I was in the mood to play carnival games and lucky me Circus Circus is in town!
Circus Circus hotel is very outdated and run down...in serious need of a hotel-lift. Nonetheless, it gets 3 stars because it has exactly what I was looking for.
Free circus acts on the midway are nice to stop and watch. Watched 5 guys in cheetah overalls doing the limbo and other acrobatics. Pretty neat stuff. I mean, when's the last time you saw a guy doing a hand stand off of 2 other guys' heads? Yeah, serious stuff here.
The carnival games are the same since childhood :) Throw the dart at the star, knock over the milk bottles, throw the wiffle ball in the tilted basket... A lot of the prizes were Despicable Me themed since the movie came out a while ago. We didn't play the games with the wack toys, because cammannn, who want's a generic giraffe or elephant? Games are $1-2 depending.
I wouldn't stay at this hotel. However, I would stop by on rare occasion for some games and entertainment.
