Yuck. When I travel to new cities,I try to avoid chains if at all possible since I could eat that anywhere and it'd be pretty much the same. There's gotta be a better option than Denny's.

They asked for a good place to have drunken pan cakes after the show and that's what Denny's is, plus it's on the strip right across from where a lot of people are staying and the show. Of course there are far better options for breakfast, but my suggestion was the answer to the question that was asked.

Dude you were gonna get blowback no matter what you said :)

dennys does suck but it is probably the best and maybe only option for the situation.

if Barbary Coast was still around we could all go get a stack of toast :)

There is a new 24 hour Buffalo Wild Wings on the strip now.   Down by Walgreens and Fat Burger.   Over 30 beers on tap etc....FYI

I booked that place originally and thought about changing it after seeing some bad reviews. So I called Vegas.com and the rep was surprised I even booked it in the first place. I guess it has a real bad rep but who knows

No idea...all you can do is go over to arena and check it out and see for yourself.  It's not like you have any other choice with your flight arriving.  So, it's really out of your control.  I'd say go check it out when you get settled and have fun.

No, I just have regular GA. I originally just had nosebleed seats, but I was able to get a GA yesterday. I won't be getting to Vegas until 1pm. I figure by the time I check in and get to the arena, it will easily be 2-2:30. Think I'll still have a chance at that time?

Dumb blonde question alert - are you saying you're getting to the arena at 1pm in the afternoon to queue for the evening show to get to the front of the pit?!

This is pretty much why I'm not bothered about being in the pit. Get to the venue 12 hours early to get on the barrier only to need a piss ten minutes before the show starts and it's all wasted. Personally I'd rather enjoy the day at the pool, grab a few drinks and some good food then rock up at the venue half an hour before showtime and comfortably take my seat without all the hassle.

I'm not...I have a seat, but that dude was asking how early he should get in line to get front row and my answer was basically meant to say if you want to be guaranteed front row, then you should be the first line as there are some who have early entry GA.  It should be common sense really.

Us Americans are crazy, we line up for days to get $200 off a big screen TV and other crazy things on Black Friday.

That actually made me LOL.

Ok - I wasn't expecting people to be doing that. That sounds crazy to me - you'll still get in the area if you get there at a normal time and there are only a certain amount of people let in, so it's not like a big stadium where you're standing at the back of 10,000 people. But I take my non-existent hat off to anyone doing it :)

Exactly.  I'm perfectly fine being on the outskirts of the GA section (I actually prefer it, as it makes it easier to make a beer run or bathroom break :lol:)....and that's where I'll be on night 2....even the back of the GA section is still closer than anywhere else in the arena.:)

I did it, my gf and I were in line and the people in front of us realized they were going to be seated in the very front. They turned and asked if we would take their place. We did and WOW what a rush. Scary as hell, I'm glad I did it but not again. We also did the spinning claw thing that overhangs the stratosphere.

I jumped off it at night a couple of years ago. Hell of a fucking rush on the way down and a great view. They make you sign a waiver to say you've not been drinking. Yeah, like fuck I'd not been drinking! :lol:
