If you drive down the strip out of town about 2 miles there is this gun range that has all sorts of guns you can shoot. Even some automatic weapons (i think a .50 cal or something?)
There are some alright bars in vegas too if you get away from the tourist traps and mingle with the locals on the other side of town

I'd be happy if we just evacuated Vegas and dropped a bomb on all human-touched areas. It's just a big waste of energy. Horrible.

You can go see the Shark Reef at the Mandalay Bay, see a show(blueman group?), strip clubs, gamble, some roller coasters here and there.
Not really much to do here besides the casino/party scene.
Walk down the Fremont Street Experience, at night of course

Im surprised to hear not many people are really interested in Vegas.
Its one place i have wanted to visit for a long time now, i am on a keen poker player though and would be going solely for the gambling aspect!

you like sluts? I mean it is Vegas, atleast there you won't be constantly asking yourself, "man I hope she's 18", like were as Florida her dad is next door while your banging her she is is only 15, but lied and said she was 18.

Caesar's palace has TONS of shopping. It's got all the super snotty stores like Gucci and Versache as well as plenty of art stores. Every 3 or 4 stores is a bar as well so you can't go wrong. There's one guy there who has a photography gallery in the mall that sells the most amazing panoramic photographs of cities, caves, etc.
The Rio has a 25 dollar breakfast buffet which is the shit. It has SO MANY types of food as well as ALL U CAN DRINK CHAMPAGNE. There's no better way to start the day in Vegas than to wake up, hit the Rio and drink 10 mimosa's before noon!
The Bellagio (and that other itallian place across the street) have some small art galleries which is kinda nice. They got Picasso's and stuff, but mostly shit from the 17th through early 20th century. It's a bit expensive but if you have a student ID they give you a break.
If you want to drink but not gamble, the old town party of Vegas usually has the cheapest drinks. You can probably find a place pretty fast with $1 margaritas.
If you're really broke... the best thing to do is take 20 bucks... sit down at one of those bars that have the video poker or black jack and play the cheapest hands possible... enough to get a free drink.. Once you down your drink, cash out (you'll prolly have 18 bucks left), and move on to the next bar but KEEP YOUR GLASS. 99% of places won't stop you from walking out the door with it. At the end of the day, see how HUGE you can make your glass collection. if you're lucky... you might even make back enough money on that original 20 bucks and there you go.. you'll have 50 really cool looking beverage glasses of all sorts for free. Make a game of it.
And if you're going to do video games at the bar.. try to find ones that have blackjack. Those are the only video card games where you stand a chance at making money. The video poker you can NEVER win, but if you're looking to kill time and steal glasses, it'll let you play reallly slow.

The Shark Reef there is a joke. Overpriced and it the crappiest aquarium I've EVER been to. Don't waste your time.

Personally, if I'm in Vegas and totally broke... the best way for me to entertain myself is
a) Find a liquor store and get a pint of Jack Daniels. Get a glass and pour as much Jack into it as possible... No soda. That should last you almost all day. Now you're drunk as shit all day for 1/20th of what you'd pay at the bar.
b) Bring a camera. Walknig around Vegas DRUNK AS SHIT all day taking artsy, abstract photos is a pretty fun way to kill time. You won't be able to bring the camea to the area with the tables, but there's plenty of stuff to photograph.
I never went to Vegas until I moved to LA a few years ago. The first time was when I was driving cross country on my way to moving to LA. The first time I was there I hated it. But I went a few more times and realized that if you aren't there to gamble and you bring your own liquor and pour it in a glass... you can spend a pretty fun weekend there without having to blow a lotta money.
Atlantic City is kinda nice too. Up until a few years ago there really WAS nothing to do but gamble. They've spruced it up a bit there and made it look more like Vegas by adding tons of shopping.. but there really still isn't much to do in AC. It still looks like a crappy east coast ghetto ass city with casinos but now it just looks like a crappy east coast ghetto ass city with casinos AND a city walk.

It's pretty bad compared to most big cities which have an aquarium.
The best one I've ever been to is Baltimore. It's probably less than half the price as the tiny one in vegas and you can spend HOURS in there. It's got it's own rainforest they constructed on the top floor. They have dolphin shows. There's a 5 level MASSIVE room with a long staircase gogin down where the shark tank is actually AROUND the edge of you. The walls ARE the shark tank. It's pretty badass.
If any of you guys are in Baltimore, check it out.. one of the neatest things in the city next to getting mugged and raped.

Dude.. where else in Amerca can you get a drink, walk out and keep the really cool looking glass.. wander out in the middle of the street WITH THE DRINk or get a taxi and get drunk as shit legally in the taxi.
If any of you guys live in the LA area.. in Northridge (or that little city just above it on the north edge of the valley), the ODESSY (sp?) is a restaurant/banquet hall which has Sunday brunches with all you can drink Chamagne. It's kinda like the Rio in Vegas. Only this one has a nice view. It's halfway up the Mountains the make the north end of the valley so you can see half of LA from the outdoor seating.
It's got excellent food too.
