| - I liked this place better when it opened up during the Spring of 2011. Back then the atmosphere was a lot nicer, and I even knew one of the doormen (who also works at the Rain Nightclub). They play a combination of Hip-Hop and House remixes on weekends, and just some rock and Top 40's during after-work hours. It appeals to the hip, youngster crowd, combining beer and video games with a awesome dance floor.
Recently the lines have been getting a bit too long. Basically during Friday/Saturday/Sunday, after spending 45 minutes in downtown Vegas trying to look for a free open parking spot, you also had to deal with a massive line that starts forming around 9:00PM. On a holiday, say Halloween or Valentine's Day, i'm cool with that, but these days the lines have been extending across the block down to the Fremont Street Experience. I don't think the building is even large enough to accomodate the amount of people coming in.
I'm not particularly worried about the bums outside. Yeah, like all of Downtown Vegas you got your annoying wannabe homeless hustlers, but you got security and doormen to keep them far away from the lines. I have NEVER seen a fight jump off over here, just two bitch assed lil busters woofing at each other and the bouncers are vigilant to clear them out.
Police have a heavy presence here, inside and outside the club. Its really easy to spot a undercover here these days. Its basically just the random nobody that you run into that acts "a bit too friendly", and they will STALK you all across the entire lounge. Really creepy.
I would have given a 4 out of 5, but I remembered better days when it just opened. Now as all the locals thinks that this place is the hottest spot in downtown Vegas, I see alot of trashy creepers, and undercover cops milling about inside to reach their arrest quotas.
Edit: I had to drop a star for this joint...
Remember what I said about fights not breaking out? Well now at Insert Coins, a fight jumps off every 2 days. Cops regularly stop by this section of town, which includes Insert Coins, The Griffin, Beauty Bar, Vanguard, and Don't Tell Mama to haul people off to jail.
I saw this one limo driver outside run over a bum. And we all kept telling him to "go this way", but he kept driving back over the bum.
This place also lost its spot as the "hot spot" of Vegas locals, and the great DJs that used to come here when it opened packed their bags and left. Every couple a weeks, a few acts here and there and thats it. More of the slot arcade machines are getting Out of Order problems. The ratio of male to female has shifted into 90% dude, 10% chick on a regular day.
There is a common impression that this joint is "ghetto". Well it was always located in the projects, but like quicksand, its very close to consuming Insert Coins.
