Not Your Typical Request for Advice on Las Vegas.

I'll be in Vegas June 17-27, and plan on playing a couple of the Binion's Poker Classic events, one or two local tournaments, and perhaps a WSOP event. However, most of my poker play will be in either stud or LHE cash games. Whatever other free time I have during the day will likely be spent playing golf. I've been to Vegas before and have a pretty good idea of where I will be playing poker and golf. However, this will be my first trip to Vegas on my own, and this is why I need some advice.

All my previous trips to Vegas were with my wife and all of my activities, aside from playing poker, were things we did together. I am now a widower and I'm completely clueless as to what to do for entertainment by myself in Vegas when I'm not going to be playing poker or golf.

I'm in my mid-50s, healthy and still like to have fun in crowds and meet new people. Are there any nightclubs, bars and/or shows a single guy my age would enjoy? Any other suggestions on things for me to do (or avoid doing)?

You'll probably want to see Love at Cirque du Soleil.

There are some pretty good pool parties at night at some of the hotels - the locals on the board can give you more info.
