As a 17 year old, I should be able to get into DEFCON alone correct? My grandmother is going to Vegas for the casinos, and she has hotel reservations for the Flamingo for the both of us.

This is covered in the FAQ:
FAQ = https://www.defcon.org/html/links/dc-faq/dc-faq.html

What is the age limit?

People have brought children to DEF CON - it is not recommended to do this unless you are going to constantly supervise them. It is generally an ‘adult’ atmosphere (language, booze, et cetera). If you've never been to DEF CON, you may want to refrain from bringing your children (unless they are demanding that you bring them). While there are no age limits, we have consistently cooperated with parents and/or private investigators who are looking for children that ‘ran away from home’ to go to DEF CON. You will have to be 18 to reserve a room.

There should be nobody at badge sales checking your age before selling you a badge.

Also covered in FAQ:
When you buy a badge from us (DEF CON) , they are for cash. No credit card, checks, travelers'' cheques, or cyptocurrencies.
If you trust someone else who buys badges with cash, and you pay them, that would be between you and them, but be sure the badge they are selling you matches the badge for this year's DEF CON and is not a counterfeit or for previous years, or for unrelated content.

Just because some locations have a pool on the roof does not mean there is always pool on the roof.
