I don't...I do love me a good shrimp cocktail. <br /><br />I don't know how I would ever achieve even platinum status at Caesars since I play very little slots and video poker. I played about 7 or 8 hours of cash games at Bally's on this last trip and earned a whopping 251 tier credits. My next trip to Vegas will likely be the week before Thanksgiving or the week before Christmas. If the wife comes along we are staying in a Terrace room at Cosmopolitan. If I'm solo I'll book the cheapest mid strip location I can find.

Las Vegas has lost a lot of its charm and seems to be after every nickle you have. When I was at Sam's Town in June, some of the guys with me were making fun of the shrimp cocktail I ate at the sports bar. Part of the reason I ordered it was nostalgia. I long for the days of 99 cent shrimp cocktail and cheap half pound hot dogs. The shrimp cocktail at Sam's was $2.99, but there was a ton there. <br /><br />I'm looking at going back at the Labor Day weekend where the B Connected places offered me a couple free nights - without even any resort fees! However, I am only a lowly Platinum at Caesars, so even if my room is cheap, the stoopid resort fee is around $35/night. <br /><br />At least Las Vegas is still able to give us a good time.lightning36https://www.blogger.com/profile/05641629003610446976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794285200812210278.post-54948509169870275272019-07-08T12:12:27.544-07:002019-07-08T12:12:27.544-07:00Good report, thanks.
