Well, there's lots of good shows to see while there. The Bellagio's dancing lights are always cool ( and free! ) Does Treasure Island still have their pirate show outside? That's a free one too. You can also rent cars by the hour there. I think next time I'm down there I'll rent a Porsche 911 just to say I've driven one. Just watch out for the "handouts" on the streets.

Jawsy? Other recommendations?

Well, Bellagio still has their water show, and it is awesome to see. Treasure Island changed their show, it's now all female!!

As for anything else their is to do, I'm not too sure. As I really don't go on the strip. Too much craziness down there. I'm sure Hung can find something to do though....

Well there's always shows of some sort, comedy, dance, musical's. Usually always some kind of large event to. Call your hotel and ask what's in town, or WHO's in town. That's one place that there's ALWAYS something to do!

Even if you venture outside of Vegas, there's hoover dam, hell...LA's only a quick 4 hour drive!! LOL

Will they even let you tour Hoover dam anymore? We did, but it was a year or so before 9/11, it was awesome! My other favorite was visiting the Grand Canyon via and Indian reservation that does tours. Man, they drive that old school bus right up to the edge!

Not sure about the Dam tours. I did the tour myself a year before 9/11 as well.

If you like to gamble and know how to play craps, might I suggest visiting The Statosphere casino? They have a "crapless" craps table and pay very good odds. The last time my wife and I went, we walked away with about $5K over two evenings (of course, we both know how to play fairly well).

Other than that, why get into some serious trouble and see if you land on the TV show "Cops"? They seem to film a lot in Las Vegas (well, that and Albuequerque).

Have fun!
