Have a professional conference this week. I’m not a gambler, never once even tried. Someone told me to put $100 on red, $5 on 21, 22, 23, 25 and 29. One spin.

Ya I'd recommend a Cirque show as well. We saw the Beatles Love at the Mirage. Great show!
There's also tons of great restaurants everywhere you look. The Shopps at Ceasars is a good place to take the family as well."I got memories, I got shit"0 -
Take a walk through the Venetian.0

MGM has a hotdog place called Nathans. Go try one of those hot dogs please and report back.
See the Sirens at Treasure Island, fountains at Bellagio, walk down Fairmont st now that it's covered.
Maybe go to Pawn Stars shop just to see it.
Those are my recommendations.
You should really do a Hoover Dam tour too. That would be on top of my list.0 -

We did the Hoover Dam tour when I was out there like 20 years ago. Was interesting, but since it's a drive obviously depends on if they are renting a car (though I imagine there's [probably also bus tours to it)This weekend we rock Portland0 -
Beatles Love at Mirage for sure
Titanic exhibit at the Luxor is cool.
Avoid peak dining times....eat dinner at 430p then grab fast food later
Avoid the bus...I think it's called the Deuce. Opt for uber if you want to go to Fremont St...which you should definitely visit.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

Without wanting to hijack this thread I’d be really interested in any recommendations, coming from the uk(my stag do) for my very first visit to America and I cannot wait, restaurants, things to do day and night and if there’s anywhere that’s plays some good old rock then that would be a bonus. Also things to avoid.

Or...download a blackjack app and learn how to play. Hit a $10 table (Fremont street might even still have some $5/tables) and drink for free for awhile.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

I know he doesn't have a lot of time but Echo Bay was a cool spot when the water was there. it would be interesting to see how much the water has receded over the years.0 -

Drink red bull vodkas and play blackjack until 8am. The next day you feel like you're having a heart attack....it's a lot of fun!!0
