    No such thing

    How about at least 10 on strip and 10 off strip

    Any big name hotel has a great sportsbook

    Best of luck Son

    if you are talking just the comfort of watching the games

    1-bellagio/get there real early if u want a seat

    2-wynn/no chance to get a seat without staying there

    As a local, I'd rather watch a game in a back alley in the local crack houses than at the bellagio or Caesars books. I hate those two books with a passion don't get what people see in them

    My faves depend on what I want. If I want to relax and have a peaceful time I go to luxor or Mandalay bay. If I want to watch games with others and have the excitement of watching a big game with a crowd it's MGM. If I am playing a lot of games it's LVH because it has goods lines and lots of screens. And the hard rock or palms are books I go to that I consider all purpose books, good all around books. And treasure island carries wnba games so I go there to watch wnba

    bellagio - they don't screw around asking you for free drink coupons, high class well run book

    paris - has nice big cold glasses of modelo on tap - they are 2nd on my list for that reason and the nice mural of horses

    luxor - classy and friendly employees from my experience, a simple "good luck my friend" with a smile can make your book good

    I enjoyed Mandalay Bay's sportsbook back in Feb...didn't really care for the casino.

    Like those new Will Hill betting stations, at the smaller casinos. More betting options than other books. _2.5 runlines for MLB, and They book all 11 undercards on UFC fights...

    I was gonna say GVR & Red Rock Casino.

    Although I've never watched a game there, I like the way South Point is set up. The Sports Book in one area and the Race Book in another. (they are close to each other if you're betting both)

    The Mirage is the way to go. Sportsbook is right off the strip, you dont have to walk a mile from the blvd to the book. Waitresses come often to serve you when watching the game. No charge for beers. Poker room right next to it if you wanna play a lil cards

    Mirage has a nice layout, but my problem is that the air conditioner in there is always like 40 degrees so I freeze

    Last time I was there I had to leave and walk over to Treasure Island I was so cold

    yeah the Mirage is pretty sweet as well. NYNY is just a glorified bar and grill.
