What can i say that dozens and dozens havent already said? Its the friggin Vegas sign, and its awesome.
Im 41 years old and i have been coming to Vegas since i was 20 years old and i have never been to this sign. I never knew where it was and never felt like asking anyone.
So my wife and i came to Vegas this past week to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary by getting re-married by Elvis himself. I told my wife i just had to finally find this damn sign. So as we drove out of town to go back home, i had my wife google it and i couldnt believe it was so damn close to the main strip, i always thought it was several miles away off some freeway. This whole time its been a mile or so off the strip.....DAMN YOU!!!!
Anyway...i heard from people it was super easy to get to because they recently built a parking lot because too many people were getting hit playing chicken across the street....who knows if thats true?
It was breath-taking, ive seen it hundreds of times in movies, post cards, tattoos and everything in between.
We got there on a Wednesday around noon and there were maybe 10 people in line so we just stood off to the side and had a friend take our picture. There was a fat, sweaty guy dressed as Elvis with his jump suit zipped all the way down to his navel who was taking pics with people. It was hilarious.
The parking lot is tiny and crampped so be really careful driving down it cause morons pull out fast and could back into you.
Have fun!!!
