For the people who went to Las Vegas, is it actually cheaper there to party than Vancouver? in Clubs, Bars and Strip Clubs
Few friends who went there recently told us it was hella cheap and how they partied like rock stars

If I remember correctly, we paid around $450 for a 40 of goose. This was @ XS too.

Table is at least 600 if not more. However, the experience is well worth it. Try to save up and get a table.

If you find the right ones, flight + hotel separately is usually cheaper especially booking those allegiant packages. Allegiant really rips you off on hotels, lol.

My work is sending me to a tradeshow in Vegas in 2 weeks.
I know very little about vegas, Is the Paris hotel any good? (Apparently that's where I'm staying)?
What are some good attractions closeby?

Paris is pretty good, and pretty central location. All the major hotels are walkable distance, should be fun.

Anyone going to Vegas should hit up www.jackcolton.com and get in touch with the hosts there. They can usually get you guest list/cover waived if your group is not a complete sausage fest or hook you up with table deals if you're looking for bottle service.

either way, to answer the question, yes its way more expensive to party in vegas than in vancouver

Just booked flight and hotel to Vegas on Allegiant Air. I haven' been there in 7 or 8 years ago. Any recommendation what to do down there? I'm not big on gambling and the nightlife. I'll be there for 5 days 4 nights and I'm staying at Treasure Island.

flying there tomorrow with my buddies!!!!
question though, when were goin clubbing, how do we set up a guest list/bottle service? someone told me just ask the girls at the front desk of our hotel to set it up for us? but i dont know if they're just fucking with me or what. we plan on being pretty buzzed by the time we get there, id like to think were heavy drinkers and can hold our liquor quite well, so sit our asses as some penny slots and get a nice buzz going, then head to the club and get bottle service between me and my 3 buddys going and that should do us for the majority of the time were there.
but whats the dress codes like? would i be able to get in with lets say...all white lacoste shoes? or should i stick with the dress shoes, nice jeans and a long sleeve button up with gel hair?

There are tons of guys in the clubs. If you don't look like you're rich then no chick is going to want to spend time on you. Very materialistic but it's the sad truth.
You can always just talk to the hotel concierge regarding getting the bottle service stuff setup. You get better privileges if you club at your hotel's resident club.
Have fun and make sure you wrap that sausage up
