I can't agree more... again because I'm and old dog 30 years ago Vegas was all about debauchery but at my age it has been decades since getting $hitfaced was a hobby... and now drinks are so expensive it cost a small fortune to get drunk in LV.

Gambling has lost is shine too... used to be tossing money around was fun, pertending to be a big shot... now I lose $100 and I'm thinking about better ways I could have spent the money.

The sidewalks are a freak show (and that coming from a Los Angeles native)

And the freeway from L.A. to L.V. has become a parking lot.

I do have to hand it to them about the architecture, 40 story building where the whole side of the building is a light show... casinos built out from the strip to I15
