Viva Las Vegas

In the Vegas airport you can do the following:

-Gamble your entire life away as the airport is littered with slot machines and seems more like a casino where airplanes occasionally land.

-Work out. They have a gym there. Here's what their website says about it:

"Fitness Center: The first of its kind located inside a major U.S. airport, 24 Hour Fitness offers shower and locker room facilities, steam room and dry sauna, a cardiovascular workout area complete with big screen TVs, and a full compliment of exercise equipment. For more information, call 702/261-3971. Location: Terminal 1, Level 2, above north Baggage Claim. Hours: 24 hours, Monday - Thursday 12 a.m. - 11 p.m., Friday 6 a.m. - 9 a.m., Saturday & Sunday."

-The usual shopping, eating, checking your email.

-Shoot a machine gun. In all fairness, this is advertised in the airport but you have to take a taxi to get there. Even gun-happy America doesn't have shooting ranges in the airport. At least not while we are waging the so-called war on terrorism, anyway.
