    I was referring to an old post on another site where someone said to take your bellagio comp and shove it lol. I thought it was you but im probably wrong.

    I thought you might have been referring to that. That was awesome. If memory serves it was "You rich mofo's can take your free Bellagio offers and shove them up your f+cking asses"

    Breezy! Breezy! Breezy!

    Well everyone, I really appreciate the feedback and the opinions. If I was solo I would have gone with The Mirage because I love the pool and the old school feel. Although MGM has done everything they can to remove much of that vibe. But, while JR would have been happy with either, I think she secretly wanted MGM so I locked it up. So I am double booked with four nights at CP (I will cancel the fourth night when I get there) and two nights at MGM. The only reason I am not going 2-2 is that I get $375 in free play on my third night at CP. If they are going to pay me $375 to stay....who am I to say otherwise right? I haven't stayed at MGM in about 4-5 years so this will be a nice change from my usual mid strip.

    Thanks for the feedback. The TR will start sometime soon as we leave next Friday.

    I'll see what I can do. I also bought a couple new bathing suits so you also have that to look forward to......right?? Being that my current bathing suit is about 3-4 years old, I thought it might be time to get a new one even though I KNOW I could get another 5 years out of my current one.

    Will be looking forward to your report. I've been thinking about trying an MGM property, just to see how I like it and what kind of offers I might get after a couple days of decent play. Now that the aspirations levels are gone, there's not much reason for me to go over 25k tier with CET, as I'm not getting to 7*.

    Good luck!

    Look forward to the report!

    You also would want Mirage solo because you could walk to Harrah's and TAG!!! That's why I want Mirage next trip. LOL

    But overall, I think JR at least would prefer MGM. Better pool by far. Nicer room too. The only real minus is relative location, imo.

    A little late here, but I'll second MGM, but it's a really close call. The Mirage pool is great but often far too crowded, and the lazy river at MGM is pretty fantastic. MGM also has better, larger rooms, and better mid-day dining options. However, the casino at MGM seems too spread-out to me, with too much empty space, and Mirage has a couple of my favorite restaurants for dinner in Vegas (especially Stack). And while the Mirage location is marginally better, the extent to which that matters depends a lot on how much casino-hopping you really plan to do, and to where. It's easy enough to get from MGM to Mandalay, NY-NY, MC, Aria, etc.

    I agree with all of the above, though I have never eaten at Stack. I have considered it a couple times.

    The trick is to get the sea bass and a side of mashed potatoes, and then mix in the lobster broth.

    I'd also add that it depends on your gambling habits. If you stay strictly within the Mlife ecosystem, then MGM is a superior choice due to its neighbors. At Mirage, by contrast, if you want to play at another Mlife property, you have to walk all the way over to Bellagio before you get to another option.

    So this pool thing you guys are all talking about. I’ve been late night when closed. Or have seen them from my room But hardly ever when it is open. Beeejay and Borat got me to the Caesars pool. Once. And I’ve gone to the Wynn tower suite pool.

    Macker chicken out going down the slide at the D. So. I don’t know much about them. Just know I want to go but never make it like the Pinball HOF or getting a Royal Flush. (Only had one of both of these)

    So. gaggles please post pics of whatever pool you go to since I never make it to them so I can see this side of Vegas I miss out on

    The only MGM pool I saw was this one


    [​IMG]

    I still have never seen the Mirage pool.

    But I’m going to make it happen one of these days.

    I’ll make a vegas pool tour of all the pools on the strip. LMFAO.
    Odds of that happening?


    A billion to one

    I will get the TR started soon as departure is only 6 days away. I will post a lot of pool pics. Don't you worry.

    The issue is if he went to the pool he would make every boyfriend and husband look 100xs worse..

    He doesn't go to save marriages
