What are the rules on topless pools and shows? Is every casino allowed to have them if they wish or is there an ordinance against it in certain areas? Could they have nude sunbathing at certain pools if the casino so desired?

This might be more than one question. What is casino credit? If a person wanted to take a large sum of money ($10,000) to Vegas to only play blackjack with, but not exclusively at one casino, what would be the best and safest way to get it out there? Carry it yourself, cashier’s check or money order, traveler's checks? At home, we use a local credit union, so we can't go into a bank out there and withdraw, nor can we get more than $500 per day from the ATM.

What is the deal with Stratosphere's Club 25 adult pool? It closed with no announcement several years ago. Whenever I would call and ask the desk would say its undergoing renovations and that it is not closed for good. Its been 4 yrs of "renovations" now. Is the poor Stupak construction causing the pool to leak into the building? Is there a serious issue that makes reopening impossible? Odd that it would just disappear with no explanation.

Has anyone ever been seriously hurt or worse, killed, on any of the rides at the Stratosphere?

Can you still go to the bar and pass the line for the buffet at Bellagio?

Are there still any casinos around that offer free instructions in the table games, if you're not sure how to play? I especially am confused by craps!

I will be in Las Vegas on my birthday this year. Do any of the casinos or restaurants give out good birthday specials? (It doesn't look like this question has been answered since March 1, 2006.)

Why is it called the "Miracle Mile"? Is there a mile of shopping?

You refer to the new SLS Resort Casino opening Labor Day as a 'boutique' hotel. Can you provide your definition of 'boutique'? Thanks.

It seems like there's always a discussion somewhere that goes something like "Why can't a hotel with 2,000 rooms guarantee a simple request?" So, recently I Googled around a bit and learned that on average Las Vegas hotels ran at about 87.1% capacity in 2013. To me that means a 2,000 room hotel would have something like 258 rooms "available" on any given day. That sounds like a decent number, but how many are typically reserved by casino marketing, are unavailable due to damage, are undesirable for some reason, etc.? The more I thought about it the more it seemed that even with 2,000 rooms 87% occupancy has got to be pretty close to the practical maximum. Am I right or way off?
