The saddest meal I’ve ever had was at the Fat Burger near MGM.
Pretty easy to get taken for a ride on the strip. Fat burger was a local chain--the owner's son went to Columbia and then came back to Vegas to start a DSA chapter before being unceremoniously removed from his position for trying to block a sit-in at Dean Heller's office and then later that month the Fat Burger at Green Valley Ranch tried to break up a unionization drive.
I just meant that the hard lighting and the lack of hospitality skills on display during a Fat Burger graveyard shift makes you second guess not using that last twenty in your pocket on one more roulette spin at Sahara.
The Sahara closed almost a decade ago so I've never had that problem.

How about Excalibur? That one still around?
Yeah but I suspect its days are numbered. The "family theme" casino trend is more or less giving way to the ultra-lux party experience.

Noooo not the double down. You go for punk rock bingo?
didn't know they had bingo..only sat at the dark bar and drank whiskey and played some pool
Oh don't go, it's awful. We always preferred Stakeout on Maryland or Rum Runner on Tropicana for dingy local bars.

Gotta say, as much as I love Vegas I do not miss smelling like cigarettes every time we went out.

I've had many whiskeys downtown at the griffin as well
For my money the El Cortez lobby bar is the best place to drink downtown.
