We did Xmas weekend at vegas last year. Absolutelty awesome. Plenty of people without being overcrowded and almost no kids. Didn't have a problem finding games either at Excalibur or Luxor. Plus the rooms were pretty cheap for xmas eve, xmas day (before the crowds came in for New Years). Left the day after Xmas and breezed back home to SoCal but the traffic into Vegas was bumper to bumper all the way from Barstow (going the other direction [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] ). That was the start of a new "family" tradition as we're trying to hit vegas that weekend every year (unfortunately didn't make it for this year).
