The Wolf Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 What the hell? Who goes to Vegas to work? They're paying $100 per draft. It helps with the expenses, gambling, etc. Trying to buy a house so every little bit helps. Plus, I'm Italian...you know how we paisans always work!

darin3 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I thought that meant the same thing too and the get-together was more for drinking than eating. I think the spot at Treasure Island where DMD and WW had the organized event a couple years ago was PERFECT. There are a couple decent eating locations right near that loungey area too, in case people wanted to go grab a bite. Or we could always do the spot at the Flamingo where we met last time. There's food options adjacent to that spot too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's food options adjacent to that spot too. yeah.... there were a few of us that wanted to go bigger for 1 dinner out there and we wanted to open that up for whomever wanted to join..... the huddle get together/dinner was more of an opportunity for all of us to sit down for drinkiing and grab some food. i think that any place that could seat us- that happens to have food available- is sufficient.... if you guys want to change that up a bit, i am game. just trying to get some concensus (and get 1 great meal while there) fwiw- i am also going to be jonesing for in-n-out, so happy to hit that up for a quick lunch or 2 am snack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puddy Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Question on best way to get from airport for when I go in a few weeks. Taxi line? (is it a long wait, is the cost savings worth it?) Nicer car (assuming no line, how much more than a taxi?) Limo (doubt I'd go this route) Should I find a couple of strangers and offer to split a fare to the hotel?

Limo (doubt I'd go this route) Should I find a couple of strangers and offer to split a fare to the hotel? we were just there a couple weeks ago. i'm assuming you're on the strip. just get a taxi. should be less than $15, and for sure less than $20. we arrived on a saturday evening, so there was no line.

rocknrobn26 Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 (edited) Question on best way to get from airport for when I go in a few weeks. Taxi line? (is it a long wait, is the cost savings worth it?) Compared to what? The bus is cheap for one person, but it can take an hour plus, w/ no cocktails! Nicer car (assuming no line, how much more than a taxi?) Never saw any option like that. Limo (doubt I'd go this route) Pretty pricey for <4 people, but still more than 2 cabs. It's been a while, and w/ gas prices the way they are, I'd say at least $60. Should I find a couple of strangers and offer to split a fare to the hotel? Seriously, I've seen people do this. I saw a guy going up and down the line for people going to Caesars I think. He found another guy that took his offer. Not sure how it turned out, but all I could think about was.....Staying at Caesars and you can't afford the extra $7??? we were just there a couple weeks ago. i'm assuming you're on the strip. just get a taxi. should be less than $15, and for sure less than $20. we arrived on a saturday evening, so there was no line. Agree! Just don't let them take the HiWay! Total rip off if you are not going downtown or the far North strip! The Hilton is not far North!!! $12 from the airport to mid strip, including the $2.50 fee. Not sure if they have incorporated a fuel surcharge. Montster???
