I just spent a week at the brand new Fontainebleau further up next to the Encore/Wynn.

I dont know about paying the crazy prices to stay there, but its the hottest employee talent I've seen in Vegas. Probably 80% of the staff is female, all under 35.

We went to this trendy steakhouse that's all the rage with celebrities called Papi Steak. If you're in the area I recommend going for at least some drinks at the bar. It's the most wildass restaurant i've been to.

It's a very high-end steakhouse with a DJ in the middle and the the waitresses are all OT 8 and above. Its the best people watching I've had in a long time. They have a $1000 steak that comes out with a parade party and in a briefcase that they got the inspiration from Pulp Fiction.

I’m staying at a cheap hotel close to the stadium and close to the strip and raging in various locations depending on where the weekend takes me. I’ll be the drunk guy in purple and gold, feel free to say hi.

Hoping to make it home to the wife and kids Tuesday.

We are doing the circa Saturday as well. Bought our tickets already. Probably won’t stay at the pool all day though. When it gets to packed I will likely go inside to the sports book. It’s 3 stories.
I think Hanny and Ott are having there show there Friday as well

I was in Vegas last month and several people mentioned that hotel is already hemorrhaging money and may have to close soon or be sold again.

Circa did this as well. They do this as well as over hire then lay off down the road

The whole thing is shady. They were complaining about money yet spent millions on those dragons thry have in there. My brother was ane electrical foreman for a few projects in there. They would complete the project then be told to take it apart and redo a project. Happened several times for no reason given.

I'd tell you to pass on both

Group of 5 of us staying at Wynne. We were researching a good place to watch the games on Saturday. Circa stadium rooftop pool was our choice but opted out. Prices were way too high and it’ll be HOT on that roof. We ended up getting a pod at the Westgate Spoortsbook. Not a bad deal…it’s for 6 people. 1300 bucks but all goes towards food and drink bill. So, around $225/person to eat and drink all day while watching all the games.

We are staying at the Sahara, 7-8 of us, great price on the north end of V. The Azilo pool is a smaller Circa pool and the hotel is connected to the monorail which can get you most anywhere on the east side of the strip. Ole Red is a cool country bar that recently opened.

Nice place. I stayed in one of the "red rooms" last time I was there. If you know, you know.

I'm gonna do HGV Flamingo this time for the access to the Flamingo's adult only pool. Don't want any bratty kids running all over the place and easy access to the monorail to go all over the strip.

Nice! Still planning out where I should stay. It’s just me so far so looking for a good spot for one guy to stay and then I’ll find all of the LSU fans at the various spots and join in.

There isn't much options to eat there. It's a tourist trap done by the Indians if I remember correctly. I would stop to eat in Boulder city and bring snacks then do dinner in vegas
