    I buy the same brand and yeah I think it’s more like $7 less but it’s noticeable.

    “Kids want to get high and go hiking instead of gambling”

    that’s what a old timer explained to me my last bachelor party to Vegas. You can sports gamble anywhere nowadays

    You can online gamble anywhere, Vegas needs to provide something different, now they are just a bloated over expensive location.

    Nothing exciting to do there, TBH.....and way to expensive for what you get.

    Vegas has spent the past couple of decades trying to "provide something different" other than gambling. It sure worked for a while, I'm not sure what they can pivot to next.

    Man there’s lots of people who don’t go to Vegas at all yapping about it
    Was there for the 4th of July , plenty of people. Yes during the week it’s going to be slow for less international visitors but there’s still plenty of international visitors for big events

    If people don’t want to pay for strip prices they can find good deals off strip or downtown.

    the palms is legit nice, great casino, pool and restaurants
