I have read many posts on several websites regarding Las Vegas that really ring a bell. The posts lament the fact the Vegas has gone the way of night clubs, restaurants, and shows as there main events. No longer are there cheap meals, and hotel rooms for the average Joe; the customers that made LV what it used to be. The slots are now so tight they squeak; the room rates are more than they are worth; the service is almost non-existent. We have visited Vegas for years but our last trip was Aug 07 and we do not intend to come back anytime soon. You would think these, so-called educated CEOs would understand that their biggest problem is not the economy as much as it is the fact the average person knows he's getting ripped off and is not gambling as much We expect to lose our money on the slots, but not being able to play for any length of time on your money is outrages. The sucking sound of the money leaving your pocket is almost audible. We decided to stay home this year since some of our friends who just returned from a visit stated is even worst this year. We are from Atlanta, GA and have several casinos that are very very nice in Mississippi that we intend to visit. We are sad about Vegas because we really did enjoy our prior visits, but screw me one shame on you screw me twice, shame on me. Oh, I have a new Vegas Slogan for you CEOs: We're Vegas and You're Not. That says it all.
