up there. And that's what thelady told me at the DMV when I
(00:44):
was getting my plates. So atleast they got my plates. Let's start
there. Um. So I'm gonnagive you seven reasons why you should and

to twenty dollars off the Marvel AvengersStation, which my son loved.

shows and ga at the Neon Museumfifteen the Neon Museum locals disc is great
and sometimes yet dirt cheap to go, Whereas if you're from somewhere else,

(02:13):
took you fifty six minutes or fiftyeight minutes to get m Okay, I'm
tripping. I need to go upthere. Fifty eight minutes to get from
the strip. We started at theWin and ended at Lee Canyon. It's
actually a shorter trip to go toMount Charleston proper. You know, Lee
Canyon is on the other side ofthe mountain, so actually takes you less
time to get to the snow atMount Charleston Charleston Peak. That has to
get to Lee Canyon, which ison the other side of the mountain with
(02:35):
fifty eight minutes, okay in ourJeep Grand Chair No, I'm sorry.
Our Jeep Wrangler four by e fromJeep only sponsored Ashtag sponsored. But yeah,

few. Free pool admission to lotsof different pools, including the pool at
Tropicana. I mean there's that's justthe admission aspect, all right. Not
(03:20):
all pools do that. More poolsshould. Trump Cana is a great pool,
and yeah, it's free admission justduring weekdays or what just during the
weekdays. Yeah, most of themare probably just during the weekdays for that
reason. Has done that at times. Yeah. I love the Mandalid Pool.
You know what, I haven't beento the pool in twenty years at
Mandalid the Way one. It's likea little beach. It's awesome. Um
let's talk rides, okay, reasonnumber two rides. Okay, you got

Flow Rider. Ten dollars off flylink at the link. That's the big
I haven't done anything. Uh twodollars off all day, all day wristbands
at Adventure Dome. You were waitingfor that one. Waiting for that?
I mean, favorite place in theworld. Look that maybe the world worth
(04:30):
the price of admires my favorite placein the world. I retracted that I
was my favorite player is my favoriteI used to like, I love clam
machines, that like arcade games.I just love rides. I'm just a
big kid man. I mean,Jason Isbell was here a couple of I
(04:53):
don't know about a year ago,maybe maybe eighteen months ago, and he
said, I took my daughter toAdventure Dome because every but he said,
go to Adventure Down. That's whatyou do with your kids when you like
that's like going to a theme parkin a county jail. Wait, who
said that? He said that.He said, it is weird that it's
(05:14):
indoors, but it's also it's ablessing and a curse. On a nice
state, It's like, oh,it'd be grateful were outside, but on
a hot day, yeah, let'sgo kind of nice. I kind of
like that. So I see bothsides of that. But that's a good
quote. We need more rides forkids, that's true. That done.
Look okay, So that's two reasonsright there, the rides and the attractions.
All right, okay, parking,let's go there. And this is
(05:36):
where ya this is the big thingfrom You have to have your your license
plate too, to Nevada, soyou get them both changed. But Caesar's
and MGM resorts up to three hoursparking, which if you go to see
a show and you time it right, you could probably I'd like to see
him expand at the five for surepreach. Yeah, hey yo, anybody
from any drink listening, let's yeah, that's a great point, Tony,
(05:56):
because when the show's over, maybeI want to hang around and put one
hundred dollars into them or whatever justfor kicks and get a drink. But
I gotta rush because I got freeparking for three hours only. That's a
really good point, and they probablylose a lot of opportunity to get locals
to actually stay in gamble a littlebit because of that. I'm there anyway.
I mean, although you could getin the car and go drive to
another MVM or season's resort and gogamble there, but but I gotta walk
(06:17):
by a thousand machines on the wayto the parking garage because I gotta make
my three hours. Yeah, we'recomplaining about three three hours, but yes,
let's get it at five. WhatI'm saying is you're saving a bunch
of money. They should make itfive point. I mean, what are
you really litle free to park atthe win Yep, the wind And I
was gonna say the other one toTreasure Island also Venetians free. To um
(06:39):
is a Venetian free. I wentthere on Friday night for Nicky Glazer and
David Spade free. I wonder ifthat's going to change with the sphere opening
up. Good point, by theway, shout out to Stratton Resorts World
for not offering free parking to locals. Super weird. Yeah, that is
weird and the resortable. MGM,Belagio you gotta pay no, No,
(07:01):
I think Belaio. You gotta knowno three hours local, three hours,
you gotta take a ticket on theway in. Yeah. But the cool
thing that I'm always at the Belagiofor more than three hours pulling up that
girl all the way to the striphad just been been three hours. It's
going to be there longer. No, I'll tell you why. On a
weeknight, I can drive over tothe Belagio, take advantage of the free
parking. Go check out the conservatoryand what it looks like at the moment,
(07:24):
Go catch a couple of fountain shows, boom home by within an hour.
All right, I follow you thatthat's a cool perk. Again,
only if you're local do you getto do that for free? So free
parking reason number three, number fourspas and shout out to Joanna from the
Aga and Joanna Show. I askedher, what are we forgetting here?
Because I'm told her, ask youguys. She said, there's spas that
do like twenty thirty percent off thespot at the Hilton Lake, Las Vegas.
(07:46):
She says, she goes there,it's twenty percent off because she's a
local. D I mean, you'reselling me, selling me, just selling
me. They're spas go along withand maybe this is already on your list.
But what I mentioned last week wasgolf is like half price for locals.
You know, I didn't include golf. Okay, town and you're playing
one of our golf courses, you'regonna pay a ton. There's a resident
(08:07):
price at all the golf courses thatis way less. I forgot golf.
Shame on me. Okay, we'regonna make this eight reasons, right,
Okay, So there's four, there'sfive, let's go six. All the
shows you know how much you canget discounts on and they vary. So
I'm just going to run through thelist. Michael Jackson One UK, Jabbilwaukee's
Beatles, Love oh By, cercAbsence, Zumanity, Copperfield, Pen and
(08:30):
tail Or, tape Face, Pipthe Magic Dragon, Terry Fader, Atomic
Saloon, Tournament of Kings, MattFranco, Blue Man Group, all have
discounts for locals. Ice how muchof a discount they all vary, but
but look, I mean twenty bucks, it's still it's just on the ticket.
Yeah, absolutely, reason number sevenand we're gonna go eight because he
brought in golf. And that's agreat point, Tony. I should have
(08:52):
researched that deeper food. Uh,some of the buffets at two for one
at the Paradise Garden into Flamingo theybuy I won't get one of hashash and
go go in link twenty percent offat the Mirage Diners for locals. Yeah,
food, I forgot about that.You know much cheese? You can
get a buffet. Why don't wetalk about these more? Why do you
think it doesn't get discussed these specialsmore? And I have an answer?
(09:16):
I'm curious. I have no idea, all right, I don't know how
much it costs to go to seethe Beatles Love Show. But is it
one hundred and normal price? Isit one hundred and twenty? I took
my parents and it was I thinkthe total was close to like four hundred
for the three of us. Okay, that's decent seats. That's an expensive
night. Yeah, twenty percent off, it's still an expensive night. So
(09:37):
I think that maybe the discount needsto be deeper to really get people to
come out and do this. AndI'm using that as an example only because
it was top of mind, becauseI know I'm going to that show because
it's such a great show. Itis a great show. But yeah,
I think the discount needs to bedeeper. Like some of this almost seems
like it's just like, wow,we're supposed to offer a locals discount twenty
(09:58):
percent, you know what I mean. I think they're just not disclosing in
because they just want the people tospend the money. Well, look,
I don't know about Beatles Love inparticular, but as hard rock takes over,
they're going to keep offering free parking. I'm going back to that too,
that they should, but these discountsshould, especially on like uh,
non prime time shows like a Thursdaynight at six show, if they offer
it, you know, those shouldbe deeply discount They if you don't have
(10:20):
your ID, they'll usually say,well, just bring us a bill that
shows that you live here. SomethingI've never seen that, I think,
or that used to be the case. They probably do. I think that's
still like you've got a Nevada Energybill, shows your address and bring that
in. You know, look,man, but you should get your ID
alright. You can't get the freeparking with a Nevada Energy bill. You've
(10:41):
got to have the idea, yougot thing to get the free parking at
the Bellagio. I have literally thecost it costs to get my ID and
my license plates. I mean eventhe annual fee, which isn't a tremendous
amount of money. I have morethan paid for that just off the parking
alone. But we're giving you eightreasons. You've heard seven and so far
the eighth and final if you wantto have a little staycation in town,
(11:03):
and what a great city to havea staycation in your city? Las Vegas
has so many great hotels and properties, resort fees waved at almost all of
them free for locals. So youknow that forty five fifty dollars fee they
tack on if you're a Las Vegaslocal with an idea to prove it that's
waived, I mean even the station'sproperties. And you love Red Rock,
right, was it you and Ithat we're talking about that you were going
(11:24):
to stay do a staycation and youwere like, dude, I forgot if
you're a local, they waved thefees. Yeah, because I ordered it
through hotels dot Com directly. Yeah, by the way, don't go through
third parties. If you're gonna tryto take advantage of that, go directly
through the hotel. There you go. Okay, Like, I wasn't aware
of that one until you mentioned itlast week, So that's that's good to
know. Yeah, I think I'vepaid resort fees to do the staycation in
(11:46):
this town. I think, butjust because I didn't know, right,
I mean, if you so,if you're staying at pick a location.
We went to the Palazzo for ouranniversary a couple of years ago, did
a couple of nights, Okay,so any location, pick a location that
has a show, one of thosedining credits, a buffet. I mean,
I don't know about the parking thing, because you're gonna stay more than
three hours, but you could endup saving at least one hundred, if
(12:11):
not more, dollars on your statejust by taking advantage of the opportunities.
This sounds like a pro tip.This is under the header of pro tip
I liked us. It is absolutelya pro tip. And a lot of
people move here, and how many? I mean, look, we all
haven't changed our phone numbers, right, none of us have seven or two
area codes. Las Vegas the secondand the second destination that people are moving
to. So many people moving here, you need to know. Don't wait.
(12:33):
It might. It's not like anyother state where it's like I can
put it off. I'll see howlong I can get away with until I
get a ticket, and then maybeI'll think about it. I'm thinking about
it, so maybe this inspired mejust a little bit more. Go hang
out with your homies at the DMV. Pull a number, take your phone,
you can watch a little video,get your Netflix out, spend an
(12:54):
hour and then you'll get to thefront of the line. They're all very
nice at the DMV. Yeah,it's a very organized Just bring your smile
please, DMV. Are you goingto by the way, No, I've
done several d I've done the DMVs. If you make your appointment, it
takes a heck of a lot lesstime than going to certain change places.
I'm only half joking. I thinkthe DMV people are actually like they're almost
(13:15):
pleasant, saint like in their patience. Yeah, you ain't kidding, well,
they you can do it online,and they do say a lot of
the things that people do go tothe DMV for you can't do it online.
So getting an ID, I don'tthink I have to go sext week
on the show best DMV lo case. I love that they're gonna have a
lot of decay people coming out forthat one. And when you when they
(13:39):
say you're gonna need your vehicle smog, don't trip on that. That's an
easy process to Yeah, a Vin check, right, isn't that the
whole thing you have to do inNevada? I think so they did that
yesterday when it was getting my owngot to go to the smog check place
though, that's the that's the painof it. The one in Henderson is
in the same parking lot as theDMVs, like it could not be easier.
One at the gas station right thereby the Freddys. Don't let don't
(14:00):
the todos of the process deter youfrom getting it done. The process is
not as looming as you might thinkit is, and the perks outweigh the
process that's might take away from thisthank you
