Anyone ever been to Las Vegas? I live fairly close, so its a common weekend destination around here. I've been a couple of times, but I recently turned 21 and am about to go with my boyfriend until Friday.
Anyone been there? Enjoy gambling? Visit the Bunny Ranch? Any interesting stories?
We're staying at the Tropicana because I wanted to stay at a place with a nice pool. I like pools. :o
I've seen some documentaries on Vegas, and it looks pretty nice.
Seedy and evil, but nice. :D
I demand this thread be changed to "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" That's the damn slogan. ;_;
Pronouns and propernames! Pssha!
I really wanna go when I turn 21. I just don't know if tittie bars or casinos are the best way to spend my money. :cool:
My sisters took me, but it wasn't that fun since I couldn't gamble. We went to M&M World though, and I got pink and purple and black M&M's, which were neat.
Tropicana has an awesome pool. I stayed there the first time I went to Vegas when I was a kid. I think I've been there about.. 9 times. Monte Carlo is my favorite hotel (that I've stayed in). I haven't been there since my 21st birthday though. I gotta go again sometime.

We also went to the children's museum and saw Sigfried and Roy.
I wanna go see the tigers. :}~
Tigers roxxors :love:Quote:

It's boring if you can't gamble. It was hot, so I just stayed at the arcade all day. I stayed at the Luxor.
It surely was a sad day when that tiger attacked Roy. The show just isn't the same without both Siegfried and Roy.
I've only been to Vegas in passing, never really strayed down the main strip. It's something I'd definitely enjoy doing sometime soon.
Take care all.
Watch out for hookers. Just about ever girl who hits on you is a hooker there.
Plus there's porn everywhere. :D
Oh man, lets go.
I'll probably be either driving through there or near it on my way to Salt Lake today. Never been there but it'd be nice if I could walk around there for an hour or so.
So...someone like me has a chance of being hit on?Quote:

I like Nevada as a whole, because you can get hooker trading cards! They have them in those free newspaper boxes, and it has a picture of a girl (or guy) and a little blurb about why you should order them. I love collecting them!
I'm going with Mandee and a lot of our friends in July. I'm so excited. We're staying at the Flamingo. My days will be spent poolside, by night I'll be playing nickle slots and drinking free booze! Yay!
My Cousin is the VP of Ceasar's Palace. That's right. Free accomodations, bitches.
You tell us this now? WHY DIDNT YOU GET US FREE ROOMS AT CEASER'S PALACE YOU TURD!?Quote:

I remember the last time I went there, I wen to the Excalibur arcade while my family was gambling and I was playing Soul Calibur II, and all these people challenged me, but I beat em' all... I had like a 9 or 10 win streak, and then this big guy challenged me and I beat him too, but he got all pissed off! He was like all cussing and being scary... I thought he was gonna punch me in the mouth. He kept rematching me and I kept beating him and he got more and more mad... I thought about letting him win since I was really scared, but decided my pride was more important- heehee! He just left after a few more games. Hmmm... now that I think about it, not a very exciting story... Sorry for wasting the time of those who read it.
Not my fault! Do you have any idea how much they say that on CSI? @_@Quote:

I play blackjack usually when I'm at nightclubs and it's fun.
Yeah, and they cost about, oh, 50 times more than I would spend on any female (for non-hooker-related reasons, you perverts)Quote:

I was there once when I was 14. I had a good time. I couldn't gamble (not that I would do much of that anyway), but I did play lots of arcade games.
Never been there. =X It looks like so much fun! If I'm ever in America, I wanna spend some time there.
Haven't been in a few years. The last time I went we caught a couple of Phish concerts and stayed up until 4 in the morning every morning playing nickle slots and drinking Coronas. Good stuff. :)
If the Excalibur is in Vegas, i've been to Vegas.
Big towns like that can be slick because fancy hotels make all their money on gambling and the rooms stay comfortably cheap. There's a trio of hotels in the middle of nowhere near the state line in Nevada - Buffalo Bill's, The Primadonna and *coughmumbledally* - that have fantastic, suite-style rooms for around twenty dollars a night because the twenty-four hour casinos rake in cash. Buffalo Bill's is known for the Desperado, a huge-but-aging coaster i wasn't old enough to find the bravery to ride when we were there oh so long ago.
Yep, it's in Vegas.Quote:

I went to Las Vegas once. It was very fun. I remember going to some of the stores and buying things with my mom. It's a very fun place. I went to this M&M place where they had M&M colos I have never seen before.
Fact: Las Vegas means The Oasis.
Yeah, I have to go to the M&M store to pick up a bunch of different colors for my friend's mom. I cant wait to explore Vegas for real... not to mention playing Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas all day.
Why did the tiger try to eat Roy in the first place?
It was tired of all the meat it was getting, and wanted to try a little fruit instead.
*rimshot*
And oh yeah, I visited Vegas when I was 15. My family stayed at the Flamingo Hilton. I plan on going back next year when I turn 21, so I hope to have learned hot to gamble efficiently by then. :D
