LAMAR ODOM: BEING LURED BACK TO BROTHEL - 



The owner of the Nevada brothel where Lamar Odom nearly died last fall is trying to lure him back with the promise of a free night, women and booze.

Dennis Hof, who owns the Love Ranch, is letting Lamar know that if he comes back, the first night and two girls will be on the house, along with "all the Remy Martin you can drink." Hof says drugs were what put Lamar in a coma and the brothel has a no drug policy. He also assures that Lamar will be safe and says, "Don't forget, the people who work here are the one's who saved his life. We truly care about him."
