I lived there for 12 years and barely made it out alive. Lots of sex and drugs and rock and roll before it spit me out. I left in 2005 and have never looked back. It’s a nice place to visit but you wouldn’t want to live there!

Who hasn't?

I love it there. I don't drink or gamble, or even watch the shows, but even luxury rooms have GREAT rates, and there plenty of hiking trails and prime birding spots in the area.

Still, I sometimes paused while walking through the hotel lobby to plunk a quarter in a slot machine, so I could casually mention to friends at home that I had gone "gambling in Las Vegas."

About 3 billion

shit loads

Well they host about 40 million tourist per year so quite a few. Personally I've been probably a few dozen times. I think of it as a Disneyland for adults. I do like to gamble and always figure I will lose, so it stays fun for me.

Have no interest in a potemkin civilization outpost that is completey unsustainable. Will never go.

I've been there quite a few times, but it's been a long time ago.

I’ve been there twice for concerts.

Several times for several different reasons. It is not my idea of a fun time but I am glad I got to visit it just to see.

I changed planes there, once. Not interested in it's fakery.

I lived in my truck in the hills west of Vegas while I worked there building homes. It was a good place to make money, as long as you didn't turn around and lose it too.

I've never been to Vegas. I have had a night in Reno

I live in Salt Lake City and have been going to Vegas regularly since the early 70's. Have seen first hand the incredible growth of the once Mormon Settlement......

Twice ... both times on business. Used to have a client in Vegas. One thing he pointed out to me was that uniquely in Vegas it's very hard to get a personal loan from a bank because it's so common for people to borrow money to pay (and feed) gambling debts.

Needless to say, it wasn't a very impressive town ...

Enough times, but grew up in Reno so casinos don't impress me, not does giving them my money. Though lots of great, low price, food options 24 hours a day was nice.

One secret to Caesar's Bacchanal Buffet is to arrive a scant fifteen minutes before the changeover from the lunch menu to dinner menu. Then take your time slowly eating your tiny starter salad. Eventually, the dinner menu items such as The Australian spiny lobster tails and beef wellington will be wheeled out and you will wind up eating dinner menu items at lunch prices.
