An agreement between individuals to not discuss publicly events, conversations, or happenings they have shared in common. Applies to nights out, parties, business meetings, conversations, etc. Can be heard expressed as "What happens here, stays here."
We must keep this discussion between us. I am asking you to apply "The Vegas Rule" on this one. You know... "What happens here, stays here."

Similar to what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. If you are having a private conversation that is not to be repeated you say "Vegas Rule".
