resser2 0 Posted March 15, 2007 I am looking for some advice..... The wife and I are going there for 3 weeks on 3/19 Is there anything that you did when you were there that you said, That was great? or I would never do that again? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davebg 0 Posted March 15, 2007 Yeah...I wouldn't go to Vegas for 3 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted March 15, 2007 Yeah...I wouldn't go to Vegas for 3 weeks. I would also recommend that you don't pick up hookers and bang them without wearing a condom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saturday Night Beaver 2 Posted March 15, 2007 Damn, 3 weeks!!! 4 days is enough, IMO. Besides gambling, check out some nice restaurants. Aureole, Spago are good, albeit pricey restaurants. See some shows...which ones... I have no idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
resser2 0 Posted March 15, 2007 Yeah...I wouldn't go to Vegas for 3 weeks. I agree that 3 weeks is a long time, but the way the flights worked out, It was cheaper to go 3 weeks rather then 2. We are staying with my sis-in-law, so the we are saving $$ on the stay. I have some job interviews lined up while I am out there, and hope to get more while I am there. In the mean time I was hoping to get some input from others who have been there. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it is anything less than 34C, then I would definitely make it a shorter trip. 34c is about right. linky I was checking out www.lasvegasadvisor.com seems to have a decent amount of info. I just wanted to do a little cross refferencing with the geeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bandwagoneer 0 Posted March 15, 2007 Hoover dam was cool. if it's still shut down to the public because of 9/11 though. Was in Vegas three weeks ago and did a Hoover Dam tour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

30 Fat, Bald & Texan 5 Posted March 15, 2007 go to Drais. It's a steakhouse in the Barbary Coast and it's absolutely the best restaurant I've ever been to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
remote controller 137 Posted March 15, 2007 Play the 1$ "Monte Carlo" slots at Mandaley Bay. They are right by the main cashiers window. (about 30 ft. away) Feed them 100's, and bid the max. You won't regret it. You will hear this in your sleep "SPIN TO WIN" The .25 "Monte Carlo's" were also very loose at Paris. This is not a one time deal. I have paid for 4 straight Vegas trips on these machines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snuff 10 Posted March 15, 2007 Some purdy nice golf courses out there as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KSB2424 3,087 Posted March 15, 2007 Do: 1. Le Reve @ the Wynn 2. I agree with Poker at the Luxor. It is hard to find halfway cheap poker games/tourneys at the bigger casino's 3. Hang out at the Hard Rock. Don't: 1. Let the SO go to the Bellagio/Wynn to go shopping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
remote controller 137 Posted March 15, 2007 I have seen the Blue man group twice, once at The Luxor, and once at The Venetian. They are Great!!! The Breakfast Buffet at The Aladdin is awesome. Plenty of Champagne!!! Right at the end of the downtown area is a great resturant with a large glass encased area, giving you front row seats for the light show. great service!!! Tell them you are there for viewing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Recliner Pilot 61 Posted March 16, 2007 Saw one of the Cirque de Soleil (sp?) shows while I was there a few weeks ago. Definitely worth the price. They have about 3-4 in various casinos. Other than that, stay on 16, hit on....................eh, fock it no matter what you do the law of averages will nail you over 3 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
resser2 0 Posted March 16, 2007 Wow, thanks for the feedback. The Damn was on my list to see already, and maybe the blueman group. I might actually print out this thread and make it in to a "honey do" list Thanks Everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hurricane Ditka 0 Posted March 16, 2007 The cab drivers can hook you up with some of the best hookers in the world. Nothing better than getting spanked by a hooker in Vegas. Unless your phillybear who would get turned down by the Vegas hookers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jocstrap 8 Posted March 16, 2007 Places you want to try to bang your wife 1)in the limo going up the strip 2) in the elevated subway leaving MGM grand (very late night) 3) in the hot tub at whichever casino you are staying at 4) in the elevator (oops never mind that was the Cayman's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nzoner 936 Posted March 16, 2007 I'll be there 3/20 thru 3/25 with a couple of friends. One thing I will not be doing is riding this however I can say from my last trip that the view from the observation deck is quite awesome. One thing I will be doing is going to The House Of Blues on Saturday evening the 24th to see Kenny Wayne Shepherd on his backwoods Blues Tour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jerryskids 5,447 Posted March 16, 2007 Some purdy nice golf courses out there as well. Yep. You could spend a year (and a lot of money) doing stuff in the evenings. The challenge is doing stuff during the days. Lots of good golf there. Also, since you do martial arts, I'd highly recommend Ka, the Cirque show at MGM. Best Cirque show, hell best show, I've ever seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chronic Husker 85 Posted March 16, 2007 While I was checking into my hotel room last time (I think it was Emerald Isle), a black hooker with a kickin' body solicited me. You could see the girl's nipple rings through her top. The desk girl was pissed when I told the hooker my room number. And no, it didn't happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Old School 360 Posted March 17, 2007 I think the volcano on the strip is cool to watch once. And the Pirate ship battle in front of Treasure Island is worth watching once, if it is still running. The ship comes areound the corner of the building, cannons go off, people go into the water, the ship is sunk... I thought it was a pretty cool gimick.

CurlyNight's Ghost 0 Posted March 17, 2007 i'm a woman trust me on this: take your wife shopping at the venetian. We know you are a woman without announcing it. Unless you are rich, don't take your wife to any hotels for shopping. Window shopping if you dare.. At the end of the strip is an outlet mall. Sometimes you can find some good stuff in there if shopping is on your list. Also also Paris's buffet is bar none. The O show was the best I've seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
