Going to vegas, not 21

[send_the_msg]

My parents booked a vacation to nevada and we'll be spending some days in vegas. i'm only 19, and worse yet i look about 16, is there no hope for me sneaking into the casinos? thanks

Please read the stickies of this forum. The specific idea I'm hinting at is the "do not post about underage gambling".

no

You have no chance.

I went to Vegas a few times w/ parents while still a teenager and was kicked out of numerous casinos. I think the longest I was able to play a slot machine was about 30 seconds before I was spotted. They are very serious about this.

Luckily there is a lot to do in Vegas now for those under 21. If you really want to gamble, some of the arcades have those machines where you drop a quarter in and and try to make it knock others coins off the shelf.

this is been discussed many times before, but there is one thing that should be emphasized:

DO NOT TRY AND USE A FAKE ID.

if you're gonna take a chance playing underage, act normal and if they ask for ID, just say you don't have it on you and the worst they can do is just ask you to leave. if you get caught with a counterfeit, then you might get arrested.

A long time ago I used the "I thought you only had to be 18?" defense when I was in Vegas. They let me keep my bucket of quarters.

Seriously, you stand a better chance of getting into a bar (and I would say that chance is somewhere between slim and none) than gambling. Just have fun.
