Title: Vegas this weekend? Any good ideas?
Post by: rabbidrabbit on March 30, 2009, 02:41:42 PM

Heading there for a quick get away with the wife from the 4th-8th.  We have been a few times in the past and know most of the usual suspects.  Any good shows or trips?

I have lots of good ideas.  Oh, wait.  Your wife will be with you?

Sorry, I don't have any good ideas.

I was going to recommend that you NOT get married while there.  Too late for that I see.  Like Bat said, might as well bust out the ether then.

"Is this not a reasonable place to park?"

I second "The Gun Store" on Tropicana Ave.  I was there a few weeks ago and got the WWII package: a Thompson, an MP40, and a 1911.  Was fun, although when I go back it won't be on a Friday so I can spend more time really learning the weapons.

Colt M16 Carbine .223
M249 Minimi .223

Also, the Titanic exhibit at the Luxor is pretty cool if you're into that kind of thing.  They also have a "Bodies" exhibit where you get to see a preserved organs and circulatory systems and stuff.
