Vegas Weekend
 

Somehow my wife Ok'd me to "chaperone" her brother and a few of his friends in Vegas for his 21 bday.

Headed out there this weekend. Staying at the Bellagio, got a good deal on a room then got it upgraded to a suite somehow for like 20 extra bucks per night.

Any recommendations on what or where to hit up?

I've been a handful of times so I know a few places, just looking for any other ideas. Where is the best sports book for the Sunday games?

Caesars Sportsbook is second to none, IMO.

Not a super exciting recommendation, but there’s an In-and-Out burger on the strip on the Linq Promenade now. Pretty good burger and a cheap lunch for Vegas standards.

I've read Caesars is the best book. I walked thru it a few years ago but never stopped. Hopefully it goes well this weekend.

Calling Nzoner...

The bus tour is a decent thing to do its not all that expensive.

I go once a year during the football season with my brothers. We are going in two weeks because, you know, the Chiefs play the Packers on Sunday Night Football.

Vegas is a great town with a ton to offer. Its kind of important what you are in to.

I love small concert venues. Last year we hit Jimmy Buffett (big concert) then the next night saw Willie Nelson and his family. Both were great. We are all in to sports gambling, so we hand out at the Sportbooks. My favorite is at the Cosmopolitan. Cool place. Well done, and free shit to do, shuffleboard, and whatever. If I'm going to gamble (table games), I hit the Cromwell.

People watching is always fun. I enjoy buying beers off of some dude with a cooler in front of the Bellagio fountains for some reason. We hit Freemont street for a night in old Vegas, I kind of like the Gold Nugget casino. Vic & Anthony's is a good steak house.

This year we watching the last games Sunday Night Football at Lagasse’s Stadium at The Palazzo. You need to call for a reservation. So each individual have a minimum to cover, ours is $125, but I can probably drink that or I'll order a nice steak. The stadium is full of TVs, you have a leather couch and all that shit. Last year I watched the game at some BS bar in the Planet Hollywood - not going to do that again.

I'm a foodie (ie FAT). So Vegas is great for that.

Grab a breakfast sandwich at Eggslut in the Cosmopolitan.

I'm a Thomas Keller fan, so I always hit Bouchon at The Venetian (10th Floor)

If I want to hit a buffet, I hit the Wynn on Friday or Saturday night when there is seafood.

Or there is a Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab - northern part of the Strip.

There are some good karting experiences we have done. We have also done a half day kayak trip from the Hoover Dam - really cool to see it from that perspective. The water is cold. This year we are doing Speed Vegas where you take an exotic car our on a road course.

Let me know what you are into, and I can maybe make some other recommendations. We were just three 40 year old dudes so we don't do anything crazy. Great time of year to go out.

Thanks Hoover

I already have reservations at Joes, lol, it’s my go to place for a steak

They’ll wanna just gamble so they can hang wherever for that. I have heard good things about the Bouchon elk have to try that

Then hit it up for NCAA. For NFL Sunday, Westgate Football Central is a must do.

Where is west gate?

I like watching football at the MGM. Great spot. Also, hit up Ellis Island for late night drunk food. Their steak and eggs are $6.99, and they are actually pretty good.

Otherwise, I like playing poker at the Venetian or Bellagio. The Wynn has a topless pool with a 10 dollar blackjack table nearby.

If you're going to vegas with a bunch of 21 year olds you might as well bring some sleeping pills to take the Tiger back home.
