Bellagio or Aria Sportsbook.?

Aria is more comfortable. Both have average drink service. You should get 2 or 3 drink tickets if you wager that much

 

I'm partial to Bellagio as it is my home base but I don't think you can go wrong with either one. The interior of Bellagio sports book is now non-smoking (smoking allowed at bar but not in the rest of the sports book) if that makes a difference.

 

For nights where there's only one big event going on, I slightly prefer Bellagio to Aria -- they have bigger main screens which are visible from pretty much any seat in the house. Aria, by contrast, has a few big screens but also a lot more smaller screens, making it great for an NFL Sunday when there are ton of games going on, but somewhat distracting when there's just one game that pretty much everyone will be watching. As mentioned, though, you can't really go wrong with either one.

Sorry this is a super late reply and you've already taken your trip to Vegas. I was in Vegas for a long Thanksgiving break and spent most the time betting on football. In case others are interested...

All MGM resorts give out one drink coupon for $100 wagers - tip: make sure you place your bets at once that total up to $100... if you do it separately, there's no guarantee that they will remember you especially if the book is busy. If you go back to the same person, there's a good chance they may remember and give you a little something extra.

Bellagio is much bigger and has the big 4 screens. One thing I didn't like when I was there was that they had many of the seats as reserved seating. Most of the other seats were individual like seating (kind of like a movie theater). They have a bar section... as long as you're ordering drinks and food, you can sit there as well. We spent all our time at Aria... it's a little awkward as it's kind of a long room, as oppose to it being more square shaped. Depending on the direction you sit in, you can watch most any of the TV's... it was definitely less busy than Bellagio.

Hope you won and had fun @Willie
