Man I have to say there is NO PLACE in the world like Tahoe . And that is coming from someone who travels a lot . Heavenly is a great great mountain . The entire town is like an ole fashion christmas day EVERYTIME IT SNOWS !! If they get as much snow when you go as they have been lately . You should be in for a real treat !! . Dont forget to take tons of pics to show everyone on here !!

vex is in harrah's hotel. the best thing to do is to go early to avoid the line and get a bracelet. thne head out somewhere else until much later when the club hots up.

my experience is not of expensive drinks but i am local and really only go on thursdays when it was dollar drinks. i have not been for a while so i'm not sure that still applies. the thing i most remember is that the music would be ok then it would get in a groove for about 15 minutes then the dj would empty the dancefloor by dropping some crap tune, then the pattern would start all over again...

Last time we were in Tahoe we hit up Mc P's...that was a badass place to hang out.

Where is a good place to really party? Montbleu?

we stayed at Mont Bleu. Good times, what I can remember, but I think we only partied there one night of four nights we were there...

Unfortunately not anymore. My bro is a bartender at Vex and he told me they are only open on Fri/Sat now and that Blu and Opal @ Montbleu took a TON of the local business. All kinds of corporate drama w/ management at Vex I guess, he said that by taking away the local deals and locals night, Vex management basically handed Montbleu tens of thousands of dollars in weekly biz...

My first trip out west was to Tahoe. Nothing like putting a bunch of borderline alcoholic gambling junkies that like to ski/snowboard in a place where they can enjoy all their vices. Lots of good memories there, but the one that stands out is one night we decided to break away from the casino area and hit up some local bar. We found our way to some hole in the wall on the CA side....decent crowd but nothing too stuffy. We run into the hostess we had at the sushi place earlier that night there drinking with friends. About 30 minutes later, that same hostess is laying on the bar topless with her friends licking whipped cream and booze off her boobs. We got pics. Good times!

I hope so, I put a transfer at work to be relocated from Detroit to Tahoe area!!
