Brock N Roll Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Haha but seriously I think the best thing to do is just go and have nothing really planned. That's what I did first time I went and it was a blast. Just take it all in, its quite the experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3arl Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Bring comfortable shoes. You will walk like 15 miles a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronniegwilliams Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 plan absolutely nothing. seriously, don't plan a goddamn thing, that's the only way to have an awesome time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiglebowski Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Bring comfortable shoes. You will walk like 15 miles a day. Taxis. You gotta cut loose in Vegas. Can't pinch pennies (well you can, it is just not worth it to travel a thousand miles and then walk around until your feet ache instead of taking a $15 taxi ride).

Can't pinch pennies (well you can, it is just not worth it to travel a thousand miles and then walk around until your feet ache instead of taking a $15 taxi ride). If you know where you're going then def take a taxi. But if you're gonna roam and explore then you gotta walk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronniegwilliams Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Agreed on bringing comfortable shoes. I didn't bring anything but flip flops (for the record, I hate flip flops) and I ended up with the worst bruises I've ever seen on the bottoms of my feet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnstiles Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Get the drinks that are in the shapes of things. Like a guitar margarita. Bet on the number 13 on roulette and get the breakfast buffet at Paris. It's expensive but it's worth it. And I have never taken a taxi in vegas. I walked my ass off and it was incredible. I love vegas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiglebowski Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I don't know how true it is but I was told to stay in groups if you walk off the strip. Went to some bars that were and definitely walked by some really ghetto apartments and overall shady looking places that were only a couple minutes off. Oh and I'll be the first -- spearmint rhino. Gotta go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronniegwilliams Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I've only been to Vegas once, for my honeymoon, funny enough- I'll be heading there with my girlfriend in a couple of months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhook Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Go to Fremont Street, the strip is for the rich and powerful, Fremont is for the scum, it's awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Go to Fremont Street, the strip is for the rich and powerful, Fremont is for the scum, it's awesome. I agree, the old strip is way more fun. I'd recommend spending at least one night in that area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhook Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 When I go I never even go to the strip, I stay and spend my time on Fremont. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futures Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 YES go to Freemont! Also, literally right across the street is a really cool bar called The Griffin (511 Fremont Street). A lot of locals chill there and it is seriously the coolest atmosphere ever. The interior of the place is REALLY cool, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I was going to hate Vegas but I'm always finding myself wanting to go back. I think it's fun every three or four years. I couldn't imagine making an annual trip or anything like that.

I was only there for 2 days back in January 2012. I will never understand the idea of bringing small children to Las Vegas, though. There were sooo many families with small children.

jerseydave77 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I used to go every year in March to bet on March Madness. It was awesome. Then I crashed an ATV in the desert one trip, had a serious concussion, temporarily lost sight in one eye and many memories that were never recovered. Then I got married and had an amazing little dude. Now I go closer to once every three years. Love Vegas. I will be there in late April for a bachelor party. The notion of not planning anything is great if you haven't been there. If you have then do some planning so you are sure to get a new experience. I am going to see Ghost at the House of Blues and hit a gun range for fun. After that it's pretty in the air. Go to a rooftop bar at least once for a spell. Mandalay Bay has a great one.

jerseydave77 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I actually went looking into the idea of renting Fat Mike's house for this party but the site was down. Guess he sold it or gave up on renting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
