My wife and I are going. Flying Delta nonstop from Minneapolis. Used a companion certificate so 1 ticket was "free" with just paying tax and fees(about $30). We use Uber/Lyft to get downtown. 3 nights comped at Fremont with $30 free play and $75 food comp. We never really gamble there because-Boyd, but maybe we'll look around. Overlapping 3 nights at The D(our usual base). Each have $200 free play and $100 food comp for the Stevens casinos.
I'll try to do a trip report but it won't be the gems like Brent posts.
Our plan is to go Friday to LVA office and grab my wife's book. Then head to the Rio(haven't been for over 10 years) to use coupons and sign up bonus to play some VP. May stop at Gold Coast too since close. Looks like Ping Pang Pong is good? Thinking about hitting that for lunch. Not sure if we'll check out Palms or not. We're not really into buffets and it sounds like VP is nothing special. Probably would play some $5 blackjack or craps if available and good odds.
Otherwise we'll hang out downtown and hit our usual spots(The D, 4 queens, Plaza, Circa and maybe El Cortez. In addition we'll see what the lines look like for Golden Gate nightly free play. Still hurts that they ruined that place.) Like to get all the free play offers and LVA coupons used. Let me know what you think. I will try to update.
