the guys who put this together are GENIUSES! i mean, gaming and the casino are cool and all, but, why not do something that is not traditionally Vegas. you know, cause it's in the desset and all. enter The Ice Rink.
mama and i found a Groupon for here. rentals and all for only $15 for the both of us! how can we not go here? this place is so much fun. and that' coming from a guy who hasn't ice skated since i was 16 and was pretty crappy at it even then. we spent about an hour and a half there, working up a dinner appetite. the place was relatively full. the zamboni came by to do a clean up too which helped out. falling on our a$$es, spinning and twirling and just reliving our youth, was how we spent this 90mins. did i just say that it was fun?
mama and i also embibed in a couple holiday adult beverages while waiting for the zamboni. delicious pumpkin spice latte cream nog drink thing. they should've been delicious considering they cost $12-$15 a piece. fake grass surround the rink and some nice fire pits and lounge chairs surround the place.
overall, a great idea and a great time had by us. we'll definitely put it on our to-do list if we are back in vegas and a Groupon is available.
