Watch out dere naw--For y'all Gamblers out dere
Sorors,
Be aware that y'all really need to bring a BUDGETTED amount of $$$ that you plan on losing, instantaneously... 'Cuz ALL places in Vegas take any kinna plastic, and y'all can come home with the shirts off your backs!!! Or worse...
I only say that 'cuz I goto Vegas alot myself... They got the dayum slot/video poker machines in the Airport!!! And those things ain't never, neva, neve, evar loose--ABSOLUTELY NO PAYOUTS!!! And one can get addicted to that "Wheel Of Fortune" game... Or the "Deuces are Wild" video poker game...
Places that have good food: GOTO the Boardwalk Hotel to their buffet. They are on the Strip... Very good food and inexpensive. If you wanna go off-Strip--goto "Texas Station" Hotel--very good buffet. Circus-cirus' buffet is huge but not cheap. And be ready to eat. Old Las Vegas is okay--Binion's is the place. Hush Puppies is a good Sea Food, but off-strip. And y'all better know sum body really really famous if y'all wanna be up in the Ghostbar in the Palms Hotel on a Friday or Saturday night...
DO NOT GAMBLE at the Venetian, Bellagio, MGM Grand and any other brand new hotel--YOU WILL LOSE YOUR MONEY AND THEY WILL SAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR IT!!!
Be careful in going to concerts, the seating is all one level--not on a risers or stadium and you can't see the stage. If you wanna pay the $50+ seats, then you might be wasting your money... Ever since Earl Turner left from the Rio, their ain't no good shows for "us"... They got some Earl Turner lookalikes, but they ain't that good...
The Beach Club is too wild and they ain't that interesting unless you want the college hangout...
OHHHHH!!!!! Gordon Biersch has an EXCELLENT Sunday Jazz Brunch!!!! And they charge a little of nuthin' to get in!!! Starts around 9ish-10ish... Gordon's is off Flamingo I think... But everyone who works in Vegas will point you in a direction...
Whatelse, personally, I like the Halls of Caesar (sp.) for shopping. They got this indoor swapmeet off of Decatur and Flamingo and it has almost the same kinna stuff as in the ritzy places--so be sure they don't rip you off... Vegas is known for that...
The Mirage has the nicest pool too...
That's all I can think of right now... Have fun!! Good Luck!!
Soror G-
