There are absolutely no cultural customs here, much less any faux pas in Las Vegas (except stiffing/ refusing to tip) And for the love of gawd please don't wear those fanny packs. They tempt people to hoard their money and hinder appropriate tipping. Furthermore, mounted in the front or back they just look ridiculous and in 7 years i've never heard of a single pickpocketing incident. Mullets also look ridiculous by the way, especially with a fanny pack, black socks and sandals.

And if you want to be completely immersed in the Las Vegas scene (the real one) just hang around the corner of Fremont and LV Blvd.(Strip). You will see one of the most amazing cross sections of humanity you'll find anywhere. Plenty of mullets and way too many fannypacks. Sure to please!

sdtex1969 Wed Apr 16, 2008 16:25 UTC Read your post re: "gold chain/beev skirt" but you never mention the name of the place. I guess I could drive to the address posted, but it would be nice to know the name.	hana1186 Sun Apr 1, 2007 14:03 UTC http://forum.virtualtourist.com/discussion-338480-1-1-Travel-0-0-Las_Vegas-discussion.html?s=1 please look at this, i need your help!!
