Hopefully you got your entertainment moneys worth.   That is the only way to "gamble"  No expectations just having a good time with what  you would have spent otherwise.  I just wish they would make it last for more than a few minutes.   Wow it almost sound like hobbying. 

I hope you had a good birthday.

First vacation went to Scottsdale Arizona, stayed at a casino there. Losing my ass, until I signed up and played in a daily poker tournament. Made the final table and came out ahead for the trip. Gambling, company of a fine lady from the area. Best way to come out ahead in any casino I would say. Happy late birthday.

It wasn't built on profits from Blue Man Group or Wayne Newton.

Actually...

Gaming revenue is not what it once was: under 50% of revenue and Vegas has seen declining gaming revenue for several months now.

A lot of the play now stays in Macau. 

Here's a breakdown of the numbers over several decades:

http://gaming.unlv.edu/reports/NV_departments_historic.pdf

The "Other" category has been steadily growing. That are your shows, ultra nightclubs, pool parties, concerts, Cirque du Soleil. Room rates creeping up. Dining as well (read: more upscale big name chef dining vs. buffet visits, coffee shops).

(Add: yes, gaming is still the biggest single item percentage-wise, but, becoming less important in the big scheme of things)

Love Vegas (and Blackhawk) but easy to see why it's an expensive trip - even if you do ok at the tables. 

Those are interesting stats.
