  • To those who went last year, staff too, how much did you pay beginning to end? Feel free to pm me if you don't want to say publicly.

    Cost of any Vegas trip depends on many factors. Flight, where you want to stay, where you want eat, how much you gamble, etc.

    Which is why I was curious how much most of you spent. Safe to assume you all did a fair amount together as far as casinos, eating, etc?

    We only did one dinner together. And the staff was generous enough to pay for me and Oaken.

    I assume we all spent a wide range, especially since Noah really loves his hookers and blow.

    Every one in the room is staring at me because I bust out laughing at this.

    Also laughed at JC going 3rd person.

  • I just got back from Vegas two weeks ago and here's my breakdown for me.

    179 flight round trip from Austin, 190 with tax (booked the flight in early November, left mid-december)

    200 (my share) for staying at Treasure Island with two other people, we had two rooms, connecting cuz we all wanted our own beds. Probably could have gotten a suite with a couch and two beds cheaper. Stayed 5 days 4 Nights

    $40 to eat at the Wynn, $36 to eat at the Bellagio, almost 40 bucks between three cab rides and tips (walked up and down the strip a lot). prolly like 60 on food everywhere else (dinner and breakfast at a bar and grill inside TI and IN-n-Out burger)

    lost only like 70 bucks gambling, but really only played slots cuz I was bored during the day and blackjack and video poker at night.

  • If you are planning a Vegas trip, Halloween weekend is by far the best weekend to go. Either way, a Vegas trip is only truly great when you go during football season, period.

  • You can actually do Vegas pretty cheap if you don't eat at the buffets and gamble a lot, but after that, whats there to do haha.

    Not really any time frame. I just wanted to give everyone plenty of time to make arrangements.

    What happens in Vegas is supposed to stay in Vegas devidee! You just lost my vote for poster of the year.

    I will be there again and will see what other guys are down (sounds like JC is in) ... also plan on getting shirts for you to take home (not where while we're there, that's stupid) marking the occasion.

  • I need to see more upvotes in this thread before I can commit more to it.

    I was thinking maybe helping some award winners with a small stipend to go towards their trip, or something.

    I know you meant to the OP so the thread would show some high level of interest but I just gave all my votes away anyways, don't know if it helps.

  • I've donated upvotes for the cause as well. I'm interested, but I have some other trips and vacations that could possibly happen around that time of year.
