Off the Strip Attractions - Cool Things to Do in Vegas   If you are in Vegas and want to do somethingd different other than getting completely wasted or gambling away your life savings - I've created a list of cool and different things Vegas has that can be talked discussed to your signficant other. Remember fellas, if you are trying to cover your tracks, keep the ticket stubs in your pockets, so your story sounds credible.    

First Lap Indoor Kart Racing - Something about racing around at 50 mph and being only 4inches off the ground gets my blood going. Plus, you can get as wasted as you can prior to racing and test your driving under the influence skills. They even have drift tracks and the karts really power slide, making one hella fun experience.  

Neon Museum  - Pretty cool place where all the old signs go. Great for arsty photo shots, remember to bring your tripod.    

Indoor Skydiving - One of the more adventurous things you can do without ever really being in any harm. However, it was pretty sad when an obese fella was not allowed in the sky diving chamber due to his weight. When I witnessed that, it brought me back to the time when I was rejected for a Six Flags ride for not being tall enough. I say let the fat man have his fun and if the air cannot lift him, let him sit on the bottom for 2 mins lol.   

Bungee Jumping at Circus Circus - This activity actually involves some risk, but boy is it fun. The greatest thing is that the platform is simply a construction grate floor and at the bottom of the 400ft is a pool - which somehow assures you that if the rope does snap you won't die. Don't be like one of my friends and forget to tie your shoe cause it will fly off on the rebound. I totally recommend this with your buddies!

Hoover Dam - Don't let anyone fool you, Megatron is inside the Hoover dam! I recommend you keep on asking "where are you burying MegaTron?" every 2 mins to the tour guide. Overall, its a cool place to go and is superwindy, so bring a kite for some really fun times.     

Richard Petty Racing School - This is for you Nascar fanatics out there. This great facility gives you the opportunity to race a real nascar stock car around an oval track. They give you a 1hr class on safetey and racing techniques, make sure to ask the instructor to skip that part and move straight to the Police manuevers technique portion where you can learn the covented "pit manuever".
