    Alright VF Nation - AnonVPnerdsDude here. Back at it. I've got a jam packed Vegas Itinerary. It's been several months since I've been back to Vegas - March Madness to be exact. I'm going to try some new things and places this trip. Here's the schedule and some to do's:

    I get in early morning on Tuesday 8:00 a.m. Vegas time. Got a car picking me up and off to Red Rock Resort. I have a cruise certificate and freeplay offer/promo. Staying there Tuesday and Wednesday with a late check out on Thursday. Host got me a suite this time. It'll be my first time staying in a suite at Red Rock so I'm pretty excited about that. I'm thinking it's because it's a weekday stay. I'm looking forward to the pool. Will ask my host for a cabana. Also, need to schedule a massage appointment. Going to check out Blue Ribbon Sushi, haven't tried that since it's opened. I should try the buffet too as I haven't tried that either. Other than that, I'll do some meals at some of the usual places. 8 Noodle Bar, Yard House, Hearthstone, and Lucille's. Check out late on Thursday and then will get a car to move over to The Palms for a Amex card promo. Will probably roll in around 4pm. Looking forward to meeting up with @ted_nancy - he should be rolling in late that night. Degen session for sure! The Palms have done a ton of remodeling at their place so I look forward to checking that out. I'll check out the pool there, and also do a massage. When you degen for 12-14 hours straight in a day, massages every other day are a must :) Lots of great restaurants to try out at The Palms. I'm there until Saturday so hopefully will get in a couple nice meals. Thinking a few of the following for dinners: Scotch 80 Prime, Vetri Cucina, Shark, Sara's, Mabel's BBQ, or Greene St Kitchen. On Saturday early afternoon, I'll check out and move over to The Wynn. It'll be my first time staying there. Not quite sure what to expect in terms of dining and other things. I'll spend some time checking Wynn/Encore out. I'm double booked on the strip at Harrah's because I want to take advantage of some freeplay, as well as food comps. I plan on checking out tenors of rock at Planet Hollywood on Sunday night and Menopause the musical on Monday night at Harrah's. Shows that I haven't seen before.

    I'd also love to try a dole whip.... suggestions for places to get them on strip?

    I'm hoping my buddy @jyen will surprise me with a last minute 24 hour button smashing trip out to Vegas

    Just missing @3vees and @Lousyatcraps as they're in Vegas as I type this out. Sorry to miss you guys!

    Maybe my SoCal friends @Sindustry @Aaron5 @VegasMonkey and @Phampau will make a guest appearance?

    Throwing some shout outs so y'all can follow along. Will try to keep things as "live" as possible, but when the degen sessions start, expect hours of silence!

    @Goldenknight @MNSlotLover @Texas Steph @Riders @TR888 @NickPappageorgio @Figment76 @VegasChic @tringlomane @MissL7777 @Wanker751 @IrishDave

    Two more sleeps!

    - I hope so.... it'll be interesting because I'll have the promos that I'm playing for but will definitely stab and dabble. @ted_nancy advise..... I'm seriously thinking about it after watching @jyen go batsh*t crazy!

    -ummmmmm........????

    Dang! Always seem to be just missing one another! Cool, will Google Dole Whip, Bally's. Yeah, I am seeing Menopause the musical LOL. I'm taking advantage of the diamond status two free show tickets thing at CET. Since I'll be there in June and July, I can get tickets to both shows. Just trying to spend some time in Vegas doing a few other things instead of gambling the whole time.... there's a 50/50 chance I get the show tickets but then skip the shows and gamble anyways....

    Appreciate it, thanks!!!

    This should be a good one. Looks like a full itinerary too. Curious to see your impressions on Palms. I always say I need to go there, but then never do :sweatsmile:

    Dec. 2012 for me. Considering it's been remodeled, I definitely should go. The only place I ever saw "Crazy Taxi" the slot machine. I wasted a lot of quarters on that when I was younger.

    I've stayed there maybe 5-6 times in the last few years. I really like the resort a lot. It's definitely more of a party atmosphere in my opinion (which I don't prefer as much) but it's Stations, so it offers good VP options, the dining is solid, and it's off the strip (which is something I had been looking more and more into after spending so many trips on the strip). I'm assuming you meant impressions after all the construction/re-modeling? I'm definitely curious too. I'll take as many pics of the place as I can and post! :)

    Thanks, Nick! Will do!

    Thanks so much!!

    Thank you! Good luck to you! I used to frequent the Luxor quite often but my favorite host no longer works there so it's been a while since I've been back.

    Safe travels and good luck to you! Feel free to TR hijack and post any side casino news on here :) Thanks!

    Thanks! Send me a PM or just post on here. I'll be at Red Rock Tuesday - Thursday. I might head out to the strip on Wednesday. A friend of mine lives in Vegas and we're trying to figure out a time/place to meet up. Either I'll go to the strip, or she'll come out to Red Rock. Where are you staying?

    Try Mabel’s, thought it was really good; Sara’s not so much.
