[QUOTE="rockchalk06, post: 3598934, member: 40794"] My wife's work BF and her husband talked me into it. I had a good amount of fun for hating airplanes, airports and people in general. We stayed at the New York New York. Room and bed sucked a little, but we didn't spend that much time in it. Casino and Coffee shop right off the elevators made it nice. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20210613_165458.jpg"]211299[/ATTACH] It was hot. Like 115 hot most of the day. Did the public transportation thing the first two days. Busses were nice, people even nicer. I got sick of the 30 plus stops each way, so I priced matched Uber and Lyft and just bit my lip and dealt with it. We hit Fremont Street to scratch that off the bucket list. Mental Health blows as bad in Vegas as it does in Oklahoma. Fregging weed is everywhere. Last thing on the bucket list was Gold and Silver Pawn. No one other than the doorman I noticed from the show was there, but it was cool. We got there early and only waited a few minutes to get in.
