Vegas? Seriously? Vegas was cool when I was 22 years old.
No thank you.
I only go to the Clios because it's in Miami. Also it's great because there's only so many places people will go to hang out around Collins, so you can wander around and run into people from the show - in Vegas, not likely. Boo. Count me out.
vegas?? BAD move, south beach is SO much cooler. vegas is home to every dorky conventioneer in the world. boo.
OK, OK. I'm sorry if I have fun when I go to Vegas!
Vegas is fun, once every 3-4 years.
Nothing like a bunch of pretentious advertising people, I'm one of them, surrounded by 64 year old women playing slots and Joey Jersey pretending he's in Swingers at the $1 minimum black jack table.
I'm sure they are going for the "if the show sucks, at least there's 1000 other things to do" factor. I agree with the every 3-4 years comment, because it's almost a new Strip every 3-4 years.
