Will any poster want to go to Las Vegas?

Bellagio at XMAS week. $300 night. Table gambling $50 min bet? Who knows in the hi-level rooms. So gambling is out. If anyone with you cant spend 12 hours trying to find and get on a poker table and play while the other does what?

Don't touch the mini-bar $$$$. You have no water. Drink tap? $5 for 12 Oz bottle? Who knows? Like the Beverly Hill Billy's lugging gallon jugs back up to your room from WalMart. Embarrassing. $139 per person buffet meals? Uh nice but I dont want to weigh 300lb. Stand in line all day for breakfast or dinner buffet too. No diners, no cheap taco you can get to.

Gridlock in gridlock out. Don't move your car or 1 hour out q hour gridlock back in? You may circle the garage for an hour hoping a spot opens up. TRAPPED. You can walk out if you can find a door.


$1000s spent dehydrated and hungry. Not much fun. Good sights.

LOLLOLLLL, says the guy that has been a half a dozen times, last visit being 14 years ago.
LOL, I spent five years in the Mojave Desert, Winnie. When was the last time you were there, moron? You do know where Vegas is, don't you. I hope you know more about geography than you do about the other things you claim to be an 'expert'. Now run along and get another drink. BTW, please link to the post where I told you the last time I visited there. SMH---and we wonder why Johnny can't read.

I've been half a dozen times between 1969 and 2012. The first time was exciting for a young guy. After that, not so much. Continuous grabbing for your wallet as everyone in that city is looking for a way to separate a sucker from their money. You can have it.

I don’t need to respond to your other false accusations.
 
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
What happens in Vegas will be examined in God's judgment.

Isaiah 3
11 Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him.

Teacher eh? Please be specific and show where I said anything about the LAST time I was there, liar. Again, you demonstrate that you are wholly unqualified to have EVER been in a classroom. The fact that I visited a half dozen times between 1969 and 2012 says NOTHING about the last time I visited. SMH. You're a drunken moron.
 
most of them have already had their day in the sun....Foreigner was here with only 1 original member....
You live in Las Vegas so a report from you would be helpful. Are things getting better or worse? When a casino sells snickers for $13.00, seems gambling is not paying the bills.

Tourism probably is sensitive to fuel prices and of course hotel prices. Gamblers are a breed of their own of course and even when losing money, think it is a lot of fun. My former gambling treated Gambling like a business so I was able to make profits. One thing for me at any rate about gambling in casinos, standing around for a long time to make a profit, was not fun at all. I like to keep moving.

Not anymore. From the 80's through the early 2000's, I went there regularly to see professional fights, mostly championship matches, and while there, I would play a little roulette.

Since I went so often, I had part interest in a timeshare with Hilton hotels, and most of my meals and incidentals were covered by reward points that I had accumulated. I've got a few old friends still living there but most of them have either moved or passed away.

Dude, when I went to Vegas there was $1 breakfast buffet, the hotel had a tubular aquarium built into a corner of the elevator.
As you go up or down, there's fish swimming around. Like a foot-wide tube in the corner of the elevator.
No fried eggs at breakfast buffet, but unlimited bacon, southwestern scrambled eggs..
sausage. Was good!

Yes indeed. I had an auntie who worked for him running numbers in Cleveland many years ago, before he got his big break promoting the Ali- Foreman fight in 1974.

Definitely an interesting person.

Quite a personality indeed. He was the Dana White of those days.
I enjoyed watching Foreman. The forearm glove clench. Nobody else did that.
Ofc in Ali-Foreman, I was rooting for Ali.
Cassius Clay was a helluva boxer.

My dad and I went to Zaire and saw the Ali- Foreman fight, most people thought that Ali would literally be carried out on a stretcher, I placed a bet on Ali because I really believed that he had the right style to test big George. After the ferocious beating that he laid on Joe Frazier, a lot of people thought he was unbeatable.
