Default Re: caesars vs belagio

I just honeymooned in vegas and i stayed at caesars. I had one of their lower end rooms and i was impressed, the only thing that sucked in my room was the view which was another tower. The bathroom was very impressive i guess an oversized roman tub is standard, but it made for fun times [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

The next time i go i am going to pony up for a fountain view room at the bellagio, one of my favorite nights was when my wife and I went to a show and then watched the fountains for like an hour it was alot of fun and being able to watch it from my room would be pretty awesome.

I have no advice for comps, we spent most of our time traveling to different casinos, shows, food and doing what newlyweds do.

I really hope my sarcasm detector is on the fritz. Otherwise your advice is beyond horrible.

Anyone's whose wife "doesnt mind going to vegas as long as we do a nice show each evening and stay in a nice place" is N-O-T going to be happy with staying at T.I. and watching the Sirens.

Got to add my .02 here....

It drives me up the wall to hear men today - bowing down to women - and the demands made to women consistantly.

Sorry, your woman doesn't mind going to Vegas as long as she see's a nice show every night - crazy.

Here is some advice, go on your own.

OK - sorry about the rant, it's just that I've got a lot of married friends, and I'm sick of their women always making demands.

Onto Vegas.

I travel to Vegas at least 1 time per month.

TI - it's a piece of S compared to other casino's. I hate TI with a pasion - they've screwed me in the past, and I refuse to stay there any longer. The Cirque D' Soleil show there though is the best on the strip.

Ballagio - I love the casino and Poker - rooms are pricey. Women love it.

Wynn - as bellagio - but it's adult themed. No under 18 without adult supervision and no stollers. Fanatastic cocktail girls.

Venetian - another stellar casino - didn't spend much time there because no poker room up until recently.

Flamingo - I love staying here. I love their Jacuzzi's (outside) and Lindy's diner late at night (great servers). Most of all I like the central location.

Paris. - Hate it. TO noisey. To open.

NYNY - Rooms are OK. Don't like the casino itself - to open for my liking

Luxor - Not worth your time

MGM - Very nice place to gamble. Overpriced rooms comparitively.

Bally's. - A favorite hang out of mine. Go to the Tequilla bar 4-6 happy hour. Shot of Tequilla and a beer $3:50


If you want to go the players card route - select a hotel with a poker room rate - get the cards and stick to that casino for your major gambling.

On rooms - personally I never spend much time in the room - and quite frankly neither will you. I resent paying $200 for a room I never use except to get 5 hrs sleep and a shower. Save your money.

There is a difference between "bowing down" and being a considerate husband.

What is wrong with going to vegas with your wife and taking in a show every night as long as it is in the budget? Just what do you suggest is the proper protocol for compromise?

Last weekend a guy at the table was drinking heavily and having a good time. And about two hours after he sits down he mentions he's a newlywed. And he got married in Vegas. Today.

"You got married TODAY? Like a few hours ago?"
"Yep"
"Where's your wife?"
"I dunno...out there somewhere being pissed at me. She told me to get lost so I came in here."

He left about an hour later and a few hundred dollars lighter and someone set the over/under on how long his marriage would last at 18mo. About 6 people instantly said "UNDER!"

You people need new wives ....seriously

If my girl bitched about the Sirens show..especially the $$$$ [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Then it would definatly be time to keep my pimp hand strong !!!!!!

You are all like the evil borgataites
" I have to stay at the wynn or bellagio because it's so new and shiny "

200 bucks for a .. admittedly nice room
but downtown
You can get a suite for cheaper [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Throw your honey into a jacuzzi and get your thing on.

My girl would like the Sirens and a Jacuzzi Suite Downtown and a Six Pack of Miller Lite.
Final Price
Sirens= 0
Jacuzzi Suite= 99 bucks
Miller Lite= 5 bucks
Total 104 dollars

Your girl needs Celine Dion and a Overpriced room at the "new and shiny" place.

Celine Dion= New House Mortgage
"New and Shiny" room= Sell The Family Heirlooms
6 pack of Bartles and James Mohito's= keep your pimp hand strong.
Total Price= Gross National Product of some 3rd world countries.

You guys are whupped.

If my girlfriend starting whining about not spending enough money on her and Vegas Shows... I'd be like.... "HHHeyy you woman getca bitch ass back in the kitchen and bake me a pie"

Gotta keep your pimp hand strong... Your Pimp hand strong.... Your Pimp hand strong

Yeah, but she's probably used to hearing that in the trailer park.

I wish I could live in a trailer park... I'm tired of my parents always asking me to get off the computer because they need the phone.......

Your post is hilarious and has me snickering... that's if it's a joke.


Now if it's not a joke... well it's still funny and got a laugh out of me because that's something I would say [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Screw Caesars why : It's a 3 hour walk to get to the sidewalk I'm fat and lazy and I don't deserve that.

Screw the Bellagio why : I put a 5 dollar bill in the nickel slots and it started laughing at me. That's messed up.

Screw the Venetian why.. Well I actually like this place but after seeing the Movie House of Wax... I firmly believe that Madame Tussandes wax museum is a house of evil and I don't want to die on vacation.

Screw TI why : I never win there period. And the starbucks there ran out of sugar HTF can you run a coffee shop and run out of sugar (it was only for 10 min)

Screw Mandalay Bay why : I got stung by a jelly fish in the shark reef. And the talking birds in the lobby called me a fat lard... Rawwwllll fat lard... fat lard.. (damn birds)

Screw the Wynn why : They would not let me in with flippers on my feet and a six pack of busch pounders. Said I was not classy enough.

I'll be at the el cortez getting robertas comps for my 5 dollar craps bets.

I'll be at the Vegas club eating 1.99 steak and eggs after midnight.

I'll be at the western and gold spike snorting crack and heroin for 1.50

I'll be at the Circus Circus eating REAL BUFFET FOOD

I'll be at penny town in the Rivera hitting on the old ladies

The hell with your swanky expensive room expensive food joints with 6/5 blackjack and 345 odds.

I'll save my money on smoke filled little heavens with 10x odds 3/2 blackjack, dirty hypnotists, loose slots, full pay video poker yeahhh baby yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
