i think vegas is the best show in vegas. so, personally, i would eat a bunch of mushrooms and go for a punt ride on the square nile that circumnavigates the floorspace of the luxor.
i am not sure that my idea of fun in vegas would line up with yours, but anyway were i going here's the kind of thing i would be interested in:
don rickles is doing a show on the 27th. i thought he was dead. that's why i would go.
there's a "tribute to journey" happening at the silverton hotel and casino on the 27th. nothing says vegas quite the way a steve perry impersonator does.
i would check out penn and teller too. and maybe a boxing match at the mgm grand--but i would also try to catch l. frank baum's great grandson as he descends from a replica of oz to sign copies of a book he did not write. it's just inside the main entrace to the casino.
o yeah: the shopping mall attached to the casino where the staff wanders around in gladiator outfits contains the single most vulgar spot on earth. see if you can find it.
