  • How to party and drink in Vegas without going bankrupt? TR

    It’s been almost a month so it’s time for a TR. I wasn’t sure if I should write one cause compared to all the other TR’s mine is probably totally lame. Anyways…

    Arrived in Las Vegas after a 15 hours flight and we were pretty exhausted by the time we reached our hotel. After checking in our main concerns were the essential B’s: Beer, Booze, Burger, Bed!

    We did wander around the casino and had a few drinks. But after that we called it a night.

    We were up by 7am (thank you Jetlag!). All of our days started out the same. It was either exploring Vegas, shopping or hanging out by the pool (always accompanied by mandatory drinks and food). My friends went shopping almost 24/7 and hung out by the pool the rest of the day. So my girl and I came up with a new plan. We tried to drink and gamble at as many casinos as possible. We always gambled until we got free drinks. After that we left for the next casino. Worth mentioning is the Hard Rock Casino. I was just playing slots when I saw this waitress. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I grabbed my girl and followed her. My girlfriend kept complaining what this is all about until the waitress turned around. That waitress must have had the biggest fake boobs I have ever seen. She was probably like 5 feet and maybe 120 pounds and had boobs bigger than her head! My girlfriend couldn’t stop staring (I can’t believe I didn’t take a picture!).

    Nightlife was a little bit differently than expected. Turns out that my friend and his wife love to gamble and play slots. And they won all the time (that depressed me so I started drinking more to make it easier to pity myself for losing all the time).

    We did make it to some clubs though. After pre-gaming and drinking at the casino we went to Lax the one night. We met this guy Lenny (very cool guy) who put us on the guestlist. We didn’t have to wait and didn’t have to pay anything (good, more money for beer). Our plan was to pre-game with vodka and rum so we would still be in the mood for beer in the club (yip, we’re cheap). Since my friends were good with the slot machines and prices were a bit below Munich standard we had a blast. Then we told our girls to walk around and let other guys pay for their drinks. It actually worked but the girls were pissed and said that we’re treating them like hookers. My friend and I thought that was hilarious (they didn’t). After dancing, drinking etc. we went home around 5am (I think).

    We were all up again by 10am (f*** y** Jetlag!). Started drinking by the pool and decided somewhere along the line to go to Pure that night. I contacted Lenny and he put us on the guestlist (does anyone actually pay to get into these clubs, just wondering). Pure was very cool, especially outside. What’s up with the dress code though? I’m pretty sure I saw Al Borland in there as well as guys in shorts. Cab driver told us later on that the weekend was dead and he hadn’t seen it this slow in a long time.

    For me there were 2 more things left to do while in Vegas, go to a buffet and see a show. We went to the Rio buffet (not the seafood one) cause we wanted to check out the view at Voodoo Lounge afterwards. Food was ok, but can’t really tell cause I mostly ate prime rib (can’t get that in Germany). The view at Voodoo is amazing! But the crowd was weird, lots of old people , so left early went to our hotel and drank the rest of the night. Since I’m a huge Disney fan we went to see the Lion King the next day, completing all of the must-do’s on my list. Or so I thought. On our flight back home my girlfriend told me that we forgot to go to a strip club. OH NO (what kind of douche am I that my girlfriend has to remind me?).

    By the way, nobody went bankrupt

    We had a great time and there are already plans to go back in April!

    Thx for all the advice you all gave me!

          because it will be more crowded or more expensive?

                @kaneda33 they were giving out free passes at Rio's for Voodoo. LAX was a lot of fun! dancefloor was packed but no lines at the bar

                        I always play a little poker at night. The waitresses come around every 15 minutes it seems.

                          waitresses at caesers and luxor were very quick. seemed like they came by every 5min. at the excalibur on the other hand it took them over 30 min. then again it looked like they were not used to getting tipps (took off before you could tipp them) while the quick waitresses at caesers & luxor made sure that you tipp them (which of course is tottaly fine)
