ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOR: Vegas Casino Buffet Stunt in Poor Taste Goes Viral

A social media influencer with 1.6 million TikTok followers influenced thousands of people to hate him after his latest post. On a visit to the Palms Las Vegas buffet, a man who calls himself “Mister Lewis Lux” harassed staff, wasted food, and made a general asshat out of himself for the sake of some exposure for his social media channels.
In the video, “Mister Lewis” piles two plates so high with whole lobsters, one falls off on his way back to his table.
“Oh well,” he says as he steps over it.
A Palms buffet manager approaches his table and, quite calmly and reasonably, explains that a sign at the buffet specifies only one lobster per plate, and that he must finish all eight he already took before returning for more.
“It doesn’t say you have to eat the plate before you come back, though,” Mister Lewis angrily replies, a statement that neglects to address his transgression.
“The casino who be taking all your money has a problem with me taking some lobster all you can eat?” he says in a voiceover as he films himself dripping butter on his lobsters and then dancing around his table.
“At only $80, this deal is definitely worth it,” his voiceover concludes, “but the way that they treated me made me want to leave immediately.”
The video ends with Mister Lewis depositing at least six of the eight lobsters into a trash can in the kitchen, while two staffers tell him he’s not allowed back there.
“They treated me like trash,” reads a caption overlaying the scene, which ends with a shot of the perfectly good lobsters at the bottom of the trash can.
The video has so far received 45,000 views on YouTube, 21,200 on X/Twitter — 2.3 million more when it was shared there by @LasVegasLocally — and 12,660 Instagram likes.
Rage Eating
The comments were universally negative across all platforms.
“POS no respect for other guests, the staff, or those involved with the production of these goods. Selfish as hell,” commented Instagram user hamelinsghost.
“This got you views, congratulations. You’re still a disgusting person who throws excessive and expensive food away while there are people who are actually hungry,” commented X/Twitter user @pelota_en.
“Disgusting behavior,” echoed YouTube user @chaoticthegod.
Mister Lewis, who apparently is based in Los Angeles, branched out for this stunt — both geographically and in his subject matter. Usually, he orders the most expensive liquor in a bar and then forces bartenders to make a cocktail with it as he humiliates them.
One Reddit user claimed to have quit his job bartending at the Chateau Marmont because of a scene he once created there.
“Yelled drink orders at me from the pool,” the Redditor wrote. “I told him to come to the bar and order. He said, ‘Sweetie I’m new money I can talk to you however I want.’”
The Palms did not reply to Casino.org’s request for a comment.

What a sad loser, one can only hope he stops making videos after this
This person has no regard to others waiting in line to get in. Wasted those lobsters he threw away. He should be banned in all restaurants. His privilege attitude is so rude and obnoxious. I don't understand why some people follow his Instagram or post.
It's not surprising to see that people like this exist. No actual skills but to sit in front of a camera, disturb people and act like a pig. A fool. We call these "content creators."
Considering his behavior, actions and attitude, The staff was quite nice to him. Casinos have security for this...I want to see a video of him being tossed out on his ass.
He has followers? Who is dumb enough to follow him? It’s so funny to waste food and act like he’s somebody? Bald goofy nobody!
This guy sounds like he’s too full of himself. Who’s even making this guy popular?!
if ever an assassin's bullet was meant for someone...this mother f'er is the target. hope I do not run into him at a place where I am dining, he dies right where I find him,.
