    Many years ago, I too went broke in Las Vegas. I slept on the pool lounge chairs at the old Aladin for a week before getting 86'd.....funny now, but sure wasn't then! Good luck jj, u wouldn't think it but Vegas is a Bad place to be BROKE.

    I would go to super busy buffets at dinner time, the kind with long lines at every station, I would fill my plate up and eat while standing in the next line..... It was Misery

    Being broke in Vegas today is a Nightmare, hard core druggies, pan handlers, there is a entire community of homeless living Under the strip, back in the day, it was more classy..... Maybe that's the wrong word.

    If you hang around the old section near the highway most of the sterno bums head for the Plasma Bank near the 7-11...then they take their cash for their bottle of Maddog and a few bucks to try and double on the Pass Line for $1 Craps

    After a looooong day of hustling, if I had less than ten dollars, I'd put in a late straight bet...... Win and I sleep, lose and I Don't.....

    I didn't have anywhere to go and back in the day, the gold Coast had movies that ran until like 2am..... It was easy to sneak in after midnight or so. I would sleep a little, one night the girl from the movie booth woke me and asked me if I was OK? We've been together since, almost 20 years!
