If you toss around terms like "Boat Drinks" and "Manana" and think that Margaritas and Rum go with just about anything you have all the criteria to turn into a Parrot Head. Jimmy Buffet is playing the MGM Grand Garden Arena this weekend and there is very little reason for you to miss the festivities.

I have to be honest with you, I have an addiction to the music, to the lifestyle and to the seminal nature of the entire Jimmy Buffet experience. I want to be slipping on the flip flops, snacking on sponge cake, acting like a pirate and mingling with the "senoritas" all because the music is intoxicating. So, this weekend is the time for you to do it.

Maybe you don't have tickets to the show, don't worry, go to the ultimate tailgate party at Margaritaville on the Las Vegas strip. Girls you'll need your grass skirts and coconut bras, boys do not forget to introduce yourself to each and every woman at this block party in Las Vegas. The party is free and it goes from 11am to 6 pm on Saturday Oct. 23 in the alley between O'sheas and Margaritaville at the Flamingo Las Vegas. Grab a Land Shark Lager and sing out loud, these are your people!

If you don't have a seat, no worries, head over to Margaritaville at the Flamingo Las Vegas, order some frozen concoction and sing out loud to every song that comes on even if you don't know the words.

You can still make to it Vegas, compare prices on Las Vegas Hotels with Kayak.com, Expedia.com or Southwest Airlines Vacations. They should give you a good idea of what you can expect to spend on a Las Vegas vacation.
