Las Vegas Wet 'n Wild Water Park

[imported_Tomato]

Has anyone ever been there?

Is it worth checking out?

 

[pulse8]

Unless it's got naked women or blackjack tables, why should I go to it over some place closer to LA?

 

[ROTC1983]

Schlitterbahn in Texas was fun Don't know about that one though.

 

[Buttzilla]

was just in vegas the last month and stayed at the Hilton Grand Vacation which is across from wet'n wild....it didn't look to appealing. also, i read some reviews that they sometimes have a problem with *uh hum..* yellow omnimous clouds circulating among the pools (which isn't suprising).

we stayed away from the usual things to do at vegas, such as drinking and gambling all night, pm me if you want more info.

 

[rh71]

I'm going to Vegas. I'll meet you there.

Sun's House Korean BBQ, off of Flamingo. Fantastic.

I'll be in Vegas mon-fri next week. Maybe I'll check it out.

Are there hot teen girls there so that we can look at their crotches and say, "I see you are all wet baby"?

Sounds delicious but that isn't the "you bake yourself" kind of Korean BBQ is it?

I heard that there is a really nuts ride there called 'drop out'

about a 3 story fall straight down..... not too many people try it....

 

[Wduaqnug]

I think best wet nwild is in FL, all others are nothing close to it, they even have one in Cancun

agreed

 

[Buttzilla]

one more thing. you gotta check out the bellagio buffet the food there is by far the best. another note, to save money...hehe just found this out...go there right before the lunch buffet ends in about half an hour they'll start bringing out the dinner stuff. that way you pay for lunch and get dinner! save like 15-20 bucks person (dinner's like 36). we did this at mandalay bay also.

use the money you save a go buy the eiffle tower drink at paris. 12 bucks for this huge solid plastic eiffle tower filled with your choice of drink. hint...tip them before you order and make sure they see you tip them...they tend to give you more.

Nope, they make it for you. Pretty quick, fairly cheap, damn tasty. Lots of rice with it.

By the way, what the hell is the asian cuisine obsession with macaroni salad?

 

[RossMAN]

IMHO Asian food and macaroni salad don't mix unless it's Hawaiin food.

Thanks for the tip I'll have to keep a list of "must do, must see and must eat" places for our next LV trip.

 

[newbiepcuser]

It didn't look to pleasing when i drove by there.

 

[imported_Tomato]

Thanks so much for all the tips, everyone.

I guess I'm just exploring other options... I'll be going next weekend with a group of people, half of whom are only 20 years of age. Which prevents us from spending TOO much time at the tables... maybe I'll sneak off to play Pai Gow poker while they're splashing around. Although that 3-story drop off slide ride sounds pretty badass...

 

[newbiepcuser]

Las Vegas style Pai Gow, best game to get free drinks from. You could sit there hours and not win anything but be drunk off your arse from all the free booze.


:beer:

20? Hell, don't worry about it. If they get carded, move onto the next casino. There's no shortage.

 

[vegetation]

It's not a nice place, in poor condition with no hope for recovery, as Turnberry Place (the new mega condos nextdoor) is buying out the land as it's a major eyesore to their residents.

 

[her209]

Nice

 

[imported_Tomato]

Guess I'll be avoiding it, then... I'd rather spend $25 on a bet at the tables, anyway.

Hopefully my friends will be convinced of the same... what else is there to do for those under 21? No clubs, unfortunately...

There is outlets, of course Fry's Electronics now open at the end of the strip. Mirage has mini zoo with white felines and dolphins.

Downtown Las Vegas is always entertaining.

If you got the cash, you can do the blimp or helicopter tours.

***be warned*** Vegas might be packed, BlackHat and Defcon is next week I believe. Prepared for bunch of Anandtecher's types on Acid.

My buddy bought cases and cases of balls high energy drink. Mix that with a bunch vodka and bucnh of vent of kids and "hackers", you got trouble.
