The MGM and Mandalay Bay parking spot counters/green/red status makes finding a spot super fast too.
Yeah, its a money grab but its not bad actually.
I hear you, but I expect on the busy times, long weekends, it'll be pretty bad, just like the valet lines. Plus, among things I do
not want is to have MGM link my license plate to my Mlife account.
Those red/green space lights are new to the Strip, but they are hardly a new idea. The outlet mall west of the freeway past the Stratosphere has had them for years.
