    Howdy Vegas. Hope everyone had a enjoyable weekend. I did, if you think running a 1/2 marathon is enjoyable. If not, then my weekend sucked.

    I am going to have to watch it again tonight when I get home. I was fading last night after my race, so I know I missed some stuff.

    Re: ***VEGAS 2009! (May 8-9)***

    Hey guys, I need some advice / comments...I went to the Vegas shows before and didn't stay @ the MGM Grand.
    I was curious if it is worth the extra cost? I found a round trip plane ticket and 3 nights (Thurs, Fri & Sat) for $630.
    I was thinking about booking it but saw a couple other places in the $500 range...is the extra amount worth staying at the MGM?
    Thanks for your help!

    It depends how much your plane ticket and hotel are separately. How much are you paying for the hotel if you split it up? We booked our flights and hotel separately b/c it was cheaper. Sometimes it's cheaper to book it all together as a package. There are a lot of hotel deals going on right now. With promo code XBRD you can get a room at the Excalibur for about $180 for all 3 nights. That includes all fees and taxes. There's also a code for the Luxor (PZOO33) that can get you 3 nights for under $200 total. INB250 is the promo code for the MGM Grand. I think it still works. Not sure on the total for 3 nights there.

    Well I don't think I want to stay @ Excalibur...kinda for kids.
    Luxor would be alright.

    Looks like MGM Grand would be $332.45 for all 3 nights.
    My flight is $244.40 roundtrip.
    $576.45 total....saved me about 50 bucks.
    I am still debating on pulling the trigger though, think it will go down any?

    I think the rates will go down. The good thing about these promotion codes is that you can cancel them up until 48 before you arrive. So if a better offer comes up you can cancel your old reservation and book the lower rate. You know Wes? I think he's from Austin too.

    The rate for what? The plane ticket or MGM Grand?
    I was gonna jump on both and do what you said for the hotel...just cancel if something better pops up.
