hey guys,
im going to vegas for the ball, and i am flying my date in on the 1st which is a friday. we have friday, sat, and part of sunday before the ball, and i was wondering what there is to do in vegas when you arent of the age to gamble or drink. i dont do either that much anyways, but im sure someone here has been there in my shoes. i really dont want to see sigfried and roy, or wayne newton for that matter, lol. any comments would be appreciated.

Hmmm,,,

New York New York has a roller coaster and so does The Stratosphere....they are at complete oposite ends of the strip. Hard Rock Hotel is cool...has a great restaurant and live shows at night.
The Belagio has "O" it's Cirque Du Sloeil.....now before you say anything....IT'S ABSOLUTLEY AMAZING!!! $100 a ticket though...if you can get them.
It's also cool just to walk around and see all the diffrent hotles. Some have free shows you can watch outside.
Belagio has the dancing water show at night...very cool and romantic.
Treasure Island has the Pirate ship battle
If youre feeling really rich you can take a helicopter ride around the strip...never did it but I bet your chick would dig it!!
There are lots of other little shows and stuff at the hotels. Just go to their web sites and take a look.

Hope that helps.

yeah i saw the hoover dam. i must say it sucked. it was the most un impressive historical land mark i have ever seen. lol as for the girls with no tops on, lets just say ive gotten that covered. never under estimate the "dress blue alphas" :D lol anyways, i have been to vegas before, but i didnt spend alot of time there, that and i have 400 bucks for 2 days, i think i can cover it, but you know how that goes...lol aside from the extremely nice dinner i have planned, the rest of the time i have no idea of what to do, the new york new york is nice, and so is the mgm grand. lol the beligio is 440 a nite!!!!!!!!!! who in their right mind (aside rich gamblers) can afford that?!? that is like giving up 2 gf4 4600s a nite! ugh! hey and if i can get into that water show i think i will, that sounds good.

Well the water show at the Belagio is free and its at the big pool in front of the hotel so there is plenty of space to watch. The other thing to do is go to the restaurant on to of the Stratosphere...great view.

It is in the Stratosphere Hotel on the North end of the strip. It is the the tower where the roller coaster is. It has windows 360 degrees so you can see the strip below....it might even rotate but I'm not sure about that.

Here is the link and it DOES rotate....360 degrees in one hour.

The gondolla is a good call though.....
