In the mid-80’s Max Steingrout ran with a speed freak named Birdie Wallace. Birdie was nervous and paranoid and he made everyone around him nervous and paranoid.
Between 1985 and 1989 Birdie became the biggest importer and distributor of blow in Clark County, NV. He helped make Las Vegas become known as ”Sin City.”
He supplied coke to everyone who supplied coke to everyone in Las Vegas: dealers, valets, bartenders, taxi drivers, strippers, whores, hotel managers, stars and performers.
If you did blow in Las Vegas in the late ’80s it probably came from someone who got it from someone who go it from Birdie Wallace.
In the end, it didn’t last. He made too many people nervous and he started to make too much money.
One day Birdie flew away, allegedly with a bullet to the back of his head, in the back of an El Dorado.
