It is nothing for me to walk 6 – 10 miles a day on the strip. On getting around, I take the bus everywhere, $20 for a 3-day unlimited pass. Take the SDX over the Duece (double decker bus) as it makes less stops. This is how I also get downtown and back for the day. Otherwise it’s $2 for one time ride. You can get 2 hour pass or 24 hour pass also. I think $5 and $8. I will also take the free monorails.
Going to pool parties or clubs make sure to buy your tickets head of time. Waiting in the non-ticket line will ruin your day club and or night club experience. Staying with a big group (5 or more) look into getting a suite. The price for two separate regular rooms will equal the price of one big suite. Gambler budget daily, put winnings into the next day or just keep them.
agreed
With the new parking fees I may have to take the bus. It always looks so packed. The trains in NY are packed enough I cannot c myself waiting for the bus on VACA esp at the snails pace of vegas traffic
The million dollars is @ Binions. I took a stray boots scavenger hunt and we have to find it and take a pic of it. That was my chance to see downtown. I never knew that there were 2 more free monorails besides the one at TI/Mirage. Amazing news. Thanks so much
That strong bow def has you “lit” but in a good way. It was funny to hear you laugh at your own jokes. Great podcast once again. Hard to believe this is the 6th one.
Yeah, I was lit, haha. Thanks for the tips, everyone!
