    International Las Vegas Hilton LVH Westgate is the spot.

    They turn their theater into an area with multiple game similar to the way they do for NFL Sundays.

    And in the sportsbook area, they still offer free drinks.

    Mandalay has a great book but it is jam packed. Old Hilton Westgate was awesome if you had the pass to get all you could eat/drink all day. I recall the MGM being a little to small.

    I would probably go to the sports bar adjacent to MGM's sports book than the actual book.

    The book is great if you can just sit in there during the day ... but the sports bar that is adjacent is quite good with a great beer selection and really good food.

    I don't think I'll make it to Vegas this year, but plan on Reno/Tahoe as a back up. In Reno, The Grand Sierra Resort (I like to call it GSR) has a great sports book. I'll never forget calling my professional gambling buddy before the alabama - texas title game and getting his advice to take the under on Colt Mccoy TD passes at 1.5

    I put a grand on it for myself and a grand for him. Once Mccoy went down with the shoulder on the first drive, I got so drunk and had the time of my life.

    The kicker is if the book had labeled the bet "Texas QB" I would have lost because 5-star Gilbert played the best game of his career and threw 2 TDs.

    Bellagio used to be the only one left with free drinks, not sure if they still have them. The trick is to find a place that gives you a free drink with a horse bet. It's basically a 2.50 drink and gravy if your horse wins. Mirage was like that but its old school. Cosmos is nice but don't know the situation.
