    Vegas for NCAA Tourney

    Sup y'all-

    headed to Vegas for the second weekend of the tourney (s16 and elite eight) staying at Caesars.

    Anyone got tips for a first time Vegas-er? 23 years old recent college grad looking to gamble party and meet girls.

    Also like to puff greenery if anyone has insight into strictness and/or pot culture there.


    cheers to all

      Get a cabana at Club Rehab (pool party at Hard Rock)

      Spend a night downtown in old lad vegas - Fremont Street experience - cheap $2 bottles of coronas and heinekins, good gambling and walking around type night.

      Clubs a bit overrated IMO, don't spend $500 and 3 hours waiting in line - and without girls you will never get a group of guys into a hot club without paying a club promoter.

      Cosmo & PH are fun party/gamble spots

            Who's we? "Feast on them"? Are you implying you take action from out of towners, or just that you eat young boy ass

                    Games start early - hardest thing about when I was 23 in Vegas was getting any sleep. You gamble/party all night long and games start at 9am. I learned to put the 9am games in the night before (remember books not open all night -at least werent 10 years ago) and then do rock paper scissors for who had to get the 11am games in.

                    TLDR: make sure you put the early games in the night before if you like anything on the early slate.

                        I would still just bet w/ my local and save cash for partying/other gambling unless I was playing a huge play or just trying to slam a round robin...

                            dont get a cabana-way over priced in my opinion

                            do a big group dinner with whoever you have going in your group one of the nights. We went to craft steak one year our group- really good steaks.

                            games dont start quite as early in those rounds (16 and 8) so dont feel like you need to get up super early. Even still, watch the first games in your room while you are recovering then go watch the games at a sportsbook. It's not nearly as crowded that weekend as it is the opening weekend.

                            go to treasures strip club. Its off the beaten path, but you will not be disappointed

                            also, get everyone in your group to make the same bet. way more fun doing that and you can all celebrate the winner together.

                                        If you are looking for tail, remember a lot of the girls are there for same reason you are. Don't waste too much time on one of it doesn't seem like it will end how you want. Vegas is whole different world for most - including me.

                                        I agree with a few others. Save on the cabana for now. Do that when you either have some girls or bigger group with you. Get your feet wet this year and plan how to do it better next year!

                                            I agree with Dom, stay away from the clubs. Waste of time and money, plenty of woman walking around anyways. I also liked hanging around the old strip. Some cool old time bars over there that beers are cheap.

                                                              Coach I got blasted last year, just ask Booya, he met up with me about 12 deep already and we ripped shots til I blacked out. Great time. I made sure to get all my bball bets in earlier in the day.

Or does it require some physical setup or paperwork at the book first? Also how does cash out then work....Never used the apps before obviously, thanks for any info
