What are your regular downtown stops

My spouse and I have made many Vegas trips where we spend multiple days downtown. We have some regular downtown stops. Here are some of them:
- Triple 7 brew pub at Main Streets for happy hour
- Golden Nugget Poker room
- Dueces Wild 25 cent progressive at the Golden Nugget (we have both hit royals on these machines)
- Main Street craps table to play craps with the Hawaiians
- Walk to El Cortez to escape the madness for a while and play black jack
- The D café for breakfast.
- The Mediterrean Café (now called Couscous) to share a huge chicken skewer, couscous, and pita (enough for two)
- The D to play the upstairs 25 cent horse race machine.
- A 99 cent margarita at the Fremont bar.
- Four Queens to play the DDB 25 cent full pay progressive.

We'd like to hear what other people do downtown.
- Dinner at Binnions Steak House
- Breakfast at the Main Street Station buffet
- blackjack at the El Cortez
- happy hour drinks at the El Cortez bar
-Getting black peppercorn pistachios from the Jerky Hut
-Using my free room offers at Four Queens and eating at the Magnolia Cafe
-Playing video games at Insert Coin
-Doing the daily slot/VP promotion at Binion's
-Checking out vintage toys at the Toy Shack

#1 The beef Jerky store. I try something new in there every time I go to Las Vegas.....ever try crab jerky with the shell still on?? Take a left after the Fremont casino like you are heading to the new Downtown Grand Casino, its on the right

#2 Go to the very back of the Le Bayou casino and buy a football size banana daiquiri. Do NOT get the extra shot for a buck! (trust me on this one!) The drink cost $16 for the 1st one and all re-fills are $8. My football has been going back and forth with me for years.

#3 Watch the girls take off their tops on the big screens outside of the Girls of Glitter gulch gentlemen's club (gad-zooks!).

#4 Go pee on the Berlin wall....and all that it stood for.......in the men's room at the main Street Station (ok, maybe not pee on it, but definitely, accidently shake a dribble or two on it). Is it politically incorrect to insult the commies these days?

#5 Go into the back of the Mermaids casino for a hotdog, take one look at that sty, ponder why the place is actually full of people eating there and then go to Binion's for a real chili cheese dog!......I do this at least once every single trip-I have no idea why??

That's just a sample enjoy............................ weggie

Not any more. They've replaced that old video with some abominible video thing now. My brother and I used to call whichever one of us wasn't in Vegas and just read along with that video - gad-zooks! Yikes! Zounds! Indeed!

Just more evidence that downtown Las Vegas is getting too big for its britches
01). Comp Room Offers
02). Blackjack @ El Cortez
03). Pick 'Em Poker At Fremont

Check for coupons for there. I'm now seeing that in the Vegas Values Coupon Booklet that I picked up for my trip between 10/14 and 10/17 was a coupon for there for Free Beef Jerkey with a $20 Minimum Purchase (this coupon expired 10/30/2013 -- but keep your eyes open for this if you're interested).
