So, I'm going to Las Vegas this January, for a few days. Obviously, I will be going to some of the casinos. But what else should I do while I'm there? Also, this will be my first time in the United States, so if there is anything uniquely "American" I can do in Las Vegas, even if not unique to Las Vegas itself, feel free to suggest it. Thanks guise.

Amerifag living in LA here. Vegas is incredibly overrated. Its hot, crime problems, ugly women (outside of the expensive shows), everything smells like shit, its dirty. I've been there 6 times (god knows why) and I have no desire to return. If you ask me go somewhere else.

>>71271 Well that sucks. I kind of don't have a choice. I've already booked the flight and hotel, since I'm going there for a conference.

Let me get this straight. You're coming to my nation for the first time for a limited time and you pick.... Vegas. The biggest electronic money-siphoning fart of a town in Christiandom, parked in the middle of nowhere. Don't gamble. Enjoy the good cheap food the casinos put out to lure you in. Drive out of town and enjoy the bleak desert landscape, if you're into that kinda thing. That's about it.

and if you HAVE to go, just avoid casinos and gambling. drive or walk down the strip or something, thats the most memorable experience. everything else is shit and deserves to be nuked

Las Vegas' heyday died with the rat pack. It's now a dank, depressing shithole and has been for decades.

If you want to buy some marijuana, go up to the mexicans giving out the prostitute cards on the corners, and ask for mota. Tell them you are not a cop, and tell them you want 3.5rams for $40.

Go see the Cirque Du Soleil show "O" at the Bellagio. It's well worth the money. Purchase tickets ahead of time. It'll be one of the more amazing things you've ever seen in your life. Also make a point to check out the Wynn hotel. It's a pretty cool place regardless of whether or not you gamble there. Protip: take some women with you and play penny or nickel slots. Your money lasts longer, it's just as fun as anything else, and you still get free drinks.

If you're a starstruck douchebag with an expensive sporty car and expensive clothes you can go to really exclusive clubs like PURE with a bunch of skanks with more money than sense. If you're lucky you might even catch Lindsay Lohan doing lines of coke somewhere.
Yelp.com is your friend. Go there right now and look up stuff to do, things to eat, and stuff in Vegas there.
