Solo at nightclubs

[Whiggi]

Anyone been to some of the Vegas clubs solo?
I enjoy a bit of clubbing but my friend that I will be going to vegas with does not.. soooooooo
Unless someone else I know has booked a trip to vegas and I just dont know about it yet, I might have to looked at the option of hitting up a club on my own. which for me is something ive never done. All my nights out have consisted of a group of atleast 2 people
Maybe my best bet will be to just hang around the tables and just drink the nights away

Hit the link below and try to connect with some people who will be there the same time as you:

If that doesn't work, the pools are a great opportunity to meet people you can meet up with at the club, especially if you're social and willing to chip in for your share of the bill. This is assuming you will be there during pool season, of course.

If you're a chick, this should be no problem.. free drinks galore!

not a chick

I do it all the time when I go with my parents (a free room is a free room and the 'rents like the Venelazzo). You'll meet people just waiting in line, and depending on where your staying you'll get priority over the GA line if you go to their clubs.

Find a blackjack table with people who seem cool, sit down, play a while, make some friends.

So long as you're a chill person and know what you're doing at the table (hint: make the dealer your friend), you'll make friends in no time.

Yeah - Vegas is one place that's super easy to do solo. My last guy's trip I ended up solo a couple of the nights due to various reasons and I had a blast. Like has been said - be open and social, and you'll find some new friends quickly. I was at XS getting a drink and got pulled in by a group of guys doing shots - we chilled the rest of the night. In line at Drais I was solo and met up with a couple of chill guys and we went to teh VIP room for the night.

Pretty much it's at the point where I prefer heading out solo in Vegas. Last time I was there had a friend drive in from AZ and met me and right away knew it was a bad idea. He was being a freakshow.

Vegas it is beyond easy. I have had times where I have lied and said that the group I was with werent clubbers and a few times I have said flat out i was by myself. People actually think its awesome. You get involved in more stuff when u are alone and dont have anybody dragging you down. Now in a perfect world , I am with one solid wingman (or woman) but id MUCH rather go out alone then with a group. Its Vegas u arent alone long.

Case in point, I have a group of friends going there this upcoming weekend for a bachelor party. I turned down going cause I wanna go Final 4 weekend but from what I am hearing it is already a clusterf*ck with how many guys are going.

Ive gone solo a few times. Last time it was because I got too drunk and missed my fight so I stayed two more days and went to clubs and had a blast. Dean is right its hard to find diehard friends that can go all day and night and then do it again the next day. I actually partied with a friend in vegas and we got so crazy he won't even answer my calls anymore. Whatever, he's lame now. I guess that's why these invasions are so popular. Everyone is on the same page. No complainers or lightweights. Lol!

When are you going to be there? I'll be out there soon celebrating my divorce party!! Never been to Vegas solo either...and I'm worried about the same things you are.

Now my first few times I didnt go alone. Had a bachelor party, went with a couple friends the next time. It wasnt until a trip was planned and everyone started bailing on me that I went alone. No way was I gonna cancel a Vegas trip.

What I found was it truly didnt matter I was alone. In fact, it was much better than being with a huge group. When i was with the huge group, things got derailed.

After that first time going solo, I was hooked. So many things u dont have to worry about. If u would feel more comfortable just lie about why u are there. Say for a work conference/tradeshow etc, friends wont be in til next day as they are travelling in, Friends left that day u have one more day, friends dont like clubbing or arent on same page.

When u are solo, u are mobile and hostile.

I used to go to Vegas a lot for work so I was solo many times. That's how I got hooked on Vegas. It wasn't until I left that job and started going with friends that I had anything less than a stellar Vegas experience.

I prefer hitting the lounges/bars solo and finding a group before going into the bigger nightclubs. It's easier to find cool people at the more relaxed spots first. I also used to meet people at the pool during the day, so I support the dayclub ideas already mentioned. Just be careful at the pool because you can't really tell how the people you meet are going to dress at night. You don't wanna meet up with people later that might prevent you from getting into the club (from experience).

thanks for the advice
Guess I'll have to hit up some clubs solo when im over there

[co21ss]

I had never rolled solo to a club until this last trip. Couldn't connect with others who were out, and my brother posted up at the tables. I just wandered in, grabbed a drink, and eventually made some friends.
Mind you, I'm overly chatty and friendly when drunk so that probably helped, but I think it's pretty easy. Have fun!

I used to travel 44 weeks a year for business. You get used to doing everything solo. Go for it and don't worry about anything else. Just have a good time.
