During the global recession, many people have had to cut spending on entertainment costs, like going to the movies or out to special events. That’s why several event venues have decided to very generously offer discounts on tickets to upcoming events, one of which just happens to be the 2010 NASCAR series.

Tickets for this year’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and Nationwide Series go on sale today, and the Las Vegas Motor Speedway has decided to offer a substantial discount - and some great promotions - to all ticket holders. Anyone who purchases tickets or renews tickets for next year before April 10, 2010 will receive at 10% discount!

The Las Vegas Motor Speedway is also offering a payment plan for NASCAR 2011, for attendees who have trouble paying for their tickets all at once. The first payment is due at the time of purchase, while the second and third installments will be changed to their credit cards in July and October.

“We know these are challenging times for everyone. So fans can purchase early, and the can save”, says Chris Powell, president of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

There are many other perks available, including seat upgrades, which allow patrons who are renewing their tickets to purchase better seats at a reduced rate. All patrons who take part in these promotions will also receive an exclusive poster for the LVMS NASCAR weekend.

While this may not be the best news for the competitors of the City Center hotels and casinos and much more in Las Vegas, the City Center is the place that is drawing the most traffic to the city these days. The people that are travelling and doing some lavish spending are those that were not much affected by the recent recession and are still spending as if they don’t have a care in the world.

There aren’t too many of those same travelers that were around a few years ago that could spend their extra bonuses and money that they have saved up for that special break or vacation. Now those same people are just hoping to keep their jobs if they still have them and those that do get a bonus they are being much more frugal with their spending as the economy is showing people that it is better to have a little extra and some savings in the bank rather than enjoying a lavish vacation.

It is because of this that the city of Las Vegas as a whole is experiencing a rather slower time than years past. Las Vegas as a city is glad to have the City Center present at this very tough time for the city as some of the people that are there would not be there if it were not for this newly revealed project. While the city center certainly had larger projections than the attention that they are currently receiving, they are quite happy that they are outperforming that of the competition considering everything that is happening in the current economy!

While LVS is certainly performing much better than this time last year they are not doing as well as expected and could not report extremely positive 1st quarter results for this year. The company did have quite a success in Macau but the situation in Las Vegas was still not as good as the company projections would like it to be.

The company that is headed by Sheldon Adelson has been through many ups and downs through recent times but with the newly developed and completed project in China they believed that they would have results that are over the estimates. The hope is that the company will push through the end of this recession and end up on top.

The properties that are not within the US are doing quite well but the staple hotels and casinos located in Las Vegas are bringing the company down. However, it is important to note that when these hotels are at their best they bring in the majority of the income and it is only fair to take the good with the bad.

It is not as if the LVS group of casinos and hotels within the US are the ones that are performing badly and the other hotel and casino companies are doing well. It is fair to say that the entertainment and spending on travel industries have all suffered immensely and all that is really left to do is consolidate spending as much as possible and try to run the more efficient type of business while waiting for the economy to fully recover so that better numbers can be reported.

The Super Bowl was an event that so many sports enthusiast look forward to and so many of them make a wager on the outcome of the event.

One things is for sure, there will be another super bowl next year and Vegas will be open and ready to take some bets and make some more happy fans a little richer!

Probably as much of a nightmare as you could imagine from a scene in the movies, that was the feeling of many people at Edgewater Hotel & Casino at 9:30 in the morning as a man crashed thru the doors of the casino in his car that he was driving. The crash killed two people that were in the lobby of the casino and injured at least eight others before it stopped by the force of the row of slot machines that the car had crashed into.

The crash was the accident of a 75 year old man that had reportedly suffered a health issue in the form of an attack while driving the vehicle and drove out of control. One of the people that was killed was driven over and found behind the car while the other person was stuck dead under the car as well as some slot machines. There was a look of horror on so many faces.

The slot machines were thrown around as if a tornado had come thru the casino and there was a total site of destruction in the area. Witnesses said that the car came through the glass hotel doors at a very fast speed. The people that were injured were taken to nearby hospitals and there hasn’t been a report of their condition. The power in the hotel and casino was turned off right away and the hotel and casino was completely evacuated. This is a tragic case for many innocent people and a simple accident that turned deadly.

There are many reasons to go to Vegas. Some people go to see the sites, others go to play some games at the casino, and there are many that go to enjoy the fantastic restaurants and shopping that the city has to offer! But there are others that go to Vegas with one purpose in mind. Those are the men that you see in groups, no women in site, just a bunch of guys, running around Vegas losing their minds and having a good time.

Vegas is one of the most popular destination stag cities in the world. People from all over the world gather their males buddies before the time of their weddings and plan a trip to Vegas for one last night of good old single guy fun! (make that a couple nights but who’s counting)!

There’s a saying that comes along with the things that happens in Las Vegas – many say that what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas! This is probably something that doesn’t sound that appealing to the future wives of the men that are going to Vegas to spend their last unwed days but the truth of the matter is that Vegas is just a place and while there are ample opportunities to act wild most people still end up going through with the weddings that they have planned back home.

There are plenty of things for these groups of men to do as this city knows it visitors. There are plenty of clubs for the men to visit and bachelors can seek the assistance of the host within any hotel to help plan for a trip that they are guaranteed to remember!
