Okay, so if you're not into old, broken things -- then this place ain't for you! But if you love the history and art that come with these old and decrepit neon signs, you'll be game! Bring your camera and HAVE AT IT!
We came here with a huge group that was bussed over from the PMA 09 conference (http://www.pmai.org), for a photo safari with Photojojo (http://www.photojojo.com). It was such fun seeing all the kitschy and cool signs -- and being photographer for a day. And it's so easy with such great subjects. A great activity to do that's off the strip.
Be sure to wear close-toed shoes because of all the broken glass and rusted metal, no stiletto heels here, girlfriend!
