If anyone is interested in the Harrah Buffet pass here is the information. It's $34.99 + tax if you become a total rewards member which I assume is free and similar to BC Gold here. I'll be trying it this weekend when I go. http://www.harrahs.com/buffets/faq.html

Total Rewards is a free program that you can sign up for at all the Harrah's properties. If you do any sort of gambling then you should get that card because you get slightly better deals. If you play a lot (which I assume quasi will) then you'll definitely want it. It doesn't take a whole lot of gambling nowadays to get comp'd rooms. Getting comp'd food is easy too.

But it was 20 bucks a lap dance and bought two of them. There were some chicks there and its like damn you need to rub my dong which they do:O so my wallet wasn't that much lighter.
Also when your down there check out the gun range. You get to shoot 4 machine guns and 2 shots with the desert eagle. Damn that gun has kick
it ends up being 118$ from what i rememebr

Rhino's is fun no doubt. Everytime we go its a blast, BUT when we leave we always say for the amount we spend we should have gotten some whores instead. At least we would have gotten fucked instead of leaving with blue balls.

Im heading down to Vegas from July 27th-30th(Tuesday NIGHT - Friday Night) with my g/f, it's her first time and it's my bday. Can you guys recommend me the top 5 places, either restaurant, shows, malls, or just w/e. For now we know we're going to see the Blue Man Group, eat at the Village buffet at the RIO, go to the outlet, and head to the old strip.
I'm more concerned about late night eating, like around midnight - 3am ish, and we want to go clubbing for at least 1 night but most clubs open Friday-Sunday and we leave Friday night. Any good clubs open from Tuesday - Thursday? Last time I went we went to Ghostbar, I know thats open. My buddy is telling me to go to Pure, how is that?

Shows well you probably already know but I think "O" at Bellagio is a good bet with the gf. Or perhaps even a magic show like Lance Burton at Monte Carlo. Not that expensive and good enough show to go with the gf.
Your gf probably doesn't love guns or anything but it's still neat to try. If interested hit up the gunstore and shoot some ak's, or whatever fancies you.
Late night eats is a huge issue everytime me and my gf go to vegas. Almost every place closes by like 10. Every hotel will have a 24 hour place but the key here is a lot of them are garbage. There's always Dennys on the strip slightly across the St from Caesars.
Ghostbar will be open and I think Voodoo Lounge is too. Voodoo Lounge is like Ghost bar, a Bar/Lounge that's on the roof of a hotel. In fact it's like across from Ghost Bar located at Rio.
Imo Pure is pretty shitty and highly overatted but that's just me. The 2 times I went the music sucked and I just didn't like the Venue itself. I'm more a fan of like Tao nightclub at Venetian but I'm not sure if it's open during your stay.

I'm going with my girl next month and she's always wanted to shoot a gun.
anyone know where to get some good deals on some shows like the O?

Buffet at the Aria is win! and Ka Cirque du Soleil in MGM is good.. I watched it when I was there, it was pretty sweet. There's also Zumanity.. it's more of a sexy show by CDS.. I think I'm gonna watch that next time when I'm there.

A good enough variety to choose from from hand guns to shot guns to SMG's to Ak 47's to M249 Saw or even a sniper rifle if you want. You just go in sign your name on the form and start picking guns. No hassles at all, from the minute you walk in you will be shooting in a matter of minutes.

Leaving tomorrow and woke up today with pains in my lower right side. It only hurts when I move or breath deep, FML. I'm still going fuck it, packing the pain meds and went and got health insurance today just in case it's my appendix or something. I'm sure it's nothing some drinks and the Vegas lights can't fix.

Just got back yesterday after going with the girl. Sucks to be back!
Stayed at Caesars Palace and the weather was great! (Caesars has great pools and they don't check for a room key, so if your around the area go in and check it out!)
Saw the new Viva Elvis Cirque show at Aria and The Lion King at Mandalay Bay, both excellent shows!!
Checked out a restaurant by the name of Serendipity 3 next to Caesars, great place! They have a great patio right on the strip and yummy food!
