What do y'all think of meeting for dinner Saturday the 7th at Top of the World at the Stratosphere? We plan to then hit Old Vegas and gamble like never before.

If your planning to go to Fremont/downtown anyway, would say to just go to Oscar's at the Plaza. A legit good restaurant with awesome views of the Fremont Street Experience (it's where they filmed part of Casino).

Otherwise in that north strip area, the steakhouse at Circus Circus is shockingly good given the price/location, and then you could go over to the Peppermill for oldschool Vegas cocktail lounge vibe.

Vegas clubs are great people watching tho; it’s a time warp where striped club bro button downs are still cool and plastered chix stumble out at closing carrying their heels all over the casino.

Ok locked in great tix for Zumanity Saturday at 9:30. I'm assuming our group is Spence, me, sis and shosta -- but can change things as plans settle into place for people. Also, I got you if you're strapped but I wouldn't refuse $80 paid per seat either.

Otherwise will never say no to a drink.

From there, hang around in the bar at the top of the Stratosphere, then catch a show. Since it doesn't seem like bebps can make it, I'm temporarily granting myself his role of corralling everyone to a show. I'm honestly thinking this super sexy Zumanity thing could be fun. After that... explore Old Vegas, and hit some more clubs.

Just FYI, that is a lot of going back and forth. You're going from the north end of the strip (some people consider the Strat off the strip) to NYNY at the south end, then back the other way and more to get to downtown, and then back the other way to go to clubs (not much for clubs in downtown AFAIK - but I'm not a clubbing guy). It doesn't look like much on Google Maps, but it will be slow going (and probably expensive) on a Saturday night, especially with college/pro football starting. I would probably just check out the Fremont Street Experience on Friday when you are going to Oscar's anyway and skip it on Saturday. One night down there is enough for most people visiting unless they are big gamblers looking for tables with lower limits. Also be careful if you walk away from the FSE to go to other places downtown, there are a lot of panhandlers/homeless/scam artists in the area.

This is 100% great advice, don't try and go back downtown Saturday.

If you are trying to people watch at clubs stay on the strip, DTLV honestly doesn't have much on the main drag aside from whatever BS the Golden Nugget is trotting out (it was TROY or something last time in). We checked it out when it was GOLD DIGGERS and they were charging strip prices for a product orders of magnitude shittier. There will be a ton of great clubs near NYNY and Luxor is close.

As for DTLV yeah after Oscars, walk the FSE...there are some cool bars right past Neonopolis near the El Cortez. No reason to go past (or in) Container Park. If drunk don't walk too far from Fremont. If you don't care about seeing MSS/the Cal, just walk directly out from the Plaza. You can see pretty much everything in a night.

Protip: Get a drink at the 4 Queens street bar. Only get a double if a functioning alcoholic.

I stayed at the Plaza for a few days around last Halloween and the bartenders at 4 Queens got to know me by name. That's probably a bad sign. But as a drunk, that is one of the advantages of being/staying downtown vs the strip. I usually stick with beer when I am on the strip because I don't want to pay $10-15 for a mixed drink with a squirt of liquor in it, otherwise I go to one of the shops in every casino where you can get 2 tallboys and an airplane bottle for $15 or 2 of the Cutwater pre-mixed drinks in a can for $7.50. I was at NYNY last NYE and a double rum and coke was $30.

Paying for drinks in Vegas

Gambling close to the bar :

porkbun · « **Reply #96 on:** September 03, 2019, 01:06:00 PM »

No doubt, most of my days in Vegas are sitting at various video poker bars. I got absolutely blasted my last trip by 2 PM at Casino Royale because I gave the bartender a $10 tip on a comped drink and then they kept coming about every 5-10 minutes regardless if I really needed one. And then my lunch was 3 foot long chili cheese dogs from their tiny food court, which is one of my go-to super drunk absorb the booze foods in Vegas.

brawndolicious · « **Reply #97 on:** September 04, 2019, 03:23:47 AM »

I would have gone this year if there was at least a few weeks warning. Might I suggest a mid-year trip with a good solid month of heads up?

Personally, I've never been outside the airport in the mid-west or east coast.

Tasty · « **Reply #98 on:** September 04, 2019, 09:42:28 AM »

Generally these things start getting planned 8+ months ahead of time, but I legitimately didn't know if we could go this year until the last second, and we didn't want to move the date again after we decided on a birthday trip.

And I’m just impulsive enough, combined with regret of not making the last ones, to fly my ass out there to crash it

I do sorta feel that way since no one else is coming now, that I’m sorta just crashing your trip. I can make it on my own in Vegas, if I start cramping your style let me know

I'm not too worried, we all can do our own thing and then come back together, etc.

Bebps and Kara can usually drive in from Cali but they're busy. :'(

OK. Well if shosta is actually confirmed coming back would you be cool if he got the Zumanity seat as originally planned? Apologies for dangling it out there, but blame shosta lol.

I can increase our Top of the World res to 5 if everyone still wants to come to that. (6pm Saturday.)

Also we still want to meet up at Taco Bell Cantina probably around 11pm tonight.
