    Crown and Anchor pub at Tropicana and Maryland British pub with multiple beers on tab, good food and good prices. Batista's whole in the wall itallian resturant one block off the strip on Flamingo (across from the back of Balley's). they've been there forever. The menus are written on the walls, and the rest of the walls are covered with pics of the various celebraties who have eaten there over the years (Sinatra, Elvis, etc.). take in a lounge act at one of the casinos. usually pretty good bands, and you can sit down with a drink and relax for awhile (or get up and shake it). dueling piano bar at NYNY (although there are others scattered through out the city). Play video poker at the bar and tip the bartender (if you're playing the drinks are free). Even if you only tip $1 a drink, they'll keep coming back and you can get pretty buzed before you loose what you put in the machine. The fountain at Belagio at night. The top of Stratesphere for great views of the entire valley. If going to a show or reservation someplace other than your hotel, give yourself extra time to get there. Just walking through the large hotel/casinos takes more time than you might think. Have a great time.

    Lots of great ideas. I have to agree with many on Zumanity and Absinthe. Both were amazing. Get a seat on the couch for Zumanity and maybe be part of the show. We had VIP for Absinthe and it is a cozy venue.

    I recommend Sugar at Paris for Breakfast/Brunch. We sat outdoors and watched the tourists go by.

    If you want to spot a celebrity, go to The Palms. This is where we always stay and someone is always there. Once we rode up the elevator to our penthouse with Floyd Merriweather Jr. and his entourage at 5 AM. I also met a couple boys from One Direction, though I did not know it until later. LOL They also have an amazing steakhouse called N9NE, GHOSTBAR club has an amazing view of the city and pool parties. This place is off the beaten path and probably not for Vegas newbies. We have been there so many times, we like the less touristy place. Never a cab line.....

    Fremont Street is cool. I like the Forum Shops at Caesar's Palace. ("You Probably Get This A lot But, Does Caesar Really Live Here?"), I couldn't resist.

    We saw The Bodies exhibit in January. It is at The Luxor. If you are into that kind of thing, it is cool. We are both in medical field so we found it fascinating.

    For rides, there is coaster at NYNY and scary rides at The Stratosphere. For a Gondola ride, complete with an Italian song, go to The Venetian. They also have some high dollar shopping.

    As others recommend, you have to see the Bellagio fountains. I see them every time and I love it each time.

    If you go with girlfriends, The Chippendales do not disappoint.

    Next time, (I think in March or April) we hope to see the rock band at Mandalay Bay and I still want to see Peep Show. :)

    I 2nd that! The bar is called the Carnival Court and is one of my favorite places to hang-out at when I am there. I will be in Vegas from 3/26 to 3/29 and will probably end up there just about ever night. The party atmosphere at the Carnival Court is very similar to TTR.
