I'm off to Vegas in about a month with 7 or 8 of my boys. So if I wanted to go to Ghostbar, just how long can I expect the line to be? The place opens at 8:00; does that mean I should start getting in line at 7:00?

Basically I just want to go to Ghostbar to experience it. I consider myself a pretty good-looking guy, but I'm realistic enough to know that if you give the typical female Ghostbar patron the choice between me in a suit and tie and Colin Farrell in a pit-stained T-shirt, she'll go with Colin in a heartbeat. But it sounds like Ghostbar is THE place to go nowadays. Hell, Britney got engaged there (sort of)!

I think I'm going back to Las Vegas in August for my friends 30th birthday! :)

Vegas Baby!
 
I love Vegas! Lived in AZ for a year when my husband was stationed there and we made roadtrips to Vegas as often as possible. I want to go back for my birthday in August--though we are thinking about waiting a week til Labor Day weekend--just want to have a big party with friends and family!:D

I've been back from Vegas for a couple of weeks, but I'm just now getting around to posting. My trip was insane. In a nutshell:

Thursday we spent the pretty much the entire time at the Mirage. After about 12 hours (give or take) of gambling and drinking, we headed back to TI (our hotel) and hit the Mist bar for a while.

Friday: TI, Venetian, Bellagio, and the Palms. We got in line for Ghostbar about 2:00 AM, which meant the line wasn't too long. Honestly, once you get in there, it's like pretty much any club. I'll tell you though, the view is everything they say it is. I wish I had had my camera with me at the time. I didn't see any celebrities in there, which was kind of odd since it was a Friday night.

Saturday (it's kind of a blur): headed down the strip at 1:00 PM. We hit Luxor, Mandalay Bay, Excalibur, New York-New York, and MGM before catching a taxi back to TI about 5:30. Then we had dinner at Caesar's, played there for a while, hit Paris, then cabbed it over to the Hard Rock. One of my friends talked us into paying off the bouncer to let us into The Joint without waiting in line, and then managed to get enough people to ante up for a VIP table. It was nice, but probably not worth what we paid for it. But we figured it was our last night, so we might as well do it up. I think I got maybe 3 hours of sleep that night, and my flight home was at 10:00 AM on Sunday. I was so loopy on the flight home that I would close my eyes to try to sleep and I kept seeing blackjack hands flashing in front of my face.

So I decided that day that I was Vegas'ed out for a while. But it only took me a few days to recover, and sure enough, I'm heading back there in late April for my friend's brother's bachelor party. You know what they say: You can take a man out of Vegas, but you can't take Vegas out of the man.
