We Went to a Bar Made Entirely of Ice in the Middle of the Desert, Then Stripped Down Naked

Last week, the Foodbeast crew was in Vegas and after a particularly grueling night out, someone suggested we check out Minus 5, a bar made entirely of 100 percent ice. Never ones to pass up a novel drinking opportunity, we dragged our hungover bodies from the hotel room to the Mandalay Bay casino where the mythical ice bar was apparently hidden.

After a few delays on the way -- Rudy lost $200 in Blackjack and we made the obligatory margarita stop -- we found the spot tucked away in the corner above a Starbucks. At the entrance we were greeted by a babe in a hooded sweater who helped us slip into mink coats. Before walking into the actual bar, we were reminded that it's a solid -5 degrees F inside. So, in order to prevent our bodies from going into shock, we stepped through a series of rooms that gradually got colder as we neared the ice bar.

When we finally reached the spot, we saw that it houses everything a traditional bar has -- chairs, sofas, tables, bar tops, cups, etc. -- except that they're all made of frozen water.

Here's a walk-through:

As soon as you walk in, you'll be greeted by this monster:

The chandeliers are made of ice:

So are the sofas and chairs...

... even the actual bar-top is made entirely of ice. Remember, this place is made from 80 TONS of FROZEN WATER.

The cups are 100 percent made of ice. Pro tip: Do not babysit your alcohol. If your drink sits in the glasses for too long, they

will melt.

If you're really nice they'll let you play shotskis.

By the end of it, Rudy convinced us to take our clothes off because reasons. Check out the video to discover what "penguining" really is:
