When Are You Coming to Las Vegas

Mrp Alert · Sep 26, 06, 4:45 am

Since the Las Vegas forum has sprung back to life, it seemed appropriate to get a "When Are You Coming to Las Vegas" master thread organized. LAS is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world and we LAS folks would love to meet YOU! Besides, I really need an excuse to grab a few drinks and then post in This OMNI thread

Accordingly, we will need to gather a few bits of information from you to facilitate potential little get togethers.
1. When are you coming to town? Dates are vitally important

2. Why are you coming to town? Are you here for a convention, bachelor(ette) party, wedding, etc?
3. Where are you staying? Timeshare, hotel, motel, on-strip/off-strip
4. When is a good time to meet up? What activities did you have in mind?

I can not guarantee that I or any of the other crazy locals or tourists will get to meet every FlyerTalker who comes to our fine city, but we certainly shall try. Feel free to reach out to the locals or other folks in town at the same time to plan (un)official events. Please let me know what you all think of this thread and any changes I should make to the questionnaire.

Here is a summary of upcoming visitors until I figure out a better way to keep this in order. Perhaps a Yahoo Calendar or does anyone know something that works better?
Upcoming Events:
Deodorant Do IV (Or Fun in LAS, July 17-18

See you soon!

On your way out of town...you might consider the downtown First Friday art event. It looks like this month will include juggling instructions. So much of what out-of-towners see is EITHER spit-and-polish corporate images -OR- the seedy rotten crap. First Friday is a good reminder that real people inhabit Las Vegas.

Lonely Flyer · Oct 1, 06, 2:11 am

Be there Nov 6 to Nov 10. Holiday with wife and to play Holdem in Vegas. First live game ever for me.

Wife wants to do fashion malls etc
