Mcraccoon In Las Vegas

McRaccoon had a plan to steal again… He would usurp all the theatrical arts. No holding back, mind running high on ambition, he’d rule Vegas, from the start. He would dominate Sigfrid and Roy, with only a plan and his illustrious, smarts. But he needed our help… Did we dare help out? Or would he break our hearts? When we heard the plan… We cheered him on…He really was so very amazing! Riding high on a dream… He could win with his scheme, and the right connections. So GrandFather Troll, made a quick call… to Norway… and all of his relations! After a time, deals were struck; contracts were signed…yes, for use of their dragons! Now, backers were found, financing his show, with first pick on the strip, as a bonus. We couldn’t believe, what we were about to see, Dragons were coming to Vegas! For a year and a day, he’d have his own way, but, naturally, we’d monitor his boldness. After all, they had to get here, without incident, so preparations had to be flawless! Publicity well known, and security in place, MCRac rode into Vegas on the dragons. He and the Trolls set the dragons down, amid applause, and yes, jets circling above us. The President, allowed nothing less, to protect his people, he admitted to being cautious. Instead of danger, found… the dragons allowed everyone to touch them, in celebration. The Trolls were there, to make sure everything went well, as Hollywood bowed asunder. And McRac, signed autographs, with a shortened new name more befitting, his grandeur. Finally, everyone won, McRac was set for years, and our worries, had been unfounded. The dragons, you know, are now publicity hogs, and frolicking, so don’t miss the shows. Our actor Trolls, who flew in with McRac, are the hit of the strip, in their very own show. And guess who’s got the best seats in both the theatres? To Sigfrid and Roy: your show must go on. But, if you can’t beat us… come… join us! And to all else, I’ll be home, at Troll Lake… as will the rest… sooner or later.

I used a lot of commas and short choppy phrases to bring out the energy of a racoon busting with energy and bigger than life.
