What should I see in Vegas!?

[thinkingdog]

Hi all,

My wife and I will be in Las Vegas for the first time in mid-June and wanted to know from anyone what is the definitive Las Vegas experience?

What should I definitely see? A Do-Not-Miss show or place to visit? Best Buffet? Best Casino?

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!!!

leave the wife in the room and check out this little place called the spearmint rhino

that was what i was about to say...

in #1 i read:

'where can i unload the wife and kids... and ain't too far away from the spearmint rhino'

LOL--well if you do NOT want to unload the wife, take her to see the Cirque de Soleil show "O". Or take her to see Danny Gans (the guy is a Vegas institution AND HE IS GOOD !).

For food, there is a Wolfgang Puck place in the Venetian (forgot the name) and a restaurant called Picasso (think it is in the Bellagio). Neither of these is cheap, but if you want to treat her (and yourself) nice, then this is the way to go.

I was going to say a hookers ass but with the wife prob shouldn't do that.

According to HoosierCatDaddy, the best show in town is at the Excaliber.

Trust me, I am no Cirque de Soleil fan, but "O" was really amazing. And I also thought "how good can a song impressionist be ?", but Danny Gans was amazing.

And you guys know what happens later on when you take the wife out to a nice dinner and show like that....in Vegas no less........

USA changed policies for international flights to the US... now the prize for direct flight to Las Vegas dropped to less than 400€

If you have to bring your wife then go the "Green Door"

so the wife is like a hooker i see

I prefer to sit by the pool at Caesar's most of the day drinking and then hit the BJ tables

The wife will like the forum shops at Caesar's and I recommend the shark exhibit at Mandalay Bay to kill and hour or so, it's pretty sweet.

And most importantly don't leave your liver at home

Give the wife a grand to shop and take a grand to the Crazy Horse 2. Enjoy!
