ScottsGT Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Ha!  My wife said she’s in if it is in Vegas.  Of course this trip is going to cost a fortune if we go.  3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Well I asked my wife what she thought and she said we can entertain the idea. She's been to Vegas previously but much prefers the desert versus the strip so at least there's something for her. If thing don't change, I'm sure my boys will be happy to go with me to the show. They're always happy when they go to the LHS with me. Which would mean one day with family at the show and one day on my own. Carl 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Right on, I actually might be able to attend 2 nats in a row and maybe even 3. My wife is happy that is in Vegas and actually wants to go too. It's gonna be another 'Dry heat" IPMS convention lol. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand it will be in the Rio Hotel and Casino, so in that situation we won't even have to walk anywhere for food, Buffet city!! Looks like if you get the right room you could watch touch and go's at Nellis from your couch! Just over $100 bucks a night I understand! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1to1scale Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I might be able to convince the wife to take a quick vacation to Vegas. San Marcos will probably be a nope unfortunately. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HubertB Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Gotta say I spent 4 days in Las Vegas - in the Mirage - 22 years ago, in May 1997 (and managed not to play one cent, btw). That was enough of Las Vegas for me for about 4 lifetimes ... Hubert 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber_County Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Same with me Hubert, 4 nights at the Venetian and didn’t drop a dime ( whatever that is). Didn’t see much of the strip as was stuck in the Sands convention centre........ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smitty44 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Wow! SO the Vegas crew has a crap ton of info ready to go, and soon room reservation codes for 2021! Have barely heard anything about next year yet. I have a feeling Vegas will be crazzzzzzy!! https://forum.ipmsusa3.org/topic/21205-2021-national-convention-in-las-vegas-nevada/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted August 12, 2019 Author Administrators Share Posted August 12, 2019 Vegas looks like a great place for a convention, actually. One thing that needs to be kept in the back of everyone's mind is that many modellers are getting older, and walking that long distance from the rooms to the show areas gets harder and harder every single year.  Last week, I saw plenty of older people with walkers and canes really struggling with the distance. Smitty, the hotel was laid out like Omaha, convention center across the streeton one end via flyover, and hotel on the other. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smitty44 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I read somewhere that actually the average age was down this year, but why do all that if you don't need to. Looks like a one stop shop for 2021. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
