If you have never been in Fry’s...its a warehouse of electronics, computer gear, etc. It is so popular that each store has about 30 or 40 cashiers!
From the San Jose Mercury News, In August:
Ausaf “Omar” Siddiqui was once a prized “whale” in Vegas, a high roller who demanded that casino butlers and bellboys call him “Mr. S” and fill his room with golden raisins, bottles of Dom Pérignon and Glitterati Mentissimo peppermints adorned with a single rose.
Siddiqui’s Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing July 13 in San Jose shows he’s on the hook for $11.5 million to the MGM Grand Hotel, $5.7 million to Caesar’s Palace, $2.3 million to the Palms Casino Resort, and $1 million to Hard Rock. That’s not to mention the “unknown” amounts he owes other creditors, Mohegan Tribal Gaming in Connecticut, and three high-end casinos in London — Les Ambassedeurs, Aspinalls and Maxim’s Casino Club.
On top of that, he owes money to at least five Fry’s vendors, the bankruptcy filing says. They are the same vendors who have sued him for more than $10 million, alleging he used his position at Fry’s to force them to pay kickbacks in order to place their wares on store shelves. He also faces $15 million in state tax liens, according to court records.

Again, dump the tab on the infidels.
I remember this guy..! At the casino he was a VERY picky customer who insisted on having his a$$ kissed to an unbelievable degree:
They had to stock his closets with suits, and they could never approach him from behind —many, many other things, also.
The level of detail might have surpassed the treatment insisted on by Barbara Streisand. He had made them a booklet for it all, I think.
