Cosmopolitan has a good one as well. $50 includes unlimited craft beer and cocktails. Some people will girl about paying for stuff, but unless you are throwing around some solid coin, drink tickets are hard to come by. $50 is nothing for a day of drinking, you can win that back on a single bet.

It was rather disappointing. I talked to the manager at Wynn this last week since i was out there for a convention, he said it is still in the air if they are going to do anything due to staffing. That seems to be the real issue. Most of these sports books don't carry an extra 10 people on staff that know how to take bets. Last year I stayed at South Point. It was fantastic, they actually cater to the sports bettor. They not only have 2 sports books ( 1 for sport, another for horse racing) but they had 2 ballrooms open for March Madness games!

I mean this in the nicest way, but I just gave a link to something that basically has a comprehensive list of things that are available for March Madness watching in LV. If you take 15 seconds to scroll through the posts, there's a Cosmo link 1/2 way down. Do a little damn work on your own. Since I'm a nice guy and it's Lent: http://www.cosmopolitanlasvegas.com/experience/event-calendar/event-details/HoopsandHops_03-15-2012.aspx

Good Luck gettin a seat or waiting less than 30 mins to place a bet. I was just in the MB book this last week. The TVS are old and busted. MB used to be the best..... but just doesn't handle March Madness well at all
