    The Flamingo's location is the selling point. You're right in the middle of everything else, and it's easy to get to the 'best whatever' in a few minutes walk. You're never in your room in Vegas unless it's to SSSS (sleepshitshowershave).

    It's $36 because there are a billion hotel rooms in Vegas, and during non-peak times, they've got to really drop the price to get folks in the door.

    I see how so many off strip places offer free shuttles numerous times per day tp the strip which is perfect

    Last time I was there way too many trannies on strip making plays for me by Caesars

    Off strip none of that, I am approached by Wall Street guys looking to talk about stocks and how to get to the Grand Canyon

    No way i would pay an xtra $100 to "UPgrade" (not even sure it's an UPgrade) from Flamingo to the Trop....no way. The Flamingo is a shithole but it's centrally located & Bally's, Bills, Bellagio, Ceaser's, Harrah's, Imperial Palace & Mirage are have books & within minutes walking distace of Flamingo.....$39 is a steal~

    Mancrustyme is just still simmering mad after his wife walked into their bedroom last month to find him banging another dude and exposed him as being a homo

    Mancrustyme is by far one of the most hated posters on the board...he should just retreat into gayland and stop posting here he should be perma banned

    Flamingo is solid and I will be there tomorrow night. They are building a Carlos and Charlies right beside the 'book so there is a lot of construction and most of the seats (and Keno area) are gone. The pool is also open but the weekend is supposed to be cold.

    March Madness always drives the price of rooms wayyy up. Even IP isn't cheap. Thank goodness for comps.

    Small sports books are always crap, with the exception of PH, I rather enjoy theirs. Small, very small actually, but it's located next to a bar and a Pinks, so that gets my personal rating of it a big jump.

    I stay on the strip cause I get free rooms.

    A very under rated place off the strip is GOLD COAST.
    Next to rio and across from palms.

    Free shuttles to strip, good sportsbook. Good place
