I kinda like this place. It's kinda cool.
I tend to forget exactly where in the Mandalay Bay Forty-Deuce is. Seems strange to me for a club that's always bumping to be tucked off in a tiny corner of the casino. It's probably a good idea, though. I'm afraid if it was in a more conspicuous area, it'd be even more difficult to get from the door to the bar to the bathroom.
The bartenders were fast and friendly with us, and the drinks were incredibly stout. It was difficult for me to enjoy the music as the DJ was skipping through all the hooks of every popular song at breakneck speed. "Just like the white-winged dove ... I'm counting sheep but running out ... take this pink ribbon off my ... I'll let you whip me ...." It was irritating. Luckily, that medley only lasted a short while, and we actually got to hear the majority of a Daft Punk song before we left.
Still, the musical blunder aside, I like the Forty Deuce. I love its bathroom doors -- they substituted the usual "Men" and "Women" with the names of key body parts unique to gender. It makes me giggle. The first time I saw the men's room, I looked at the door and thought, "Is that where you go if you have one or if you are looking for one? Or is that just intended to be a general insult to anyone who happens to read that?" But then I saw the ladies' room door and ruled the latter out.
I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who has a tendency to get lost in the bigger night clubs. There's just no room to lose your way here.
