Never ever ever ever go to Las Vegas during any of the following type of events....Pornography conventions, electronic conventions, or magician conventions (especially when they all occur at once). I had to find that out the hard way. Thanks to a freak snow storm in Portland Or (that I have since found out never happens unless I am coming to town)I missed four flights and seeing Chris Rock in concert, and learned why you should never stay in any hotel that advertises "The Beetles" as the last celebrity's to stay there. I wont go into depth but here are a few of the details....The flight to Portland was cancelled so we decided to go to Vegas. Upon arrival we found out (thanks to the conventions) all hotels were sold out except one at $500.00 a night and one at the alleged 2nd oldest hotel in Vegas "The Sahara." Needless to say we chose the latter. We spent a ridiculous amount of money on taxis with drivers that either had a death wish or were moonlighting as race car drivers, and I lost $300 more dollars than I had to spend. Problems aside it was actually a good trip thanks to great company. Well odd first post but I am tired of typing so talk to ya.....
