Going for the first time ever this weekend. Gonna be there 5 days with the wife. Here is a list of stuff I want to do...any help with suggestions (with links/and/or/pics would be appreciated)

-Take my wife to a strip club, buy her her first lap dance ever (suggestions welcome here):yesnod:

-Helochopper ride into the grand canyon

-Find the cheapest place to gamble....dont have alot of cash to gamble with, so going to keep it cheap. Also, looking for other games to play, only know how to play blackjack.

-I want to go to a show (music/comedy/something weird but awesome).

-Hit up some clubs

-Renew the wedding vowels in a chapel.

-MISC - fill in the blank here....where is the "must goto place" while in Vegas?

For a strip club go to Sapphire's or Spearmint Rhino. I'm assuming the wife doesn't do this often, so make it a good one.

If you want to gamble cheap go in the early afternoon and find the $5 tables. This works pretty much anywhere. If you stick around, they'll grandfather you in as the crowds arrive. You can play the slots too, but can't imagine that getting you excited.

Vanity or Tao are good for clubs, but if you have no money, do not go to a Vegas dance club. $20 a piece to get in on the slowest night and budget $10-$15 a drink.

Catch a Bellagio fountain show.

Get tickets to one of the Cirque du Soleil shows (I have seen Mystere & The Beatles Love and both are great).

If you are in good enough shape, do the Vegas Strip Death March (walk from one end of the strip to the other checking out the casinos).

Go take your picture in front of the Las Vegas Welcome sign.

Go check out the Fremont Street Experience downtown (downtown also has cheaper table game minimums.

Strip club Spearmint Rhino

Thats all I can recommend :) Poker and Strippers!!!

As for a dance club I would ask around when you get there. Anyone from taxi cab drivers to front desk employees will know which club has the most going on. Since your staying there for 5 days, I would take the first day to kinda walk everywhere and you'll stumble into a lot of fun. Some clubs are located at the top of the hotels so they have a great view of Las Vegas.

One other thing...I'd highly recommend going to a couple shows rather then spending a good portion of your money on clubs. Clubs in Vegas can be hit or miss.

The Treasure Island show out front is pretty good. Go after dark, and it's free. (Kind of like Pirates of the Carribean, without the ride.)

Fremont Experience! Hint, Lie down on your back!

If you have a car, you might go up to Boulder, at the Hoover Dam. Cheapset gambling around. When I was there, they had dime slots, I won over $70 in dimes. I almost needed a hand truck to cash it in.

Horseshoe Casino used to have 99 cents shrimp coctails and super cheap chili dogs. (Great for late night munchies!)

It's the Golden Gate Hotel & Casino downtown that has the world famous shrimp cocktail, but it's now $1.99. There is a BOGO coupon that you can get from the Fremont Street Experience website.

I agree about not spending your money on the clubs in Vegas, unless you are really into that. Long lines, full of douchebags, and very expensive (you have to get bottle service to get a place to sit down). However, I would recommend going up to the Voodoo Lounge at the Rio for a drink and the view. There is no cover before 8, but also plenty of free admission coupons around if you go later. I liked it when we went, but we left before it got really cranked up because we had other placed to go and the wind started picking up.

As for adult shows, I liked Jubilee at Ballys because it is an old school Vegas style show where the showgirls wear the big headdresses, etc. (the 10:30 show is topless), and Crazy Horse at MGM.

90% of our gambling is on the slot machines (penny slots) for the mindless entertainment, people watching, and free drinks (always tip the waitress).

Sign up for the casino players cards at the different casinos. You usually get a gift and some free slot play when you do. Just remember that certain hotels use the same card (MGM= Mirage, Bellagio, Aria, Monte Carlo, NYNY, MGM Grand, Excaliber, Luxor, & Mandalay Bay. HET= Harrahs, Imperial Palace, Caesars, Flamingo, Bill's, Ballys, Paris, & Rio).

    • I’m keeping an eye on what the Hawks do with Boye Mafe. There’s a few young talented players that needs to be retained and one of their defensive starters might not fit within the budget. My guess is probably Riq Woolen is voted off the island but Mafe could be potentially too. His stats aren’t eye popping, but in McDonald’s defense, his role is to leverage for the DL to clean up. Mafe’s QB pressure rate is top notch and in a different scheme, he could clean up.    Just something to watch this weekend when SEA is in town.
    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
