    I don't have many things to say about Vegas. One good thing I do have to say is that Vegas was the location of a bonding moment between my mother and I that I am particularly fond of. Moment goes like this:

    The whole family had a "The Hangover" type of weekend. We all felt the flowing of the booze. In the back seat of a limo while it was taking us back to our hotel my mom says she's gonna puke and I tell her "It's probably a good idea to not puke in this limo". I never thought I'd be holding a coin bucket to my mother's mouth to catch her vomit.

    I've never knew my mom could party like that. :shock: :lol:

    I've got one week left until my buddy's bachelor party in Vegas. Any last-minute tips? Two of us have each been there once, while another went as a child.

    Here's some things we're hoping to do:
    -get wasted
    -get limo and get wasted therein
    -eat well
    -drink well
    -shoot automatic weapons (sober)
    -pool party? (advice on this aspect, please. We've only researched one place thus far)
    -drink excessively
    -gamble (responsibly :lol:)

    as well as the standard bachelor party fare of strip clubs.

    I think you have all the essentials covered. Except for hookers and blow, like 81 mentioned. I think the itinerary for my bachelor party in Sept will look similar...except shooting automatic weapons. I don't think that would be a good idea to do at any point of the trip since I'll eaither be drunk, halfway drunk or miserably hungover.

    I think we're planning on miserably hungover for that adventure.

    The buffet at the Bellagio. I can not stress enough how good the food is.

    That's one thing I'm insistent upon, thankfully the friend who's been before is backing me up on that buffet.

    Sounds about right! I was there two weekend's ago for a buddy's bachelor party. Had a great time. Felt like absolute death on Sunday. :sick:

    We did the pool thing on Saturday afternoon. I despise public pools and won't get in one, but I hung out and checked out the...sites! :D

    We all met as lifeguards when we were younger, so naturally we despise public pools, but we hear the sights are something to be seen. What pool did you check out?

    You're going to have a great time!! Wet Republic at MGM is pretty awesome for a pool party and DO NOT MISS Fat Tuesday's - get the 190 octane with the extra shot, you will thank me later :mrgreen:

    O'Shea's has beer pong in the back if you're into that, but get there a little early so you don't have to wait to get a table. They also have $1 Craps, which works well for responsible gambling :)

    My mouth seriously begins to water just when I mention it there. :lol: Earlier in the thread I posted about a sweet pizzeria I stumbled on as well if you're looking for something quick. It's in the concourse below the MGM that connects the casino to the monorail. What type of gambling are you looking at doing?

    O'Shea's is closing down....or remodeling.
    When we were there two weekends ago, they were having a big "closing party". Handing out free shots all over the place! :D

    The beer pong thing is DISGUSTING. It's bad enough playing it in a clean place with your friends, but to play it in Vegas? Sick! Those balls hit the floor and go rolling all over the place! Dipping it in a glass of water cannot help! :lol:

    This girl knows what she is talking about! :lol:

    And always get the extra shot! Best dollar you'll spend in Vegas that doesn't get tucked into a g-string! :lol:
