There is a line to place bets.
90% of seats in the sports book are reserved.
Kind of sucks.

Now, if you are a high roller or with a high roller, the worlds your oyster.

A bunch of guys in a designated space with all kinds of TVs gambling and drinking all day. Exciting but gets old after the 2nd day.

There are plenty of decent casinos on the strip with wide open seating for gambling. Seriously. It’s great if you know where to go.

You walk up to a nondescript desk and place your bets.

They give you little receipts.

You then go and watch the games on a bunch of TVs and people kind of mill about.

From time to time a group of 5 or less makes some noise regarding a game.

Occasionally, people get worked up for one game in particular.

Someone will yell "frick" or "shite."

If you win, you go back to that desk from earlier and they give you money.

If you lose, you keep drinking and betting or just drinking. Maybe order some finger foods.

MUCH better when you're winning.

If you live where they're available...phone apps are the way to go. Avoid the lines / crowds.

Tons of fun. Make a bunch of bets and then find a seat with a tv, get hammered, and watch sports all day.

My dream is to go opening weekend of college football and sit my arse down with coffee and breakfast at 9am Vegas time and go to my room to sleep when the PAC 12 games end that night

Have a smoke, eat some food, step outside for air, go play a few rounds of blackjack at halftime.......sure why not

Crazy Cubes please help a poor shite bird out buddy. What is considered a “high roller”? Do they really provide any women or narcotics that you request?
