Start Your Vacation with Dick's at the Excalibur Hotel and Casino

Monday November 3, 2008
Dick's Last Resort How do you start your vacation? Let me be more precise with my line of questioning. How would you start your Las Vegas vacation? If you drive in you are most likely coming in on I-15. If you fly in, the cab driver comes out of McCarran and heads down Paradise. Ask him to make a left onto Tropicana and drive you to the Excalibur. If you are on I-15 find the Tropicana off ramp and look for the castle.

You think I’m crazy?

Most Las Vegas Visitors tend to forget the Excalibur Hotel, don’t make that mistake. At least, refrain from making that mistake when you pull into town. Leave your bags with someone and head over to Dick’s Last Resort. A few of you will say you have one of these chain restaurants in your hometown. Yeah, well, whatever, you don’t live in Las Vegas and those rules do not apply here. Las Vegas will make people do the wildest things and the atmosphere never relents.

In other words, when the doors open the party starts and goes until late. If you need to kick start your vacation, Dick’s Last Resort is where you will do it.

Sit at the bar, get yourself a drink and prepare yourself for a preview of what your stay in Las Vegas will be like. If you offend easily, this is going to help you to drop the charade of being a prude and embrace your inner deviant.

This is simple Las Vegas 101. This is the “how to” of Las Vegas. This is the way to guide yourself to the time of your life. Grab a drink, experience the mayhem and let yourself have a good time.

Don’t thank me.

Let yourself have a good time and thank yourself on the way home.
