Stuck at the vegas airport

So, I showed up for my flight and stood in line, got to the counter and was told I had to go to their kiosk to print out my boarding pass, which I had a printed out copy. Went thorough that the got told by this other lady that they have to print it out at the counter so I went back up to her and she tells me that I missed my boarding and have to pay to Rebook.
I almost lost my shit because I missed my flight because they we're bullshitting me around. So I pay to Rebook for a flight four hours later.
So now I'm stuck at this ghetto ass casino airport. I already hit the bar and took a few shots and a few beers Fuckers charge 11$ a shot and I just spent 200$ to get a new ticket Fuck this place.
Now I'm drunkard and bored. What should I do?

I went to the airport to head home after a disastrous first meeting with my potential in-laws.
I won't go into the backstory, but I went to board my flight (and this was red-eye hours, mind you) and I was met with some frizzy haired whack job who wouldn't let me board because they hadn't gotten to my row yet.
The whole place is literally empty except for me and her, and my row was only 1 away from the ones that were currently being boarded.
After some bickering I was told to step aside and wait, so I take 3 steps to my right and stand there.
About 10 seconds of dead silence go by with her just kind of standing there with this quirky smile when she finally picks up the little telephone (linked to the overhead) and announces, "Thank you for waiting. We'd like to continue boarding the aircraft now. We're now boarding all rows, please. All remaining rows."
I take my 3 steps back towards her and hand her my pass.
"Mm, hello. Mm-hmm. Enjoy your flight."

Gotta be on point at airports,e tickets,gotta have em printed out before hand,I,ve never used a kiosk,always go to counter,I get to airports like 2 hours before flight and usually drink like a 12 ounce bottle of whiskey or bourbon before boarding,makes the experience much more tolerable,next time make a scene about rebooking,they will waive it if u make a stink

Brothels in Vegas are actually illegal. You're thinking of Reno.

Can't you gamble in the airport? I don't see how being there would be such a bad thing. It's like being at a titty bar upset that you're missing the game.

You know, I'm actually surprised that I don't see more hourly motels or "beds for rent" at major international airports. Places to sleep where you can pay for half a day, or for 5 hours, or however long you need. I mean, some people end up getting snowed in and can't fly for days sometimes. This service could be really successful I feel like.
Edit: Oh shit, looks like the concept is just starting to become popular. I could have sworn I've seen a similar concept in Philadelphia Airport, and maybe even in Dallas Airport, but I've never seen it at JFK or LAX which are the most popular and busy airports in the country:
Quote:
Atlanta, Philadelphia: The sleep pods at these two airports are called Minute Suites. There are five pods in Atlanta on Delta's Concourse B, and 13 at Philly. A minimum one-hour stay will set you back about $30. Every 15 minutes thereafter costs $7.50. This adds up pretty fast. But rate reductions are offered after four hours, and there's a flat overnight rate of $120. In addition to a daybed sofa, pillows, blankets and HDTV, the rooms also have a sound-masking system in each suite that neutralizes noise.
http://www.cnbc.com/id/47977014
I don't understand the payment system though. Why would somebody book for over 4 hours if the flat overnight fee is $120?
I just looked at the pictures on Yelp, that's cool that they provide computer and TV at least. But seriously, they're charging over $30 an hour and they can only provide a couch/futon and not even an actual bed?!??!?!

Being at a titty bar is grim enough without missing a game.
