For me, a bite to eat followed by 4 hours or so of dice. Then, some sleep.

Why are you coming to Vegas?

A) Food & Drink
B) Gambling
C) Naked Ladies
D) All of the Above

You answer will affect what you do in your first few hours

Your decision to get a rental car is interesting - and suggests that maybe you want to get off the strip?

You're already here?
Well, if you haven't found anything to do yet, call 911 cause you must be in a coma.

I have some suggestions on my website that might be of interest, assuming you are actually in your hotel room searching the Internet instead of downstairs and just, you know, looking around?

What time are you arriving? Usually, you gotta get checked into the hotel first so you can dump your stuff. If it's meal time, then find a restaurant. If it's daylight, then the pool might be the way to go. If it's evening, then alcohol, clubs, shows, or naked ladies is the way to go. If it's really late, go hang out at a bar and play "spot the hooker". Gambling is good any time. If it's a first visit, then walking the strip in the early evening is recommended - watch the Bellagio fountain show, catch the Mirage volcano.
