This happened to me and my boyfriend when we went to Vegas the last time. We always go to this one restaurant, because it is so fantastic. This last time though, was a little strange.
We get there and they sit us at the bar until a table can open up. The bartender asks us if we want anything to drink while we wait and we tell him our drink order. Before he can make it though we are sat at a table. A male server comes and asks us our drink order and we tell him, but mention that we had told the bartender. He walks off to get our drinks.
Then a female server comes up and asks our drink order. At this point we are just confused. I look kind of confused and tell her that we already had our drink order taken, twice. She gets this snarky look on her face and tells us to give her our drink order, because SHE is our server. Okayyy, yeah, sorry lady, didn't realize we were supposed to give everyone else the cold shoulder. The way she said it made it sound like we had just randomly wandered around the restaurant telling people our drink order.
We only wound up with one drink each, so I'm not really complaining. It was just a really weird thing to have happen.
ETA: Almost forgot, we also had one of those gift certificate things from restaurant.com with us and we asked the first server if he wanted it at the start or when we paid and he said to hold on to it until we paid. When the female server came up she saw it on the table and said, "Annndd I'll be taking your certificate now, please."

It's low class to do that in the first place, it's downright awful to let the customer see it.
