I will take some time during the day and head off the strip to visit the Palms, the Rio, and the Gold Coast. Why, you probably didn't ask? Because I have never been there.
The three casinos are clustered a little ways off the strip. Way too far to walk, but there is a free shuttle bus that leaves from Bally's. I honestly don't know much about them. I know the Palms is a classy, upscale joint for the hipsters, I know that Rio has a popular nightclub for the over 40 crowd, and I know that Gold Coast is part of the Boyd group, meaning it's a decent low-roller place. I've also heard that the buffet at Gold Caost is cheap and pretty good, so maybe I'll do that too.
Oh, and I've heard that the cocktail waitresess at the Rio wear very skimpy outfits. I will investigate this rumor thoroughly.
So, once again, as a free service to all my stalkers, here is my itinerary thus far:
- Holsteins at the Cosmopolitan
- The Mob Museum downtown
- Margaritaville at the Flamingo
- Public House at the Venetian
- Canevale at the Palazzo
- Rio/Gold Coast/Palms
