    Summer League. Who’s going this year.
    I got my Flights and Room. Booking now is cheaper.
    Figured I’d wait till the season was over at least.

    Circus Circus for me. I’m taking my nephew and the rates were really cheap.
    Was thinking about Luxor because rates are pretty good there also.

    I figured beings the season was over this thread might be a little more popular. Guess not until we know if we got the #1 pick or not.
    Maybe it's just that everyone has me on ignore and they can't see it?

    Grieving the death of such a great opportunity. I'll come around eventually.

    Hopefully we get super lucky and the regrets die a natural death.

    Nothing is dead yet. Top 4 would really be great! Tankathon gets us #4 quite a bit. It could happen and if it does this team will be in a very good position.

    You should rebook to Luxor. CC kinda sucks.

    How old is your nephew?

    Just turned 18. He’s playing his last year of U-17 Hoop Source. Senior in HS.
    He’s got a couple schools looking at him and has one full ride offer. It’s really getting exciting now.

    CC is not for him, lol.

    Book at Luxor and then take him over to the pool at Mandalay Bay. He wants to look at ladies, not clowns.

    The area around Luxor is safer. It's not around CC. There are arcades at Excalibur and NYNY, also NYNY has a cool rollercoaster.

    Was thinking about Luxor. They have some decent rates. My problem is he’s under 21 and I’m paying for multiple rooms. My room and his and his mom and Aunt. I’m also covering Flights so maybe I can keep looking for better deals.

    That was my thoughts on it. You are probably right on the clowns.

    Do you have an account with MGM Rewards? If you do log in there and look to see what they're offering.

    It's not safe around Circus Circus?

    Circus Circus is safe. If you were to walk a block off the strip around CC it gets sketchy fast.

    Once I walked from Bellagio to Fremont St. I was kind of fun i thought.

    Yes I got back online and set up an account. Got 40% off at the Luxor so the rates were decent. The resort fee doesn't drop though and that does make it more expensive.
    All in all it will be a little more but the stay will be nicer for sure.
