I'll be there in March, got a free weekend at Treasure island in the middle March... More likely Conference Tournament, What day does the first round start?

Hey, onner, it's funny you posted this... I was just trying to book something for March 25-29. I can get two comp nights at Mandalay Bay but the rates for the other three nights are higher than I want! I'm gonna try to negotiate them down.

If I didn't mind going a couple weeks later, I could get two comp nights plus three nights at $99, but I want to go for March Madness!!!!

Hope I can do it... trying to get name of a host.

I bet you're not trying hard enough... What is too expensive? Give it the ole' college try, Onner. Call around, talk to VIP, tell 'em you're a big-time gambler.

March 18 is day 1

Capybara · 02-05-10, 06:09 PM

Booked it! Gonna be at THEHotel at Mandalay Bay in a suite for five nights! Two nights comped, one at $179 and two at $99, not bad! Can't wait!

Capybara · 02-06-10, 02:57 AM

Rooms are cheap everywhere all month. Vegas is practically giving away rooms right now, in fact, the Harrah's group is giving away 2 nights FREE to player's card members every month. I'm going second week in March gratis.

bet kansas state boys they will make a legit run while only being small favorites

I am going to Vegas for the first two rounds, March 18-21.

Surprised you can't go because of hotels. I am getting nearly every night comped. The only nights I have to pay for are Friday and Saturday.

Let me know if you wind up going, I'd like to meet up with SBR folks.

Going to try- the first MM in Vegas-Alligent Air has 9.99 flights from Stockton , Ca. to Vegas quite often over internet-

Im going for the 1st round... March 17-22, staying at Flamingo. Cost me $200 total for 5 nights with my players card

Capybara · 02-12-10, 01:18 AM

As I said, I'm going to be there for the regionals, which take place March 25-28. 16 to 8 and 8 to 4. Can't wait!

5 nights at a Mandalay suite, two comped and three at casino rate. Total is only 350 to split with my friend!

Premium nights will cost you, but they could probably comp the weekdays. Some off the strip casinos offer rooms for as low as 20 bucks a night with players card. It never hurts to call and try to deal with them. Hell they will probably throw in some free play money on your players card and food comps.
