You came throught with that list buddy!
Staying at the Elara from this tuesday till next monday.
At JFK right now, type early just returned on the red eye from 4 nights at Aria...
We hit up the club on the roof top at Paris Wed, the Encore pool jawn at night on Thurs, and Drais on Fri (Big Sean was there...didn't even know who dude was, but he wasn't bad). We also did Wet Republic one of those days (one dude had a cabana), sooo many females there, soo many....but a bunch of crazy white dudes too. I think we may have been the only group of brothas, but we had our own space and the females in Vegas are always cool as shit imo. Sat we did Liquid pool party at Aria and had a blast. Not as big as WR, but the females were real and friendly and the DJ was STRAIGHT.
Ill post more later, or if asked for any recommendations. Oh, and its hellllllaaaa hot out there right now..

Thanks fam so it's cool for brothers out there
Id say so. This was my third trip to Vegas, but the first time I really rolled DEEP and actually did the damn thing proper. There was like 12-18 of us between Aria, MGM and Tropicana (flew in from NY, DC & Boston). Diff personalities, but all mature and were down to have a good time.
Met ladies from all over..Ottowa, Calgary, Idaho, Wyoming, a gang from Sea, these fine sistas from Cle...oh and there were these sistas from the Bay who were talking to a few dudes in our group, they said they knew we were from the East Coast cuz dudes out there dont just start conversing with them like that
. They were cool though, so Im not sure what that's about..Anyway, back to your question: theres def some lowlifes in Vegas, but its not hard to avoid em, get into whatever you feel, and have your fun. Just go into it with some idea about how you want to spend your time, and execute.. Having said that, I know I wouldnt have gone as hard as I did had it not been for my boys having ideas/plans/party option lined up, so Im thankful for that, cuz this 3rd time really opened my eyes to how down these chicks are out there..
Thanks for the info fam. I'm going labor day weekend. the shows look to be on point as well looks like everyone is going to be out there.

..thats a ton of options. Have fun man
As far as the "eyes being opened" this time around: the other 2 times I just went with just a few heads and we didn't get into too much of the night life. It was more about bettin on these games, hit the gun range and just chillin....didn't really try to kick game too hard, but turns out you don't really have to go heavy, just have fun and realize everyone there is for that same reason and shitll pop off.
I really like Aria. Esp out of those 3, and probably more than Caesars and Wynn too, because of the location. Aria's sportsbook was dope too, which I hadnt really considered beforehand. More spacious than Wynns, and they streamed the Bears preseason game for me on a few of the TVs. Buffet was on point and reasonably priced. The pool scene was cool. Staff was attentive....Im def staying there again.
MGM wasnt as contemporary, and seemd dark and was huuuuge. Took us forever to get to the pool for WR.. I didn't go to Tropicana, but didnt hear nothin good about it [emoji38]
ReadyIm out here now for labor day weekend. Man it crazy out here this weekend. last night i was at that trey songz concert at drai nightclubs. Bad bitches everywhere. Drai nightclub is da spot. if you go to vegas dont miss Drai nightclub.....then hit Drai afterhours hip hop room.
Also chauteu rooftop club is great too. Great views of the city and everything. T-pain was there last night.
Bring good shoes during the day you will walk alot in vegas. I didnt want to rent a car i hate driving on vacation. U can also do the monorail as well.
Be sure to get a hotel on the strip.
Food: the buffet at planet hollywood is 50 bucks 24 hours limit good value deal. Also be sure to check the breakfast buffet at WYNN its worth it man.
I checked out the Umani burger at the SLS hotel. This hotel is further up the strip. But its pretty nice and for some reasons a lot of honies we down there. They also having lil wayne and fetty wap for a pool party sunday
I really like sportsbook at the ARIA hotel. there are other good ones as well like ceasears and belligio. But Aria is smaller and just fit my needs better. Won a few bets lost a few bets.
So far vegas has been a blast.

I was there, still recovering....lots of working girls but met two decent chicks that have potential
You pulled something out of where?
Drais
It's brisk as fuck outside right now.
What's the spot on thurs? Also what's the must eat spots?
Spent last three days in Las Vegas. I'm about to leave in a few hours. This has been one of the most disappointing trips I have ever been on.
My lady and I stayed at the West Grand. Checking in they tacked on an extra $35/night fee to use the Wi-Fi, pool, and gym. Then an employee immediately steered us to "guest services" who tried to rope us into a time share presentation. We refused, but they still tried to hit us up every time we walked thru the lobby. I eventually cussed one of them out which helped a little.
I lost $40 on the slots in the first hour so I went to the ATM for more money. Found out there was a $7 fee to take out cash. WTF?!! I don't mind losing money on a game, gambling works that way some times, but that kind of gouging made me feel cheated. Stayed away from the casino for the rest of the trip and paid for everything else with my debit card.
I live in San Francisco so please don't take it lightly when I say that Las Vegas is the most expensive American city I have ever been in. $4 for a small coffee, $1.29 for a gas station banana. Got a $10 pack of Newport's and the smoke shop wouldn't even give me matches, but were happy to sell a $1 lighter. $35 to see Boyz II Men, a group I saw at the Alameda County Fair for free. $70 for fucking Cameo? This is the WORST place to see a touring act.
This dessert shithole is certainly a Sin City, but the real sin isn't drinking, gambling or whoring. It's lying. One reason we chose this hotel was because of my lady's 2 for 1 buffet voucher. We get there and find out its only open on weekends despite being advertised as a 7 day a week spot. Uber drivers that say they're 5 minutes away, then run out of gas. Stores that advertise $1 photos, but make you buy a minimum of six. Zip lining spots that told my lady she could watch, but neglected to mention the $10 cover charge until she got there.
Don't even get me started on the rude and indifferent customer service all around.
Several locals told me things were way better when the mob ran things. That just says it all. Fuck Las Vegas. I wish I'd gone to Phoenix and hit up an Indian casino instead. Would have saved hella money and had way more fun.

Off of the strip, Vegas is one of the cheapest places in the country. I was there last week and the prices were a sight for sore eyes. Vegas is the Philippines compared to NY, DC, Hawaii, etc.
You got fucked by the West Grand, obviously-- I've never been there-- and, of course, there is price gouging on the Strip. But mentioning Vegas among the most expensive American cities is like placing it among the coldest.
I never got to see downtown. I'd there anywhere you can recommend?
My Vegas experience is largely as a local, so I'm not a great source for tourist recommendations. You've probably spent as much time on the strip as I have. I just know that one of the few positives about that city is that it's incredibly cheap compared to other major American cities. I actually just spoke to someone from San Francisco who was marvelling at how cheap the food is. But that person is an older person with lifelong friends there, not someone trying to party and such. The best advice I can give is don't grab your food from gas stations, tourist destinations and such-- I went to the ATM at a 7-11 near UNLV and the fee was around $2 as I'm used to; if you went to the Vons in that area, you could have gotten some cheap food. (The Smart & Final near UNLV may be your best bet. Of course, there are always places like Wal-Mart and more local/regional options like Sprouts.) I can't speak as to why a group like Boyz II Men is performing for free anywhere-- That's definitely not happening with major acts in Vegas. Entertainment may cost more than other places but the basics are really cheap.
I'll be back out there in a couple weeks, I'll drop some more pics and info for the fam.
