March Madness in Vegas - Best Place ?

cuse_man · #1 02-26-2010, 08:16 PM

Any opinions on the best place to go for the games ? Everything gets so packed, and people camp out for seats I hear so I am kind of looking for the best places to check out with a nice book/setup for the tourney and a place you have a good chance getting a couple seats. If that is only possible at some real dumps then I will just stand or whatever at a better spot, but I know there are guys on here that know vegas so let me know what you think.

If you are a big enough bettor, they will reserve you a seat cuse...

Not even close to a big enough better for that im sure.. and especially not during the tourney as I go real light for the most part.

well, Cesar's palace has a pretty big book I would try there. Bellgaio, Wynn, or MGM. All of them will be packed thats for sure, but if you get there early enough you might get a spot. Have fun

Paris has a great set up. 3 HUGE screens in their theatre. They set up a bar and book right outside the door.

Booking tonight/2mrw just trying to figure out this last peice to narrow down my selections.

- I also had Golden Nugget marked down for a possible spot... I read online somewhere someone saying some good things about that place for MM, and since its off the strip maybe less packed ?

Thanks... yea ceasers/MGM/mandalaybay were all places I was thinking off, but I am starting to get the idea those might be some of the least likely places to get a seat... no way in hell I am getting up at 5-6am to get a nice spot

If you dont care where you sleep. go with Flamingo. Cheap and right in the middle of the strip.
Not pretty but who cares if your only there to sleep.

why dont you do this then? Book a nice place on the strip and then just take a cab in the morning to the nugget or somewhere off the strip that is less crowded??
