Things to Do In Vegas

Alright, it seems that several people I know are coming to Vegas, and they are asking me for things to do...well lucky for them I keep a list on my desktop titled "Vegas To Do List".

This list has been a living breathing document for almost 3 years now, if I do something fun it gets added to the list, if something closes or changes, it gets removed.

Since I've seen a ton of what do to posts on FB, Twitter, Google+, and many other places here's my list...Enjoy
