    only one way to find out!

    BTW, there's a Shake Shack next to Monte Carlo at New York New York. Better than In-n-Out but also more expensive. Also recommend chilling and getting tea at the Mandarin Oriental. Its so fucking dope up there and relaxing.

    most dental hygenists are raging sluts, so probably. ask her to meet you at the bar downstairs (I think its called subzero or some shit like that some ice-cold themed bar)

    oh yeah, I drank at the CASINO ROYALE next to Venetian for really fucking cheap. 2 whisky cokes and 2 beers was like 15 bucks or something crazy like that.

    You were slumming it. I love that place but it is like the ghetto of the strip.

    Lyft and Uber are starting up in October.

    I've got a rental car the last two days of my trip.

    uber and lyft won't work so well on the strip because of the shitty data network and the time to get from the room to the pickup area and the traffic on the strip. I like it b/c I can go out off the strip to chinatown and other spots and get back to the strip, hard as fuck to get a cab sometimes out there.

    Can't drink if you get a rental car.

    Some people were telling me the doubledecker party bus on the strip is fun and gets you to downtown fairly quickly. You ever take that?

    Yeah it's the deuce. Better to buy the three day pass if you plan on going to Fremont and around the strip. I'm pretty in shape and gave tried to walk everywhere ands it's a terrible idea

    Just got back last night. I feel like an idiot. Got roped into a timeshare presentation to get a bunch of comps. First time I have done that. What a racket. How many times can I say "No"?? Need to watch that South Park episode again... Anyway, went to 3 shows. Love was only okay. I kind of enjoyed the cheaper show tickets. Comedy hypnotist was a blast. Here's kind of a cool thing to do: The Pub at Monte Carlo. For $130 on Sunday morning I reserved a 2 person couch. It's incredibly comfortable. It's a breakfast/lunch buffet (it's not great, but not bad) and unlimited beer, mimosas, and bloody Mary's. They basically come and bring you stuff all the time. You can watch like 4 games at once. I really got to see how much people hate the Seahawks though... lol. I guess that's what it's like when you are a good team. Love the Sportsbook in the Mirage too. That place is sick. 4 huge screens. Oregon was playing when I was in there.
