Heading out to Vegas next weekend for the Pacquiao fight. Gonna stay at my girl's parents timeshare called Worldmark at the end of the strip. Two room suite fullly comped FTW!!! Don't drink too much but I will be blowing trees like Rick Ross... Was gonna dump heavy dollars on Pac Man but the line is -700 right now.
Just a heads up. Worldmark is NOT at the end of the Strip. Technically, yes, it is on LV Blvd, but it's like 5 miles south of Mandalay. Don't expect to have easy Strip access without driving, cabbing, or shuttling. If you wanna rent a car for cheap, Go to Fox Auto Rentals right near Worldmark (on LV Blvd and Pebble).
just got back from vegas. had a blast! fyi $20 trick works. got a bungalow suite at mgm after booking basic room.
The $20 trick needs to be used EVERYTIME you guys check into Vegas. It has a very high success rate. Take your chances and book the cheapest room at a casino on the Strip and you're likely to get bumped up to a better room (yes, as nice as a suite). btw, you want a late night fix? I know half you guys on here up till the early parts of the morning... Head to the Hard Rock Casino(corner of Paradise and Harmon) and hit up the Lucky 24/7 Cafe. Why? Steak and shrimp. side of mashed potatoes and a salad or soup for a mere $7.77 on that note, i'm SOOOOOOO due for a Vegas trip. it ain't even funny.
I just booked a room for Vegas Dec 29 - Jan 2. Celebrity Spa Suite at MGM Grand for $639. Good deal ?
I know where it's at... I used to live in Vegas. I'll be driving in from Cali so I'll have a car while out there. Less than 5 days away... I'm PUMPED.
Seeing as that's for NYE, that sounds pretty good. Is that the total price for the weekend? or per night? If it's for the total weekend, I think you've got a pretty good deal. NYE prices are ridiculous... I remember when we were getting comped, we tried going and they didn't comp ANYONE. Look into the different casinos for closed circuit viewings. I'm not sure if all of them do it, but my brother caught the Pac/Cotto fight in one of the casinos(forgot which one) and I think it was like $50 per head.
Heading out to Vegas April 1st to the 4th. Best believe I am digging up all the Vegas threads to add to what I already know. My boys insisted on staying in a timeshare . I was outnumbered 5 to 1, staying off the strip FTL!
Just got back from staying at the Monte Carlo. I think I spent a grand total of 12 hrs in the room over 3 days. Went with a few friends that had never been to Vegas before. I think we hit every casino on the strip except for the new city center ones, Paris, and PH. Gotta say my favorite casino is hands down the Wynn. Also got love for the Venetian because I went on nice run playing black jack there. Didn't make it to Rhino this time around, but we hit Sapphire instead. Pretty good sights to see. I think Spearmint Rhino is better though. Went to Pure on Friday night, Playboy Club/Moon on Saturday, and hit up Caramel last night which was straight. Table service at Playboy was real fun. I like the smaller club/lounge feel to it as opposed to a packed out bigger club. All in all it was a great trip and I can't wait to get back out there hopefully this summer.
No thats the total price plus taxes for the 4 nights. I had to put down a 95 dollar deposit for it. Thats why i was like I should hop on it now.
When you check in put the 20$ between I'D and creditcard and ask if there are any complementary upgrades available. Try going to a younger person. It works most of the time
hahaha....i just came back from Las Vegas too man....i feel u on the following -those mexicans slapping those %*%%+ cards at you....i wanted to kick them in the face by the enof my trip -Best DJ's in the %*%%+ world, NY DJ's and club owners need to sit down and take notes -Tequilllllaaaaaa -What the @@!$ happened last night....i woke up with a black eye one morning.... -XS and Tao, simply the most amazing clubs ive been to in my life -slot machines are rigged, blackjack is the way to go - the MGM smells like diarrhea.
Tao is amazing and Lindsay Lohan's GF DJ's there, shes effin incredible, XS is out of this world but in the summer it must be on another level, since half the club is an outdoor pool.... BTW unless you have a connect or are coming with at least 1 girl for every guy, be ready to wait on a long *$* line and pay a ridiculous cover.
I was just there last weekend, me and my girl stay at Planet Hollywood Strip Suite, pretty dope. My boy Kevin got us into XS for FREE but it was terribleeeeeeeeeeee. They played like 5 hiphop songs the whole night, the rest was that trance, electro @%#*%*!+, my girl like it, I didn't. I just cant dance to that #%@#. I hated the DJs, I wanted to punch both them *%%[email protected]* in the throat. Also XS is waaaaaay overcrowded, like on some welfare line #%@#. I'm sticking to Body English. Im going back in May, can't wait. Def will not party at XS EVER again.
Iunno if it's just me but I'm def over the whole clubbing scene in Vegas. I'm not too old, but turning 25 and being a couple hours away from Vegas it got old real quick. You can't pass up the good eats in Vegas though. I'm either betting on sports - watching my games, at the craps table or playing blackjack. I'm good
