Not yet mate, Was going too when Steve Wynn had it as my Mrs wanted too & did steal all the top class crockery from room service at his other Hotels & they recken the towels were so fluffy you could'nt get the suitcase lid down in the Bellagio Without doubt it's a top joint, always stayed at Treasure Island/Mirage or Caesars in the 90's. But i want take her anymore so i like hanging in or near the MGM. NYNY this time, never tried it, as long as it's secure & clean & when yer think about it we only spend about 4 hours a day in our room. I stayed at the Mirage for the Hatton/Pac fight, mistake really considering the ****in heat & walking to & back pissed as a rat to the Mirage from the MGM most nights was a struggle.
Thats a good deal. what hotel? A aquantince of mine has ****ed up big time, he let his idiot missis get the tickets & the dopy ***** has bought them through a ticket agency who used MGM in it's keywords, paid £3,000 for 2 x level 2 tickets:-( un ****in believable, i've told him to cancel it with his mastercard 9if he can)...........jeezusatsch
not direct flights:--(its with BA tho The Luxor:good are the tickets on sale then, u going pac fight or marquez morales. atschatschatsch hopefully u can cancel them then mate otherwise thats devastating
All done, Vegas here I come :happy:happy:happy Had a proper scare getting the tickets, as soon as I hit refresh and they went on sale, I jumped on, no tickets available in my price range :admin So I went back, in a panic, spelt the ****ing security words wrong about five times :adminBUT managed to get some that some poor **** let go Got some $300 ones, quite far back but **** it, MANNY PACQUIAO, SHANE MOSLEY, LAS VEGAS WHO GIVES A ****!!!!!??? :arran :happy:happy Sorted the flights and hotel, BILL'S GAMBLING HALL :rofl
Just bought my Pac ticket, $1000 / Section 3, Row N, seat 11. None of the middle sections will be on sale as these will go to the hotels & scalpers. Yeh i told this feller to contact his bank or Visa & put a block on the transaction stating that this agency were passing themseleves off as MGM GRAND/MGM GRAND GARDEN ARENA, obvious keywords too use & the dopy cow just pressed the link & ends up on a scalpers site. Is it true that the Luxor has had a serious BED BUG infestation:scaredas:
Luxor is getting some really wank reviews on trip advisor. Bill's Gambling Hall on the other hand has immense reviews
blurp hopefully tickets for marquez morales wont be to expensive. ive heard the luxor is pretty decent bills gambling joint is more of a crack den down and out type of place have fun:good
**** it. I don't plan to spend much time in there anyway. Gonna be out getting my willy up some *****'s bum.
I'm jealous lads, I've been a few times, most recently for Pac v Cotto. It was superb. Just found a post I made at the time elsewhere which brings back memories: Hello all, I thought Id share some observations from around the Pac-Cotto fight in Vegas a couple of weeks ago. As part of the deal to base our two week holiday around a big fight (again) I had to take my missus to Hawaii after the fight so Ive only just arrived back. Jim Watt was on the same BA flight from London as us on the Thursday afternoon. He is (as Ive previously read but not really believed) remarkably engaging, friendly and charismatic. To a light hearted remark that Haye won the fight easy: Hey Im happy he won. And Sky are bloody delighted. On the Friday morning we walked to the MGM to sample the atmosphere and double check when the weigh in was to take place. Arriving at the Grand Garden arena at 11am, a handful of fans of both fighters were already in line. I asked an official when it was due to kick off, to which he replied 3pm, and suggested that to arrive earlier than 2.30 would be a waste of time. This was music to my girlfriends ears so we went off to grab some lunch and some other stuff. On arriving back at 2.10 I was infuriatingly told the weigh in was packed out and that the fire Marshall had ordered no more fans be let in. Instead I had to watch it on the big screens of the huge sports book area. It probably sounds naff but even there the atmosphere was tremendous, with lots of cheering on both sides. I couldnt wait for the fight. I was dragged around the Caesars Palace mall and found myself in Niketown. Half the effing shop was full of Pacman merchandise! I ended up buying 5 Manny T shirts (Pacman knows), partly because at US$28 they were decent value, partly because I realised Id packed too little stuff and I suppose they make decent work out stuff. The shop assistant asked if I was attending the fight then suggested I was legit given how much Manny stuff I had just bought! Ugh! On the Friday night wed gone to see a show at the MGM and just passed by the Garden arena again. It was empty except for two middle aged women taking photos of each other with their fight tickets on the stairs. We made some small talk and one of the women claimed that Manny had given them their 4 tickets. I didnt really believe them until she showed me photos of Manny sitting in a chair underneath one of these girls. Turns out she cuts Mannys hair back in the Philippines. They both said Manny was an absolute diamond of a man. At this stage my girlfriend hadnt decided who to root for but this put her firmly in Team Pacman. Despite the dire undercard, the atmosphere was incredible. It wasnt until it became obvious (maybe round 6/7) that Manny was too strong that the tense atmosphere was quashed as the Puerto Rican fans quietened down. I couldnt believe what a warrior Pac is, just pure seek and destory. We were in pretty good seats as it was but as the fight finished I sneaked right up to ringside. One of Mannys entourage allowed me and a couple of other fans to hold and take a photo with one of his Ring belts. It was the 130lb belt he won from JM Marquez. In fact it still had Marquezs name on it. Maybe that is how it works.
