    Stores all close at midnight now just about every 24 hr Walgreens and Walmart have changed up. 24 hr pharmacies scarce

    Just like any other city now
    Where the hell are you looking when you come here 😂😂😂

    24 hour access
    No last call for alcohol
    Decent weather
    Whatever I want, I can get here.
    Excellent Veterans Medical accessibility

    One of the best decisions I ever made was moving here. Almost 5 years now.
    Thanks for the point ans.

    Restaurants bars, and Albertsons in my neighborhood 24 hours.
    Banks open later(7p.m.) and on Sundays.
    Their is just more shit to do here.
    Sportsbooks open till at least the last event is done. Apps are 24/7. Some books on the strip will have a guy you can buy tickets from at 3 a.m.
    If you have a problem with Vegas, it's probably because something is wrong with you.

    For example: JJGold, we all know he's a degenerate that lacks self control. When he lived out here, he lived in ratchet infested neighborhood and couldn't control his gambling, and/or keep a job. Tha means something is wrong with him.
    Sorry I got to rip on a guy I actually like. But I fell like I got to correct these 'glass half empty' opinions.

    Their are bad things, but not unlike any other city.
    Schools under-funded
    Too many Californians because that state is too expensive to live for most.
    Too few police
    Corrupt politicians
    Blah blah blah. Nothing unusual that you don't see from a big city.

    For the guys that live in Vegas - do you actually go to the sportsbook or do you do everything with phone accounts and apps on your phones/tablets?

    Silver Legacy, Peppermill, Eldordado should all have books, they used to, but I haven't been to Reno proper in like 5 years.

    I could do both.
    Me, just easier to watch a million games at once than do it at home.
    I eat out at the restaurants at the casinos a lot.Acquired so many players points, I will never pay for a buffet for the rest of my life.
    Stations have u.s.b. ports to charge electronics in the sportsbooks. They don't bug me for loitering. I don't pay for cable, or sports packages, anymore.
    However, I am never on the strip, or downtown. Accessibility is just a thorough pain in the ass, unless if I worked there. Too congested

    Where the hell are you looking

    Outside of the strip it's a ghost town everywhere after 9pm

    They just had write up recently in paper how it's not 24 hr city anymore

    If you want to sit at gas station and play penny slots all night then I guess you could call it that

    I live 5 hours away from Vegas by car..

    I say why go to Vegas, get drunk, gamble and waste your cash when you can waste it online at home with the many internet sportsbooks instead? ...

    Vegas has become obsolete.. Home is where the heart is at...

    This year, at least 11 grocers have stopped 24-hour service. The valley may continue to see cuts.
    Without the sales volume to justify 24 hours, Smith’s has decided over the past six to eight weeks to shorten hours at four former 24-hour stores, spokeswoman Aubriana Martindale said.
    This isn't just happening in Vegas, but wow, surprised it's happening in Vegas.

    Volume or not, it used to be worth it to stay open.

    Yes. Their are still some that are open 24/7
    Its really not that big of a deal.
    If you have a car, or accessibility to Uber/Lyft, you can still buy diapers at 2 a.m.

    The casinos; if you use the apps and beat them, you'll be booted pretty quick.

    Fuk the apps.

    Get a crew together and slam several books at once if you need to really get down some kind of limit numbers or just have one pull the trigger at the house with the good line.

    They won't even notice you.

    I miss the old days, just before the internet craze.

    Fair enough.

    William Hill may be a good place to hang out, have different guys hit the lines if they lower you.

    I live in Cali - my parents retired in Vegas, so I'm up there 6-10 times a year. They always go to Sam's Town because they live the closest to that and they cater to the locals.
    I don't like that the "Big" casinos like Caesars started charging like $12 to just FU##ING park?!?!?! WTF?!?!?
    AND they have little "indicator lights" at the bar, so if you sit down to play some video poker or whatever, you have to play a certain amount before you get your "free" S#!T well drink.....

    F##K THAT!!! - - Go off strip/downtown Fremont/station casinos and watch the bands, gamble/drink/eat to your heart's content, be mesmerized by the 19 year old "students" dancing on the tables as you lose your last $100 at craps, watch a free comedy show at the 4 Queens, and then go up to your $19 room at the Plaza, vomit, and do it all again the next day.....

    If you beat them, yes they will. Apps are like players' cards; their primary purpose isn't to give you rewards, it's to track you.

    I'm with you. Downtown is great. And the people who go there seem a lot more friendly too.
