I have lived in Vegas for almost 4 years now and finally went to the famous sign. I guess it is nice to say you have been to the sign, but it really was not as special as I thought it might be. I think that they need to extend the parking lot to fit more cars. It had to wait for someone to leave, which made the line of cars behind me kind of stick out into the busy Las Vegas Blvd, which can be dangerous in my opinion. I know its famous for Las Vegas, but in the end I will probably not be going back there unless I know of a time when no one else will be there. Plus there are people who kind of linger around who offer to take your picture and then ask for money/tip because they took your picture. I guess if your a tourist it would be the thing to do, but not an important thing to do. Much more other things to spend your time site-seeing!
