Anyone have suggestions on hotels? I know there are only about 300 of them, but where are people staying? I can't wait to see what kind of trinket I get!

I'm staying at Harrah's.  I was looking for a place on the east side of the strip. There is a tram that runs behind these hotels directly to the convention center.  I made the mistake of staying at the bellagio back in the day.  20 minutes to get a cab at the hotel or a 2 mile walk to the tram station.  I didn't want to rent a car. I'd imagine it's a nightmare to park, but I'm no expert on Vegas.

I'm staying at the Riviera. Just a short walk from the convention center.

It really doesn't matter where you stay in Vegas. I have been there many times (mostly for business) and every time we spent very little time in the room.

Is it any reflection on my behavior that I've been to Vegas 4 times and I think I stayed at the Alladin one of those times and I really can't remember the other 3 I stayed at?  I want to say Monte Carlo and maybe Caesars but I honestly can't piece it all together.  I love the smell outside the casinos on the old strip and finding some corner to play some video poker and win some of my money back that I p'd away.

Believe it or not, it's still up in the air.  What will probably happen is I get the ok on Wed or Thurs and catch a flight out whenever I can, stay 24 hours or so and haul ass back.  If I make it, I plan on walking the floor with Joe Clarke for as long as I can, until he gets tired of me then I'm gonna go tear crap up at the M&R booth until they kick me out, then...who knows, I'm dreaming right now.
