Like the Barenaked Ladies song "It's All Been Done.............Before!" It's specifically what it has to offer on the inside that will determine my overall verdict. I've generally not been a fan of their brand at all with how clinical and cookie-cutter it is, but I'm dearly hoping this one will be different. I'm skeptical, but will give it a fair shake in 2027.

Funny how people that work in Vegas aren't connecting the dots. Previous generations would drink and gamble more in Vegas because Vegas was way more affordable back then. The strip has basically turned into Disneyland where you just get gouged at every opportunity.

Happy New Year Guys!! Thanks as always for the great info and summaries!! Holding the F1 Race on the LV Strip is one of the worst moves the County Commissioners and LVCVA ever did. For a three-day event the disruption, wasted gas, and wasted time has been insane. 2024 was obviously better than 2023 in the way that armed robbery is better than murder. However I've talked to several people who got caught unawares by the F1 pre-race/F1 post-race disruptions in 2023 or here in 2024 that say they'll go elsewhere. The public, Strip workers/near-Strip workers, and average businesses in the area are the big losers while F1 and a handful of casinos do well. Private gain versus public losses. I'm pro free enterprise but this "public-private partnership" for F1 is an overall bad deal for Las Vegas.

Vegas needs to find more ways to eliminate fees, not create new fees. I'm pretty much over Vegas because of the skillful ways they find to nickel and dime you to death. If I want to gamble, plenty of local casinos to satisfy that itch. I think you're going to see a continued decrease in visitors due to this mentality. Good show as always fellas.

I used to visit 2 to 3 times a year. Most of the time was to visit family and dine out. Our last time we visited we were charged for parking and resort fees. I never use the resort amenities but paid for it under the resort fee conditions. We now visit Vegas every 3 years due to the gouging cost. With time I will visit every 5 years or more until I do not visit anymore. I can afford Vegas and spend money as I choose but not being fees for something I do not use.

The problem with the whole seat tier is that Vegas has a habit of not mentioning things. I have no Issue with a table minimum for “premium seating”, but to sit down to eat and then get a bill with a $50 charge for sitting somewhere would get me to complain for sure and not come back. Hopefully its waived for Gold and above. All these fees and greed are going to have to level out. Not being political but our country is getting tired of being told it has to do things a certain way and to just pay and shut up. Look for tourist numbers to slump and it needs to happen. 3 guys and a slice was a great video ,don't let the haters win, but if you guys do pasta next time Mark and Shawn need to Lady and Tramp it. 😂😂😂😂

Having been a 'tech bro' who went to Vegas a few times to support sales kickoffs, the problem with the industry when they visit Vegas is they pack each day from the early morning to sometimes 9pm or 10pm at night with training or other events that just mentally drain the participants. By the time we're let go, we just want to grab a snack and get to bed. Usually there is one "fun night", but the companies usually pre-pay a restaurant or nightclub and close it down for our use only. I only knew a few of the younger employees who'd still find a way to get out and into trouble in Sin City.

Most of the time I prefer MGM properties to Caesar's but for the first time in quite a while I've booked a room at Harrah's. The deals I've been getting from MGM have progressively gotten worse so I've switched back to Caears's for now. As long as my room is nice enough, I don't really care. Aside from price, the location on the strip is my main priority. As far as the guitar blocking the strip views, I remember when the Luxor was rather dominating on the skyline but now it's barely visible. The views do change.

2:40 If any of the 5 entries who had Tampa week 18 hedged using to point spread and took the Saints getting 14 1/2 points they won the hedge bet and a piece of survivor. I imagine some took the cash line for a better payout on the Saints if they had won but these are savvy gamblers so I'm sure most split the hedge bet up. Derik also lets them hedge against the entry so they didn't need to come up with hundreds of thousands in cash to place the hedge bet(s) There are also other ways to hedge, Derik lets you sell a % of your entry ANY WEEK , many of these winners sold a % of the entry.

We noticed on our week long trip to Vegas we came home with more money then ever before. With everything being more expensive, food quality on strip food we noticed was way down. We use to gamble more. As it was due to reciprocity. Free night buffet that tasted great coupons so much value you just felt you owed it for all the deals to gamble more. Now we found ourselves eating more and gambling off the stip. in search of value but even more for a higher quality meal. Yes I’ve heard the steak houses are great. Sorry we like steak houses. However we will go to them close to home as they are just as good and half the price. So it’s no surprise to us that gambling revenue is down.

But yeah, don’t go any day during the main lunch or dinner hours unless you want to be standing outside for up to 40 minutes.

I know at Elara they have a daily a la carte housekeeping fee separate from the resort fee, and I just always figured others would get ideas from them and force you to pay extra for housekeeping if you want it. Given how greedy these major players so often are, I'm shocked that wasn't mentioned in MGM's press release.

@@VivaLasVegasX I feel at three-star resorts like Harrah's, Excalibur and STRAT: in fairness you shouldn't EXPECT housekeeping and just be grateful if it is provided anyway. Conversely in four and most certainly five-star resorts, however............I think it would be utter avarice to pay the existing room rates and resort fees we already pay AND pay a hypothetical ancillary housekeeping fee on top of all of that.

Fyi, people are drinking less alcohol overall. I had 2 mini shots of casa amigos tequila for new years eve. Younger gen are more healthy. I think the surgeon general warning labels on alcohol bottles doesnt help. Going to be interesting as people are changing. What does it mean for bars???? Interesting for sure.

A Bally's investment... Lol. Reminds me of a former friend who was a heavy gambler. He offered me a commodities "investment" with a 200% return over 11 months. He couldn't give me the name of the broker, the specific type of investment, or a written prospectus. Sure, sign me up. 😂😂😂

MGM is going to start charging for linens, key cards, closing the blinds, opening the blinds…. I am sure they will find a way to charge to adjust the thermostat at this point.

Pretty soon people will stop going to Vegas and will get tired of paying fees. We use to come down to watch the Nascar race 2 times a year and looking at the huge extra cost going to Vegas we will be going to other tracks instead

I do not go to hotels that have all those extra fee. The strip is dead to me. I will go to NY-NY just to play blackjack or craps, but that is it. I have been staying at downtown hotels the last 10 years with all of it being comped. 🎉 IMO vegas will be heading down hill soon once people realize the value is not there anymore. I like going to the shows at vegas but lately they are being over priced for a B rated entertainment. 😢 In addition, paying for parking to gamble at a casino to lose money is stupid. Bye bye strip, I will stay downtown.

It's an FTC rule. The total price, including all fees, must now be the most prominent price when showing costs.

Vegas used to be thee place to go for thrills and to chill out. The phrase "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" is no longer with all the influencers video taping other people into their videos. My husband and I were high rollers and no longer enjoyed our privacy being stripped from us. Vegas and the casinos lost us when they allowed filming.

Traditionally the end of Christmas season is January 6th, Little Christmas. This was the day when the three wise men found the baby Jesus and brought their gifts. So the next day is the earliest my family took down Christmas decorations.

Just to get Platinum status @200k tier credits is tough, so to make 1.5 million is mind boggling. 🤯 It seems Bally's doesn't have a union pension fund or junk bonds to finance their casino like in the old days. I guess CEO's and C-Suite executives didn't ask the question why someone might want to assassinate a corporate executive after what happened to the healthcare executive. Unadulterated greed on behalf of only the shareholders comes to mind (cough and say MGM!)
