They say you can dress some folks up, but you can't take their behinds anywhere.

Apparently, that was the case again last night at a lavish birthday party for Michael Vick at the Guadalajara night club in Virginia Beach Town Center.

Vick turns 30 on Saturday, and some folks were hoping to celebrate it all weekend at various locations.

So guess who shows up at some point during the party, several sources tell me -- Quanis Phillips, a Vick co-defendant in the 2007 dog-fighting case.

Now, Vick is not supposed to be associating with any of the co-defendants in the case -- and I know buddy-turned-informant Tony Taylor did NOT get an invite. Nor did I.

Anyway, from here, things get vague, because some folks who were at the party don't want it published that they were there. Some folks who might have been witnesses to some of the incident don't want it to be known if they were witnesses.

But the story goes that Quanis threatened to smash birthday cake in Vick's face, or that he actually smashed the cake in Vick's face.

Another version is that someone smashed cake in Quanis' face -- or threatened to smash it in his face.

Anyway, the confrontation moved outside -- where I'm told there were several still cameras and video cameras.

Cooler heads did NOT prevail, and 'Q' was shot in the shopping center parking lot.

It is unclear whether Vick was still around at the time of the shooting, but he was definitely not there when police arrived.

'Q' Phillips was in good condition at a Virginia Beach hospital on Friday morning.

Michael Vick's ex-pal shot at Eagles' QB's birthday party

A former dogfighting pal of Michael Vick was shot moments after crashing the NFL quarterback's birthday bash and angrily flinging cake in his face, witnesses told The Post yesterday.

Quanis Phillips, a co-defendant in Vick's dogfighting case, flew into a rage when Vick and brother Marcus Vick told him early Friday to leave the 30th-birthday party at a Virginia Beach nightclub, witnesses said.

Vick is barred from associating with Phillips under his parole agreement.

Phillips' brother was at the bash, too, and seemed to be an invited guest, mingling easily with other partygoers. But once Vick and his brother spotted Quanis Phillips, they told him to get lost, witnesses said.

Before leaving, Phillips slapped a piece of birthday cake off a female partygoer's plate, splattering the face of the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback with frosting.

"Michael didn't react. I was surprised," a witness at the bash said.

"But Marcus was the one who reacted. He had this I-can't-believe-this-just-happened, we've-been-disrespected look on his face. He was very agitated."

Phillips left the party screaming and continued hurling obscenities from the parking lot of the Guadalajara nightclub, witnesses said.

"Phillips was still yelling, even outside, then five minutes later, a shot rang out in the parking lot," a witness outside the club said.

A Virginia Beach police spokesman said last night that the probe into the shooting was continuing and that no one had been arrested.

Phillips, who was sentenced to 21 months in prison for his role in Vick's infamous Bad News Kennels dogfighting operation, was treated at Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital before being released.

Michael Vick, a star at Virginia Tech, was back on his home turf, helping friends run a youth football camp at nearby Hampton University.

When he applied for reinstatement in the NFL after his release from prison, the veteran signal caller was warned by league brass to steer clear of unsavory characters.

"We have been looking into it to determine the facts," NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said.
