Vegas...All things related. Who is going? Mark...tailgate possibility?

[llandz]

Booked a hotel room at the Courtyard just south of the stadium and walking distance. I know. Old lady boring. But I can come and go from the strip. I may switch to NYNY when they reopen for reservations. I am Marriott Platinum so want to stay in their family of hotels.
Currently arriving on Friday (due to Jewish holiday) and leaving on Monday.

I’ll be there with my son. Expect to drive up from Rancho Mirage. Looking for rooms.

 

[CuseTroop]

I'm going, haven't picked a hotel yet.

I have a couple canopies, some grills, some chairs. A truck to haul things ect. We can make a tailgate happen for sure.

Unless everyone just wants to get hammered at the Luxor and walk over before kick off, which is fine with me too lol

 

[OttoinGrotto]

I should definitely be in. This is even drivable and if that's how I go, I can bring some equipment, in theory.

 

[llandz]

I'm most likely going to fly. If I drive I could bring stuff up. But not likely...Plus I can walk from the hotel.

If you fly, and you land before I start drinking on Friday, I'll scoop you up from the airport

She doesn't know it yet- But Ladytroop is down to make a few hundred eggrolls!

Great to know...I can help get stuff ready for a tailgate with you then before you hit the strip for the night.

Ladytroop brought up Park MGM as a good option for some. The whole place, even the casino, is non smoking. Rooms are nice, casino is nice and usually quieter (unless the knights have a home game). NYNY, MGM Grand Excalibur are all in easy walking distance. Quick walk to the free tram that takes you to the Bellagio, and a quick walk the other way to the free tram that takes you to the Luxor and route to the stadium. If they're not already, they will be part of Marriot rewards before October.

Might be a good option for folks who wanna experience the strip, without too much craziness

I’d love to go so I’m going to do whatever I can to make it happen. Hopefully it’s not Parents Weekend at whatever college my son ends up going to.

Maybe he wants to study hospitality at UNLV.

Not up yet on rewards, but I did find the email that they will be adding it. So I might switch to this if they do. It won't give me Platinum upgrades or let me use any of my free nights, but may be more things around for me to do. If you say it is non smoking, that is huge.

I stayed there in December for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. And as you state, it's south enough on the Strip to be closer to the stadium and away from too much of the craziness.

 

[FreakTalksAboutSU]

Couldn't pay me to go to Vegas willingly.

 

[orangesox44]

I’m in! Anybody know the best time of year to book that flight from Syracuse?

[UpstateSM]

I almost shed a tear of pride when my girlfriend texted me today saying she already took that Friday and Monday off without me even bringing it up

 

[cusefan88]

Park MGM seems like a happy medium. Want easy travel on GameDay and definitely want to do some people watching on the Strip as well.

 

[Nicknack]

What's happening in Vegas?

 

[NineOneSeven]

I want to go to Vegas this year as I have never been. Seems this could be a great chance for it, need to plan it out.

I'm a pretty boring hang tbh, but I'd hang with you if you come.

[AlaskaSUfan]

I’m in. Airfare bought last night. Casino host work that end for me already. Aria, vdara, ParkMGM all line up on tram and Bellagio on other end of Tram.
Hockey or concert may be a possibility too.

I haven't been to a big away game since LSU. The parts I remember, I really enjoyed.
