Mandalay Bay Road and Giles Street

In the story · The Hangover (the man in the trunk)

The friends open the trunk of the car and out jumps Mr. Chow, a small-time gangster, completely naked; he attacks them and runs off. The scene was shot on an empty lot at this corner, with the Luxor hotel in the background.
