GHETTO. *** too bad I can't get a welfare check like most and spend it on one outfit, nails, and one drink. Trying to get to most of the clubs when its "LADIES FREE" until. LMAO
No one can ever be OVERPAID, if you boss pays you whatever, then he can afford it. GET THAT MONEY !!!! but it could have been put to better use. Trying to impress folks with you money will "GET YOUR *** GOT". Now ever dirty ***/i/g/g/a and b/i/t/c/h in H-town is gonna be looking to catch his *** slippin.
@ caine - mto never stated he played for the houston rockets.
yall are some haters. this man is in a 'whole 'nother' tax bracket. spending 50 *** in the club for him is the equivalent to you spending 50. he was probably paid to even be there. some of you would have been the main ones drinking for free. LOL
Just because you dont know a "physical address" of a place doest mean ish. If you go to a place often you just know where it is and how you get there. You dont pay attention to the Numbers on the address . Hell if your homegurl called & asked you where it was you would say something like Turn Right on Main and its right by the ICON Hotel . LOL
Kinda torn on this one. On one hand, I hate I missed the party--I love my city but things like this don't happen too often, at least they didn't when I hit the clubs (before my son LOL).
As far as how he spends his money...it's HIS money. All of the "other" celebs do stuff like this all the time, but we criticize each other for doing the same time. Besides, many NBA players contribute to charity (even if it is for a tax break---let's keep it real people).
And yes, The Office is one of the hottest spots here right now, but it is upscale. If you only hang out at the hood spots, you won't know about it. I'm just mad one of the hood clubs (D1) is walking distance from my house...SMH.
@tiaje contrary of what you may want to believe but your financial status , number of degrees or where you reside has nothing to do with being in the "loop" of things(my cousin who has a very lucrative salary who resides in Mo. Co. (LAKE OLYMPIA Tina Knowles has a home there) has been there...the thing is why comment and say there is NO CLUB IN HOUSTON cslled the Office if you dont know
@HTOWNQT right on point I have no clue somthime of the adresses of places i frequent...but trust i can always go right to them.
the office is not snobby its just young professionals or soon to be just being social and networking. YOu dont have to worry about hoods in the club acting up is all!
Personally im a RedCat and Skybar fan..so ditto to each his or her own!
Some folks need to get there info Correct. I was at The Office on Tues. and yes it does exist. The club was off the chain. Lewis did buy the bar. but did not buy all the bottles. AND FOR THE IDIOT THAT SAID HE DOES NOT PLAY FOR THE ROCKETS....NO SH** HE FROM THE "H" AND WENT TO HIGH SCHOOL HERE! GET YA MIND RIGHT
I live in H-town and the Office is one the upscale grown and sexy clubs so if you are not grown and sexy then you would not know what they are taking about. The Office and the Tribeca Lounge be on especially on Fridays and sometime Saturday's. however I am from the Chi and I aint going to lie the clubs in H-town dont have *** on the clubs in the Chi. I love the city I live in, it grows on you but when you have been around and especially growing up in Chicago and travled alot you can compare. But I aint gon lie again Carro's remind me of the The Taste on 63rd and Lowe in the Chi straight hood. Only go there when you are straight angry and ready to whip some ***. Happy Holidays everybody!!
