This Las Vegas Bus Will Cure Your Hangover (Allegedly)

On Saturday, the Hangover Heaven bus took its first spin around the Las Vegas Strip, picking up 10 to 15 bleary, head-clutching invalids and sticking IV needles into their arms, according to a company staffer. These miserable sufferers of veisalgia shelled out $90 for an introductory basic package to $150 for a deluxe package, chock full of vitamins and anti-nausea/inflammatory drugs, then chillaxed in slick lounges or on bunks while the fluids helped flush their pain away.
The doctor (really!) behind this says:
In the end, I feel that partiers, wine aficionados, and club-goers around the world are a medically under-served population.  They have been neglected for a long time by the medical community. Billions of dollars are poured into medical research every year to treat a variety of conditions, but hangovers receive little attention. Hangover Heaven is here to fill that void.
Finally, somebody who cares about a real medical issue; here's to hoping one comes to DC soon. Prost!
