"I think its got to be the most overrated city on earth. "

Agreed, but people have just got to go see it. We learn by doing ... and making mistakes.

I'm saying that your GF (and yourself) might find it quite uncomfortable walking the strip with guys handing your porn mags (for special services) every 20 feet or so. They tend to push them on you whether you are with a woman or not.

You must understand that I am biased against places like Vegas. I live close to Disney World and, for the life of me cannot understand WHY anyone would actually pay to visit the place. I've been to Vegas (as an adult) and (to me) it is just a very expensive Disney World with a lot of drunks and free porn.

vegas strip is very safe. it's bad business for a casino if someone gets murdered in front of their casino. picture news crews, dead body, chalk outline, and their casino in the background.

now walking past the Stratosphere, on the other hand, is putting life in your own hands. The stratopshere is the last casino on the strip. walking past there is scary at nite.

the porn pushers arent that bad. just walk past them, like you would a panhandler on the street.
