Thread: Vegas

I am headed down to Vegas on Sunday for 4 days to attend a conference. I won't have too much free time, but is there anything I should check out? I'm not much of a gambler, so I don't really care for casinos, but I'd like to see something about Vegas that isn't necessarily the most common thing.

Any suggestions?

You didn't mention if you have a car or any means of transportation. Cause if you don't you're pretty much stuck at the strip.

Yeah, I don't think I'll have a vehicle and I'll be at Caesar's Palace. I guess there's no public transit in Vegas? Or is it not worth trying?

Shakes are great there, too. Fries must be eaten hot.

Ok, I'll be sure to check it out

Here's the menu...

and here is their "secret menu" there are other ways to read the secret menu but before i had my first in-n-out i found this an enjoyable read!!

The Ultimate In-N-Out Secret Menu (and Super Secret Menu!) Survival Guide | A Hamburger Today


also the Neapolitan shake is really good!

If you are a car enthusiast, there is a really cool car collection that you can check out at the Imperial Palace-- they even have quite a few Duesenbergs there.

And, if you like thrill rides, the Big Shot on top of The Stratosphere is fun. It's kinda spendy, but I think it's worth it; I also recommend going at night, the view is incredible.

I think I might have to try the Animal Style. I could probably just eat that and be fine for about 24 hours...of course, I'd have to sleep for about 18 of those, like a lion.

Actually Bruno, this is one of the few normal places where you wished they would serve a large US sized meal.. Comparable in portion to a 'Quick Giant' menu.

I'm curious how many call girl advertisements someone could get if they took every piece of paper offered to them on the strip. It could become a new game. See who gets the most, recycle them.
