Been to LV over a dozen times. Buy tix for Absinthe, if you don't mind crude humor. Try Mon Ami Gabi at Paris for Breakfast. Great food and a Patio to sit next to the strip.
Vegas Trip
- Thread starter swiacy
- Start date
We have a group of eleven going out all staying at the Mandalay Bay, found a great deal on rooms during Black Friday. Its a 15 minute walk to the stadium from the hotel. Still looking for air flights, for the wife and I and another couple. We are going out Friday through Monday, others heading out on Thursday through Monday.
First time to Vegas for many of us, cannot wait.

Kidneys stay in vegas....got a tramp stamp to cover up the crude scar.
Free Britney Spears B!tch.
There is a free tram from Mandalay to Excalibur...and a monrail that is like 8 bucks.

Just hypothetical but if the Covid pandemic is past us by September due to massive administration of shots and Nevada/California have lifted restrictions, pent up travel and lodging demand could be off the charts. Our daughter in San Diego keeps us informed about restrictions in Ca and it is far different than Iowa or the Midwest, basically they have been working at home for a year and confined to their apartment with no where to go as bars and restaurants are unavailable. California folks could hit Vegas hard on weekends in September. Just wondering if I should book rooms now?
I would book but do the non prepay route. If they still have restrictions, there could be people with rooms/flights/etc who can’t get tickets. Who knows how long this lasts.
I had fun in Vegas as a younger lad. But I despise traveling there for work.
The perfect example is a breakfast cafe in the Aria capable of seating like 700 people. There's a line of 50. One hostess slowly seating people, while 900 waiters & waitresses stand idly by. Takes about 30 minutes to get seated for no apparent reason. Drives me freaking nuts.

We took a copter ride on Kauai a few years back. It was fantastic. One week after we took the flight, that exact copter and pilot crashed.
Never stepped on a copter again!
what kind of suite are you talking about?
you can book multi bedroom suites at a ton of strip resorts for <$500/night
I would assume by the price, he's talking about a suite at the stadium
Suite at Allegiant Stadium. We will have at least a dozen going, so thought it might be fun. But Raiders charge $30,000 - $50,000 for suites. The owners sublease them for events they don’t plan to go to, so UNLV game should be a lot cheaper, but prob still way out of my range.
I spoke with someone from UNLV a few months back and the price you quoted is WILDLY inaccurate.
They haven’t actually nailed down prices for 2021 UNLV Single Game Suites yet - they advised Covid could still be an issue in September and they cannot commit to prices. (Again this was 2 months ago but the number you have listed wasn’t in the ‘Ballpark’ figure given).
You may want to actually call and discuss with them.

UNLV could have Tate Martell on their team it looks like. He was a highly rated QB in high school, went to Ohio State, and then transferred to Miami where he switched to WR. Not sure if he will be playing QB or WR at UNLV, if he does end up there.
A couple of cool things to do in Vegas:
The mob museum- in old downtown.
Hit ‘Tacos al Gordo’ for lunch- it’s on the Strip, just north of the Winn Encore. There is almost always a line, try not to go during peak meal times. Get the Adobado (it’s the pork- thank me later).
Go see Penn & Teller at the Rio- kid friendly and you can get a pic with P & T after the show.
Harrah’s across from Caesar’s has best blackjack odds on strip- offers a 2 deck shoe for only $25 and pays 3-2...
Eat dinner at ‘STK’ in the Cosmo.
If you’re a lunatic, bungee off the Stratosphere...but not immediately after eating at STK.

Anyone know the name of hat famous chili/burger place? They are originally an L.A. joint, but I know they have at least one in Vegas. Can't think of the damn name though.
