GOING TO VEGAS IN A WEEK VOL: Help me with my experience...

Came back from my bachelor party in one piece with no records, criminal or medical! :smokin

Got in early Friday morning, first things first was to fill the tub with the weekend's necessities:

700


5 Costco sized Jamesons, 1 Kirkland vodka, brew, coconut water, miscellaneous chasers and waters.

At night, we were about 20 deep, had a table and 7 bottles at Marquee in the hiphop room. Messed with Ms. Ringwald 3 times that night.

Saturday, used handshakes to get into Tao. Lightweight hard to get in since Miguel was there, but got all of us in nonetheless. Saw Ms. Ringwald a couple more times that night. After Tao, we hit up Rhino. Wow, bruhs. Wow. :pimp: :smh: 8) A few more visits with oh girl, and boom we dont get home until about 8:30am.

Sunday was cool. Handshakes at Lavo got us in, Psy was there, which was kinda ehh so we cut and went to XS night swim. Ms. Ringwald kept showing up so messed with her some more. Monday recovery mode.

My Bachelor party was a success. Now I'm at work wishing I can go back again.
yal shower bruh?
 
I'm the only dude who goes to Vegas to gamble and play poker it seems like :lol:

I mean, I went insane on the alcohol both trips I've made, but not in the clubs etc
 
I thought Ms Ringwald was a white girl

Took me a few minutes to figure it out. :lol:


yal shower bruh?

Not sure if serious.

but most casino/hotels have showers and tubs.


Kirkland vodka?

What's wrong with a $20 bottle of Grey Goose?

wow. I thought I was the only one. :lol:
been there/done that w/ the club scene. there's so many other ways I'd rather use money than just to dump it all into a club.


what's your favorite poker room EBW?

I used to frequent Caesars and Paris, when they still had a room. now i'm primarily at MGM, Venetian or Flamingo. really depends on where i'm staying.
 
Looking at a trip in July the weekend of the 12th

What I have in mind

Friday night 1 Oak
Saturday Marquee (Day Club)
Saturday night - TBD (maybe Tao or Hakkasan)



Lodging thinking MGM Grand or something in that price range.

A group of us will be out there that weekend. Youngdoc, Mr. Jordan and Dmbrhs will all be out there for at least one day so if u wanna meet up and pitch for bottles at Tao Sat. night ur more than welcome. BTW, that trip is going to be dirty lol. Staying at Palazzo, Tao Beach Sat., Tao Sat night., EBC Sun., XS or Lavo Sun. night...wanna do the 2 Goose and 2 Moets at XS (Looking at u Dmbrhs o_O)

/B]


^Didn't mean to quote last part, sitting in airport on mobile lol.


word. what's the protocol? i'm assuming you need to give them a call beforehand and not just walk up to the front of the line with everybody watching :lol:

I have never paid for for cover when doing a handshake including on holiday weekends. Hit up host 1ish that day and tell him what u have in terms of ppl and how much u can throw him. Has always worked for me at 20 a person.

Im helping organize a bachelor party for my group of friends and i.
Im a vegas novice, been a few times but never done anything crazy and havent been to the newer clubs like Marquee and such.
Ive def never organized anything.

I have a few questions, would someone very knowledgable about Vegas be able to help a dude out and answer a few questions i have through PM?
Or if anyone would be kind to help here i'd really appreciate it.

Heres the situation:

12 guys.
We're staying 1 block off the strip, Tuscany Inn. (suites, price friendly for the poor dudes).
We don't want to deal with 2 hour lines trying to rely on 'handshaking' and getting rejected.
I want us to have a for sure entrance into a great club like Marquee or XS or Lavo or 1OAK on the Saturday night. (The friday they wanna do other bachelor type ****).

June 22nd is the night. How can i go about getting us 12 guys into one of those clubs saturday night?
WHats the best route? Can any specific passes for marquee be bought in advance? (sorry i know its a dumb question but i have to explore all options)
What would you guys recommend because most of these guys have never done vegas so its mostly up to me :rolleyes
 
3rd recommendation - with 12 dudes get a table. If you can't afford it at night daylife is usually cheaper. FWIW Lavo and 1OAK will have better deals than Marquee or XS

Just gamble and strip club at night if you can't afford a table. General admission with 12 dudes is no way to do a bachelor party.
 
1st recommendation: don't go with broke dudes to Vegas
2nd recommendation: stay at a hotel on the strip

Trust me, i dont want to go with the broke dudes but they are the bachelors cousins :lol:
and i wish, but like i said they wanted that.

Appreciate it. Lavo and 1OAK deals can be found where? By contacting the clubs in advance?
Would I be able to talk to a bouncer/host or someone in advance about getting us ahead in line or getting us in period?

And if we get a table, would they allow 12 guys to one table? Or would we have to buy more than 1?
Also, how would we go about getting the best deals?

(Sorry i told you i had a lot of questions :wow: )

Being 12 dudes, you're going to have to pay premium price everywhere. And since you're going with broke people, that may be a problem. You guys are gonna end up at Fat Tuesday cuz it's free :lol:

But I would get a budget from every guy and then go from there. If dudes are really broke, they may not even be able to afford the club/tables. You don't want your group spilt in half, some doing this, some doing that because some guys are willing to pay for things while others aren't. Also, it's a bachelor party so yo wanna show your buddy a hell of a time. Do you really wanna go to Vegas to just end up at some wack *** bar in a cheap hotel just because the have $3 beers.

You want it to be something your boy is gonna remember for ever (in a good way) and have stories for years with all 12 of you guys

I agree with you. Completely.
I want the best experience for my boy and for myself.
So just forget the broke part, i may even cover a few of my homies if they need me. I want the best time, not some cheap *** weekend. :lol:

So assuming we're all NORMAL people with NORMAL vegas budgets, can you give advice for that?
I'm sure people will be able to save and budget properly if they know how much they are expected to spend.
But i wanna organize things and get people the right info so they can save and hand me over the money in advance, i wanna make things go smoothly.

So if i can just get some ideas, some phone numbers, some websites, some passes, some price estimates it would be greatly appreciated.

If you were me, and you had a regular budget, what would you do for your boy in this situation?
We're not picky on the clubs, but we dont wanna end up going to a ghost town low end one.
Any of the top 5 clubs would be fine with us, and a table is an option...
I just wanna know how much we can get one for if we choose so and where to go about it.

And any daytime activities would be greatly appreciated too. Should we buy presale tix for marquee pool?
Someone mentioned the Night Swim at XS, maybe that would be something fun to do on the friday night if the fellas cant afford tables both nights.
More info on that would be great too.

Thanks in advance bros. :D

REPS will be given for any response and any help, all help is very appreciated!

I mentioned Nightswim but that's only Sunday nights at XS as it is their industry night.

If u have the budget go bottle service at a Tier 2. Honestly nothing wrong with that at all. If u need help planning, I'm ur man.

If u flat out can't, break down into 2 groups of 6 and handshake or presale for any club. I can help u with that as well.

I was just out there this past weekend with 11 guys total in our group and the only option is to get a vip/bottle service. It just isn't worth waiting in GA with that many heads.
 
What's your budget/buddy's budget? There isn't a "normal" Vegas budget. I usually have a lower budget because I'm from so cal and i go often (8 times last year, 3 times already this year). Some people go once a year and blow a **** load of money, since that's gonna be their only trip.

Before you do ANY legwork, I would honestly get everybody's budget and what they expect. Some guys may be married and not give a **** about a club, and definitely aren't dropping anything more than $50 for a club. It may only be 4 of you guys hyped to go clubbing while the rest are Debbie downers just messing up the night. Most guys will say "I'm down for anything," but then once they hear the price, they start back pedaling.

If I was in your shoes, I would def get a table Saturday night. Pools are a but bigger and you'll have more space to lounge around without having to get a table.

Not sure on prices, but for a tier 2 on Saturday I think you'll be able to get everybody in on 3 bottles. I say anywhere between $1500-2000 after taxes/gratuity for 3 bottles

Damn, you guys making me realize that 12 dudes wont be easy to get into the clubs without a table.
So a table is high priority.

Ecook, appreciate your response bro. Im about to PM you with some questions.

I was excited about NightSwim until i realized it was only on sundays. Anything else like that for the friday night? It would be perfect to do a night pool party on friday, because some of the dudes have strip club planned for friday night but nothing before it.
I dont wanna spend our friday night wondering aroudn casinos until its strip club time.
Any fun Non-Club activity for a friday night, like a pool party, would be great info. :nerd:

I'll be honest, a third of these dudes dont give a **** about the club. But they are willing to go and chip in because of the bachelor.
Trust me, ima get the cheap *** dudes to chip in. If theyre not, they can go back to the damn hotel room for all i care.
Appreciate the advice tho, ill try to check on everyones budgets.

A Tier 2 club would be perfect with the budget im thinking of off the top of my head.
Which ones are Tier 2? Pure? Jet?
1500 after taxes/tip for 3 bottles seems very worth the price, especially knowing that our 12 dudes wont look like idiots waiting in line tryna beg our way in :smh:

Who should i talk to about getting us a table? Its a month from now (June 22), so would it be too early to try and lock it down? does early reservation get a better price?
 
I've been to Vegas with people who are "down for a table," but once it gets down to it, they back pedal and find excuses because they don't wanna pay. I've also seen 2-3 people flake last minute and it can majorly affect how much everybody has to chip in.

Go on jack-Colton.com and email some hosts directly. Find out price AFTER tax/gratuity, table location, what type of alcohol etc
 
if you guys are on a low budget you can just get presale tickets at a big club (marquee, hakkasan, xs) and split your group up into 3 groups. go in with 4 heads at a time. you can even handshake the bouncer and just be like "80 bucks for 4 of us to skip the line" then just rinse and repeat.

but if you could get 3-4 bottles (3-4 people per bottle) at ~$1500-2000 total, thats a good deal too.

edit* just read all your other questions.

you sound like me tryna set up a vegas trip with my boys. im the type that wants to get everything sorted out before we get there because i know my friends can be indecisive and cheap as ****. i feel your pain :lol:

but definetely try to get a budget from them. i only go to vegas maybe twice a year, and dont gamble much, but i can easily go through $500 on just going out for 2 nights. (but ive never really gotten tables either so that price point can change)
