Long time no play!
I am back from my 2nd trip to Vegas in as many weeks. I am now very OVER Vegas! It is getting out of control - first off they HATE kids there all of the sudden - 80% of the restaurants do not allow children under 5. Well at least at any of the hotels currently or formerly owned by MR WYNN. I can now see why that guy’s daughter faked her kidnapping - she must have been starved for his attention as a child! Now I am the first to admit that some people have little or no control over their children and at times that can be a huge nuisance in a restaurant. But in all honesty - my kids have eaten in some of the finest restaurants all over the world - and most of the time they are better behaved than most of it's adult patrons - I say if I am willing to pay $145 bucks to stuff a steak in my kids face - well by heaven they should let me do it - right??? Mr. Wynn doesn't agree - so I moved to the Four Seasons where they are happy to being my little prince anything he wants - and on a silver platter to boot!!!
Second - it is no longer cheap to go to Vegas. Not in the slightest. I didn't have one breakfast under $100 and let’s not even go to how much dinner costs... yikes! At an average of $125 a person - I was stuffing every morsel into my kids faces - like it or not!
Now everything has a crazy price tag on it. On the North end of the strip (all flash no class - end of the strip) you can have your breakfast - minus the kids in tow - and then take thee self over to the extremely gaudy Ferrari dealership (that you have to wait in like to get into) that elegantly sits right next to the coffee shop, and by your kids a brand new Ferrari or Masariti – you just can’t take them to see it until it is about a mile away from the entire property. Or maybe if you in the mood - a $3200 pair of shoes or something equally as overpriced and useless might be in your future – if you are mindless enough to spend that kind of money on something that you walk on! I have to say - that my final conclusion about Mr. Wynn and what he has done to Vegas is… he has made it a haven for "White trash with Money". His hotels are gaudy and they try so hard to be pretensions that they look like fools and couldn’t be further away from elegance or class. The inside of all the new hotels are so over done and ugly that your eyes hurt when you leave! Vegas in known for gaudy – but Mr. Wynn has taken it to yucky new heights.
