Stuff you are planning to do in Vegas before or after DC15...

Re: Stuff you are planning to do in Vegas before or after DC15...

As it turns out, I will be staying Sunday, and will be going to see Penn and Teller.

Once I got my tickets, I wondered where I was sitting. None of the places where I ordered tickets provided specific seat locations. The best they could do was say "amperstand" seating or not, and show a shaded space in the front left of center, center and right of center as one shade.

Turns out that there is a seating chart for the Rio on their own website (duh. I feel smart!):
http://www.pennandteller.com/03/seatingchart.html

When you check your tickets, I think you can find out where your seat is located:
Row: A,B,C,D... These refer to horizontal rows on that map.
Seat: If only 1, I think it may list just one number, if quantity is greater than one, you may have a range.
Section: 1&, 2&, 3& (front rows), or 1,2,3 (behind front rows), or 4, 5, 6 back.
It would be good for you to find out if you are front center (A6, Section 2&) or elsewhere.

If you are in my seat when I arrive, I will tell on you, and then you'll be sorry.

Where are you sitting? We are in 1 and 2 in the front row as far as I know.

Awesome! Where in the front? I'll have to look for you so I can wave and say hi. :)

I'm thinking about catching the Vegas Mob Tour on Sunday. It starts at 9:30pm from the Greek Isles (close to the Riviera). and runs about 2.5 hours.

If anyone else is interested, let's get a group together.

If anyone is going to the 9 PM showing of Penn and Teller on Sunday I'll be there.

Dead Addict just surprised me with tickets. We are 1st row, front and center! I guess he either bought them yesterday or today.

I'll be getting in Tuesday with a few other people, Tues night were considering hitting one of those discount ticket booths on the strip and maybe seeing a show tues night and another wed night.. If anyone is interested send a message over, and maybe a group of us can get together for a show. I really haven't seen much as far as Vegas shows.

Re: Stuff you are planning to do in Vegas before or after DC15...

heh, maybe i'm very different than the average breed of cat, but i was overwhelmingly unimpressed with vegas when i did the tourist thing. I think it was my second time out there, DC9, and a bunch of us went up and saw the strip, walked through some casinos, and ate a meal at some expensive joint. (it was a fake "bistro" type of affair inside this huge mall/walkway deal that was entirely indoors. don't get me wrong, it was neat and all... but after that one time seeing things there i was totally done with the strip and all that nonsense and have stuck almost exclusively to the con hotel every year since, except for sushi night and the bbq and the gun ranges)

I don't think that it is so much that you are different than the average breed of cat, as much as how easily amused I am.

I am the type of person that could be entertained for hours just skipping down the Las Vegas strip yelling, Look at me, I am a tourist!' while taking pictures the entire way.

I thought about skydiving in and landing at the TBBQ or the Riviera pool. It's been done, hasn't it?

Only if you wear a sequined jumpsuit and pompadour wig.

I happy to say I've got my jump booked for before the Toxic BBQ! Death from above!

Does anyone know of any insurance for sky diving? I'm assuming if I shatter my leg I'll have to pay big bucks in the US.

lol, I never really thought about that.
I'm sure you'll have to fill out a disclaimer saying you chose to take the drop and break your legs.
But they may pay for it for you, being from out of the country and all....and not wanting to deal with it ;p


When is yours booked, you book online?

I plan to jump before the toxic BBQ as well, I just havn't reserved yet.
