  lol, The Super Bowl game itself is not in Vegas but that is where the major gambling parties take place. I know a friend who goes to Vegas each year for the Final Four (college basketball) because of all the gambling parties. People go to gamble on major sports games in Vegas and make a big party out of it. They gamble on more than just who will win or what the score will be. They gamble on who will have the most penalties, most field goals, etc. etc.
  
  There is so much else to do in Vegas that I would avoid the strip clubs. The strip clubs give free admission for locals but charge a very high cover charge for tourists. Also don't bother asking your taxi cab driver for a suggestion because strip club owners sometimes give referral bonus money to cab drivers for referring tourists.
  
  Hope you have a good time!

  I'll be going to vegas for the fourth time in five years for the "Big Game" as they refer to it there. Lot of people, lot of buzz that weekend.
  
  You might want to consider hitting one of the clubs for the game itself. If you're a rabid fan or really like the commercials, then don't go. But if watching the game with occassional interuptions from strippers and the ability to get a dance during or after the game appeals to you and the gang, consider it.
  
  I've been going to Olympic Garden. $25 admission in the past gives you your first two drinks and bar type buffet during the game - wings, pizza, hot dogs, chips, and the like. Remainder of your drinks at happy hour prices, really reasonable. They bring in a bunch of extra flat screen tvs. During commercials girls will be throwing t-shirts, selling raffle tickets for jerseys, etc. During half time they flood the room with "dollar dances", 20-30 girls give you like a 5 second lap dance for $1. No big thrill to me but some like it. They also have several girls do a shower show.
  
  Sapphires has a similar setup. Sapphires and Treasures also offer an upgraded package for maybe $50 where it's open bar. Probably other clubs have packages as well.

  yeah, rabid fan and it looks like my team, eagles, are going to make it. I also plan on having between 2k and 5k on the game depending on the matchup and the line so I don't want distractions.

  I've been out there several times for super bowl weekend. I think that there are better uses for your money in Vegas. Most of the strip clubs are way overpriced. The big name places have a huge number of girls but your money doesn't go far at all. After the game those places will be packed. I have more fun in casino bars when I'm in Vegas.

  If you have a lot of money to spend I would go to a legal brothel, like the Bunny Ranch, instead of one of the strip clubs.

  I've been to Vegas during Super Bowl weekend several times. Most of the big Casinos open up one of their show rooms and have a giant screen in there. Vegas clubs are average, the talent is good but they are expensive and don't expect much other than looks. The Olympic Garden is the best club to hit for the Super Bowl if you want to be in a club during it, usually have a flat fee for admission and it gets you some goodies. Best club to hit in my opinion for going to a club is the Spearmint Rhino, great looking girls and a little more action than most. Plenty of IE's around if that what you're looking for.

  Spearmint Rhino for strippers. Bar at the Hard Rock Cafe for good-looking non-strippers.

  Slothrop:
  Hard Rock Cafe or Center Bar at Hard Rock Hotel casino? Hotties there. I've never been to the Hard Rock Cafe's bar...

  I'm sorry -- Center Bar at the Hard Rock Hotel/Casino. That's what I meant.

  No prob...people often use Cafe out of habit. Though adjacent they are two distinct properties in Vegas. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on something all these years.

  Another good casino spot is near the entrance to Pure inside Caesars. It's right by the sports book and they have the girls dancing behaind the blackjack tables and dealing.

  I saw a dance area at Caesar's behind some blackjack tables and the signs said "Pussycat Dolls" -- seemed to indicate that, at some time of night, dancers would be present. Tough to count the cards with that going on -- maybe that's the idea...

  IMHO without doubt the best SC is Spearmint Rhino. Layout, girls, atmosphere - it wins hands down.
