From the pool to nightclub - what's good to do inbetween that time???

[YellowFever]

Hi All,

I know everyone is talking nightclubs and pool parties in this forum, which my group definitely plans on doing every day/night from May 29 - June 3 (Re: my thread from yesterday); however, from the time we leave the pool party (say 4pm) till we get to the nightclubs (say 11pm), what are some good places for pre-drinks with a good/busy crowd on the strip before heading to the clubs (we're 4 guys in our late 20's)?

We're staying at Planet Hollywood if that makes a difference?

We've all been to Vegas a few times and normally go once a year, but we find we're walking around randomly along the strip after dinner before we head to the clubs (which can sorta get boring since we've all seen the strip and don't care to gamble or see shows).

Thanks in advance for your responses!

oh you youngin's.....have dinner then REST! knock out for a few and recharge....lol

I find that the hours between 5 and 9 are pretty dead anyways when I am out during that time and figure most are having dinner/napping anyways....

Planet Hollywood is always crackin' so maybe chill at the Heartbar to knock back a few

I took a quick nap once after a pool party and woke up at 2:30am.. but naps can definitely help you out a nice 3-4 hour nap (set multiple alarms) wake up at 7-8pm get ready dinner..drinks..hit the tables..club at 11.

Planet Hollywood has a few good spots to eat and drink before and its centrally located, but you can also go to hotels where the club you are going to and pre-game closer to there.

3 advil, bottle of pedialyte, some crackers, 2 hour disco nap and I'm good to go!

I don't see food in the original post so what my group has done is the Todd English Pub in Aria before hitting the club. Direct from the website: HAPPY HOUR TWICE A DAY! 3:00-6:00PM & 10:00PM-Midnight ½ Price Pints, ½ Price Wines by the glass, $1 Wings, $2 Oysters*, $3 Sliders (*Oysters are $2 All Day, Everyday).

Can happy hour it after the pool and get some food, rest up in the room and do it again before hitting the club. Just a thought.

I usually head straight to the room afterwards. Hang out in the room and relax. Than straight to the tables and dinner before heading to the club.

I thought pool parties normally went on till 7pm ish?

people here suggesting its more like 4-5pm when people leave.

can someone clear this up for me

p.s I am a rookie lol

Gatorade, a meal, and a couple hour nap is probably your best bet. Drinking straight through from noon until 3-5am may not end well, but there's really only one way to find out...

i was surprised to hear people leaving at 4pm as well. most pools now don't put the headliner on until 3pm, and they play until 5pm or later. pools tend to die down around 6:30-7, but will go even later if people are still spending. i must be getting old, because after a day at the pool, i definitely need a nap before going out at night.

You can take a nap but no longer than 30 mins IMO..

What does Pedialyte do? Someone mentioned that before.

[Joeysarsenal]

Its packed with Electrolytes to re hydrate you.

if you're feeling like crap and don't feel up to making it to the nightclub after a long day at the pool party, hit the alcohol asap and you'll be back in the game. I would suggest eating and hydrating first though. works for me!
