Being under 21 in Vegas?
 
What are some good places to visit in Vegas if I'm under 21?
I'm planning on going next week but have never been.
What are some good places to eat/visit?

Last time I went to Vegas I stayed off the strip and I stayed at the Golden Nugget. The pool was pretty cool, it had a water slide that went through a shark tank.

Also, mmmm, buffets.

There's the Mirage Zoo, where you can see the dolphins and the white tigers/lions.

Plus, the stratosphere I believe has the rides up at the very top if you're into that sort of activity. :)
Plus, sightseeing. M&M factory. All the impersonators. :w00t:

Caesar's Forum Shops is pretty cool, although pricey. Also, walk through the Venetian. There's a Madame Tussauds wax museum near the entrance to the Venetian too. Lots to do, just wandering up and down the strip. The Luxor has an IMAX theater inside, and it's worth just seeing the inside of the hotel. New York New York has a roller coaster on top. And you can always catch a show. Any of the Cirque du Soleil shows are good. I'm a big Beatles fan, so I especially liked "Love" at the Mirage.

Me and the lady are staying at the hard rock. Anyone stay there and have any reviews on it?

I've heard a lot about the buffets, is the buffet pass worth it or is it better to just go to one?
I'll probably stop by the m&m factory, since I've been to Hollywood numerous times I've seen enough impersonators for a life time. :P

+1 for the Wax museum, completely forgot about that.
Apparently it's haunted, too. (Saw it featured on a ghost hunter type show). Adds to the fun. :)

Bunny Ranch.

Do the jump off the Stratosphere. It was pretty fun and you can GoPro yourself. Me and my dad did it about a month ago. Great view, for a few seconds anyways. :)

Take the day trip out to Hoover Dam. It's worth the trip.

Plan for at least a day or two of walking the strip to people watch.

The big hotels are pretty cool to walk through and browse. Bellagio, Ceasar's (especially the mall), NewYork NewYork, Venetian, etc are all pretty cool.

Personally, I would pass on the buffets, except for maybe breakfast. There are so many good restaurants in the different hotels that you can find pretty much anything you want. Some of them are pricey, but if you choose well, worth it.

Check out a Cirque du Soleil show. They are spectacular.

If guns are your thing, go to one of the gun shops that offers full auto packages. I did this with my son (16) when we went and had a blast.

THIS. By far the best buffet in Vegas right now and I've been to all the best ones. Bellagio used to be king, but isn't as good as it used to be by far.

Circus Circus actually isn't that bad and you can have some carnival game fun with your SO. I'm 35 and I always make a trip to firsty actually go to an arcade, and secondly, win some prizes by beating little kids at horse racing and blowing up balloons. Ski Ball is fun too.

yup
Bellagio was good, but Wicker Spoon blows it away.
so damn good
i want to go to Vegas now

I miss Vegas.

I don't think I can give that much recommendation to someone who's under 21. I guess you could just check out some shows, hit up some clubs, check out some interesting restaurants.... hmm that's about it. I never saw the point for anyone under 21 to go there so yeah that's all I got.

True. Unless you're loaded and don't have a bunch of high end shopping and restaurants in your 'hood, there's no need to go to Vegas IMO unless you really had a hard-on for the Star Trek Experience before they closed. That was on my bucket list btw.:bellyroll:

That sounds fantastic! I'm missing Vegas already. :(
