The third was just stupid drunken tourists. Solo venimos, solo nos vamos. Y aqui nos juntamos, juntos que estamos. |

Thanks for sharing those. There's no way a comment as simple as "a black man in a yellow shirt" was enough to escalate into a fight, though, right? That's not even racist. To throw a monkey-wrench into this, places like O'Sheas are just downtown properties located on the strip, as far as I'm concerned. I might even include Bill's in that mix. All of those slots-a-fun, casino royale, and o'sheas type casinos that are open to the strip are just like DT and definitely attract a lower echelon of person. I don't say that in a judgmental way or with any sense of superiority, because I have gambled at all of them...but there's good reason I haven't been to any of them in probably 3-4 years. I gamble late at night, and those aren't the types of places that attract nice people at 3AM. They're definitely fun, but not for any serious gambling or carrying a serious amount of cash. |

People also ask where you are staying in Vegas as a quick way to gauge how flush you are or how much you play. Much like some of the hotel mentions on this forum. |

I'm pretty sure those weren't the exact words used. Solo venimos, solo nos vamos. Y aqui nos juntamos, juntos que estamos. |

Which one were you talking about? Mandarin? |

That's what I'm thinking...there must have been some words beginning with "F" or "N" to incite that amount of anger, right? |

When the boyfriend or husband is paying, sure. Otherwise you'd be surprised where a woman is willing to go ;) Speaking of that, is it legal to carry pepper spray and/or a taser in Vegas?
Sure. But also better than those at IP, Flamingo, Casino Royale and other Strip properties. a new luxury hotel usually beats an older one of the same class, at least for a few years. This space is closed for remodeling |

Mandarin Oriental is part of City Center, so no. Sigh. I was talking about the one with the lake, the dancing fountains, poker central (except, possibly, during the WSOP), the apple of Steve Wynn's eye once upon a time, the current crown jewel of the MGM empire, the one, the only, BELLAGIO. |
