    God Vegas makes me sick to my stomach. Just reading this thread I feel like I need to shower. Just have never understood the draw. I mean I guess if you like being surrounded by drunk obnoxious frat boys smoking cigarettes....or stuck in the middle of a Jersey Shore reject convention. Yuck.

    fully agree, vegas is definitely not my jam. the real Jersey Shore is a lot more fun.

    Can't do that either bro. Just a not as flashy version of Vegas. To be fair I've only been to Atlantic City.

    If you are a people watcher then vegas downtown(not the strip) is perfect. You will see everything.
    however to solidify your point, there was a weightlifting championship convention at the golden nugget. So even downtown had a high percentage of jersey shore “see my muscles?” Vibe.
    And I've never seen so many women that scared me. Meaning they could take me out, and I am a pretty big guy!
    I do agree though, I will be showering twice once I get home!

    Also, the thought of hitting a jackpot is attractive to those of us who don't make a ransoms paycheck! :)

    The only thing I like about Vegas is laying by the pool drinking good drinks and taking in the scenery. The casinos are grimey and full of degenerates who struggle to pay rent cause they spend it all on the hope to hit it big

    Which is why I don't spend any time in the casinos. It's shows, games, pools, golf, and occasional sports book for me.

    We rented a car and drove from Vegas to Lake Elsinore, Ca. yesterday morning and then caught a flight out of LAX today that had a transfer in Vegas that I missed when booking.

    Fyi. The new Ford Explorers are the shit!!!!
