    Dude, you just saved me $400+. Thank you. 
    Hard to tell if we can cancel?  It seems like cards are charged in April and can cancel beforehand?  I’m looking at NoMAD but not sure if that is different than Park MGM.

    We are now flying in Tuesday night. This was supposed to be a quick 3 night trip and now it’s 5 nights. Tuesday is very affordable if you can pull It off. Thursday you need to refinance your house!

    Also for those that can stomach a non refundable hotel Hotwire has great prices on their hot deals. You can figure out which hotel it is by looking at the review rating and number of reviews. We booked Hilton DoubleTree Tropicana for a good rate.

    Outside of gambling in a casino or eating at a nice restaurant, some things to do in Vegas (recommendations);
    Shelby Automotive for Sports Car fans
    Servahzah Tap Room and craft breweries (Able Baker is good) north of the Strip, Beer Zombies is good too
    Neon museum!

    Really is some great value but just a tiny word of caution (and I guess this could apply anywhere) but my understanding is that that the EDC crowd will be intense.  My buddy works for LN (old dude like me in early 40's - ha ha) and has to go to this every year: basically he said the EDC kids come home anywhere from 3-7am and party in their rooms all day … and never go to sleep.  I guess what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas!  To each his own of course but I think we are going to keep our reservation at Aria (wasn't terrible with the MGM Grand Rewards discount) as I hear its a bit tamer / quieter over there (and looks super nice.)  I do agree, really solid options / prices with the EDC link.  It's going to be a blast no matter what!!  GL everyone!

    Tried to convince my wife for Tuesday but already pushing it with leaving 3 kids with Grandma / Grandpa so Wednesday it is!

    Hoping that the Golden Knights make it to the second round and somehow have a playoff home game on the 18th,19th or 21st. I might even hit up that EDC festival if they sell single days on the 21st. I have never been to something as crazy as that and might be fun to check out. 

    Anything else anyone local would suggest aside from the touristy stuff that is widely known or easily searchable?
