You can be shown around allright...but it's gonna cost you plenty. Scavs is more in tune with the going rate for those services.

Let me tell you something, I haven't done something more fun then that night where I was just talking to hookers on the strip, it was absolutely awesome. I haven't laughed that hard in a while.

Probably a good thing we weren't there at the same time. I would have had them talked into paying us for our services

I think I have been to Vegas about 7 or 8 times and stayed a few different places. As far as sportsbooks goes:

Hilton: I loved it. Big and took good care of me.
Excaliber: Very underrated...I really liked it alot. Plenty of room with tons of TV's
Mandalay: Overrated IMO
New York, New York: Very small, but useful
Caesars: Fair...nothing spectacular
