For Christmas my parents bought me a plane ticket and got me a room in Vegas!  I know you're filled with jealousy, but it's going to be me and my parents and that's it.  Since I didn't have any warning, I didn't have a chance to save up a bunch of money to spend / gamble with and none of my friends can go since it will be during Christmas (I leave Saturday).  Now I'm calling upon the wisdom of BF2s.com to help me find things to do while I'm there.  Any ideas are welcome, because I'm going to be there for a week.  I'll also do my best to post pics here of me doing the suggested things.

Requirements:Must be cheapIf my parents catch me they won't disown meSuggestions I've got so far that I'm planning checking out:

Well when I went. I mainly played holdem for most of the trip, this was two years ago. We saw  a group called the blue men (I can't remember where it was but everyone down there knows where it is trust me. Ummm tickets go anywhere from 50-100 bucks. I know its expensive but after you see the show you wouldn't want to leave. check out the Balagio (spelling prob wrong} It has a neet glass structuring inside the main lobby. Hit up the monorail also I road that thing for like a couple of hours till I get bored. The Mirage also has some cool shit as well. Hell just outside of that hotel is a major attraction lols. (Do not play slots, black jack or any other game where the dealer is playing against you. That's all I have for now I guess. Where are you staying ?

Both Marconius and myself were in Vegas over Thanksgiving!

One of my favorite things to do in Vegas is to hit up the Gameworks arcade, since I don't like gambling. According to their website if you go on Thursday night you can get unlimited play for $15 from 9pm till they close (i think they close around midnight...)

There is also plenty to see as far as beautiful decor and fancy shops in Cesar's, Bellagio, Venetian, and most other hotel/casino's along the strip, and walking around is free!

If you do happen to gamble and win some spare change to spend, I highly recommend seeing the Blue Man Group, it is simply a fantastic show. There are always plenty of comedians doing nightly shows, and other various acts, if the BMG isn't something you would be interested in.

I'll be sure to point Marconius to this thread as well as I know he can suggest even more stuff to do in Vegas than I can.

I go there every so often, but it's kinda easy for me because I live in LA and it's only a 4 hour drive.

I'm with voodoo... gameworks!

Already planning on taking it.  I don't know if I'll have time to play BF2, but I'll have it w/ me just in case.

Well, I was going to say BMG might be too expensive, but like 5 people have suggested it, so I guess I'll go see them.  I've been in the Balagio and Mirage, but I'll go again!  The monorail is how I got around last time I was there, it's hella better than walking.

Strange enough...  Just him and his mom?  Well, I wouldn't want his mom to be all alone, but if he can get away maybe we should hang out!

I just checked their website and it looks like its closed.. http://www.thedrivevegas.com/

I think they only had a 6 month lease on the property, and I guess its over..

To bad, that was fun.

That blows.  I was really looking forward to that.  I'm sure I can find something else...
