Best Bars/ Lounges/ Restaurants to Pre-Drink on the Strip.. without the damage

[Strong]

Lets say you forgot to make a liquor run and do not have any at all in your hotel room to power up before tearing up the clubs. Where do you guys recommend for pre-drinking but without the damage to your wallet?? Thanks in advance!

JC suggests sitting at the slots stalking the waitress and just getting drinks from her for a while....while slowly dropping qyarters into the slots....OR during the week look for the spyonvegas happy hours OR sit down at a bar with joker poker machines throw a $20 in play the min and youll drink the whole time with that $20

I always gamble for free drinks. There are some places I go for pre-game, depending on where Im going that night. But the prices are still the same.

Hmm.. so just sit and gamble at the floor casinos? What are some of those place you are talking about dnix? I dont mind going to a place before the clubs as long as it is cool/fun

Na.. the only thunder from down under action going on is when i may be puking all over the damn toilet somewhere.. I'll pass on banana hammock dancing

[dnix]

In that case, I guess I have no suggestions

j/k man... lets hear em.. trying to look for places to entertain my people that weekend..haha

I like carnival court in front of harrahs. Its a good place to get rowdy. V-bar at the Venetian. Carmel at Bellagio.

Id get to the club super early, and pre-game at a bar near the club. If your not going to a club that night.....Carnival Court.

for pre-gaming, a few of us went to RockHouse in front of the Imperial Palace and drinks are pretty reasonable ($5/6 for a mixed vodka drink). Otherwise we look for the happy hour specials. We really enjoy Ra's happy hour. $3 mixed drinks..but then now thinking of that, I think that starts at 10.

I also second V bar. Vodka 7 was $6 bucks and a great place to be. Bar staff was really friendly.

Yea cant go wrong with RA.. We have one here in Houston and actually I'm there quite a bit. Its one of the few happening spots here. Thanks guys for the help. I will try to remember these spots for sure
