Chiefs Planning a Chiefs at Raiders trip - Page 4

I’m hopeful that the NFL will avoid scheduling this game the week of Thanksgiving or Christmas. If they avoid those two weeks I’m going to pull the trigger on a long weekend in Vegas with the wife. I know many of you have been to the new stadium. How about some helpful tips and tricks for a visit. When to buy tickets? Where to stay? What time to arrive at the stadium? Chiefs friendly establishments? Those are questions I’d love to garner some feedback on.

It's also on the ghetto side of the strip, hypodermic needles in the parking lots type shit

Free needles are the main benefit you get from paying the "resort fee".

I’ve done the casino thing. I do like to gamble, but it’s not something I want to do 24/7. I think we will end up in a luxury rental. Hopefully close enough to the strip to make it an easy drive or a quick Uber ride, but lodging is the wife’s department. Looks like this will be a Friday through Monday trip if the NFL doesn’t screw me with the scheduling.

Carlota? Yeah, she's still in Vegas and posts from time to time.

FYI no Ubers after the game and it's a sea of people walking over the bridge to the strip. You can walk to Luxor and wait in the Uber line there but it's usually a long line.

Good times.

I drove into Vegas yesterday afternoon and the last 140-160 miles was horrific fighting 40-50 mph winds driving over 80mph.

The town is quiet and I'm staying at the Trump International. Really great large room and well thought out. Very clean, comfortable and nicely decorated.

Here until Thursday or Friday for a trade show.

That Ferrari driving experience sounds awesome. That would be a great team building exercise. I'll check it out, thanks.

Trade show has long hours so not sure how peppy anyone will be....:-)

Is the schedule out yet?

I think they have created an event around the schedule release. It might be this week or weekend on NBC I think.

Katie, tell your hubby to kick some ass in Wickenburg and get those road improvements done.

Took about 40 minutes to get around all the construction and circles as 100 cars got stuck behind a tractor trailer doing 20 mph.

I Have been there the past 2 years. its awesome! Tons of Chiefs fans. I stay at the Horseshoe or Paris. Pretty inexpensive compared to others. I like to play poker and the horseshoe has a nice poker room. I purchased tickets about a month before. I checked on game day and the prices dropped that morning. I just like to have my tickets before I go.
