BREAKING NEWS V/P

I, not more than 2 1/2 hours ago received an e-mail from V/P that gave me "three nights comped" and $50 in free play!!! I immediately called and tried to book the weekend of June 24 and 25, the same weekend of the Daisy Light Rave at Las Vegas Speedway (which they held at the LA Coliseum where a young girl od on Exstacy and were banned for four years?). Only to be told that it was sold out that weekend.... David a V/P room reservation host who was nice to talk to but had no clue and was a new hire and knew nothing about what was going on with the comped room situation. David said I could book another weekend but I declined and said thank you very much!

I than called Treasure Island which I had a two night comp, but they also said they were sold out! I than called Mandalay Bay first of the Mlife clan which I had a comp and low and behold I'm staying there for freeeeeee!

I think Sheldon "maybe" might have seen the light!!!

As we have all said "he will come around"! And guess what, HE DID!!!

Maybe Sheldon is just trying to get some bodies in the hotel between all the convention business he's doing.

doesnt the convention business drop off in the summer?

I thought you were talking about video poker!

gee, at first I did too! I thought maybe Caesars switched to full pay!

How do you know they aren't planning to cancel your comp and offer you rack rate at the last minute?

With their track record of late, I don't know if I would trust them.

And why give them any play with the chance they may pull all of the comps again

when the convention business picks up again in Sept/Oct.

I think a lot of us were expecting this for the dead convention period that is summer.

they aren't too keen to make up with me. I got the $20 free play offer, but not this one

Perhaps everyone that gets one of these offers should book it, preferably all on the same weekend. 24 hours before their scheduled arrival they could all call to cancel but let the Venetian know that they would still be willing to come if they upped their free play amount by $200.

Good one!
