I was there for work in my early 20's. I worked on the industrial solar farms that supply utility power.
Even with a $75 per meal per diem, hotels paid for, rental pickup truck, etc, I still had no desire to gamble. I mean I was mostly working 80 hour weeks and going out to dinner but the slots were everywhere, even gas stations and dive bars.
Used to be you could play penny slots and get free drinks. I doubt that's a thing anymore.
I did eat like a king tho. Steak and lobster like every night.
I've been to Vegas 3 times in my life and I've only ever played 1 slot machine for $1 1 time. I put the dollar in, hit the button, buncha shit flashed lines all over a bunch of other shit and that was it.
Never again.
A lot of bars with video poker machines will give you a drink if you slap a 20$ in and play a little. The odds range from ok to actually very good too with the correct play.
The free drinks otherwise are super hit or miss. Last time I went I spent a long time bsing at low limit craps tables and saw no free drinks until some of the girls from our group came around and then suddenly they were around (I would’ve tipped them the whole time too!).
I’ll never touch slots. Pretty sure those have just become even worse of a drain than they used to be, and it’s insulting they won’t even get you free drinks while you slap away your money in the dumbest way possible.
The drop in international tourism can't be helping things either
why I need to go to Vegas to gamble? my whole shit is a gamble for free.
Meow Wolf is the only cool thing left in Las Vegas
I thought it was just ok
I loved it, but that kind of thing is very much my jam and I was also on drugs.
They laid off my friend so I am planning to never go there
They should implement some sort of gambling anime horse game. Should fix things.
There were some good Vegas movies like Casino but as far as I'm concerned it can turn back into the desert.
It's basically a monopoly now. Adelsons (Zionazis) ran it into the ground. That totally not Saudi-CIA-Mossad-ISIS arms deal gone bad shooting that Trump 1.0 covered up was the last time I was there.
I went there annually for about 10 years. Used to be I could take $20 and play quarter slots for an hour with a diverse arrary of games and odds. Now it's "penny" generic same shit where you need to put in at least $1.50 and maybe get $0.07 on a win - not even your bet back.
Hotel rates and fees are outrageous. No more cheap food. Even the buffets are ridiculously priced. Quality of the rooms nosedived too.
Shows can be cool. Circ de Solei is always a good time. Every now and then there were rando shows like Bruce Cambell doing a nerd trivia game show night. That guy is a serious lore keeper. Or Wayne Brady doing standup which is always fun. Hard to catch and then debate is it worth a plane gamble on Boeing and dealing with TSA shenanegans and cramper ass crowded long flights. I've avoided planes since like 2018.
Perfer regional road trips now. More economical. Hotels.com can score some decent deals. A co-worker of mine had a good time at Dollywood recently and I'm thinking that should be something to do soon before she passes and the quality control goes numb.
How are native american casinos holding up?
I'm in Vegas right now, for the first time in my (Gen X) life. It is expensive as fuck.
Is it really as dead as news has been reporting? I guess it would be hard for you to say, given it’s your first time there. lol
Yeah I couldn't tell ya. I'm here for work related conventions, and I'm not into gambling or strippers.
Too busy buying loot boxes
Good, death to Vegas. Demon city
