Wild Wild West Truck stop! LAS VEGAS NEVADA

There is a lot of pre season football you can bet on tonight, too. I heard on a radio show last night, take Tennessee over Carolina.

 

Great area,
the Orleans just west of there has a big movie theater and truck parking, but the Wild West is a short walk to the big casinos to the east.

 

I have stayed at The Orleans and I liked it. They have a shuttle to The Strip every 30 minutes or so.

 

Who bets on pre-season football and why? May as well bet on coin flips.

I mean how does one even begin to "calculate odds" on such a game where it's not about winning the game?

 

I agree @STexan . But the bookies are laying odds and people are betting.

 

A great place for Truckers. Enjoy it while you can. That 108 acres it sits on is in the top running for our new football stadium in Vegas. Personally I hope that does not happen. Great spot. Lotsa parking. Cheap rooms with CDL discount. ( But around the weekend you better have a res. And they really jack the rates up.) Laundry. Shower over at the fuel desk. Still giving out free coffee at the fuel desk if you fuel last I heard. And it is not that bad of brew. They also have a Denny"s. But there is a In and Out Burger. Wendys. Carls.
You can hike over the I-15 and be in New York New York or the Excalibur in around 20 mins. Be careful walking along Tropicana. The working girls are there and the cops watch it a lot.

I used to park there when it was called the King Eight. Fun times!

P.S. Good luck on your bets. Your darn tootin people bet pre-season in Vegas! If there is a market that they can book action on they will find it. There is UFC fight happening as we are posting. Mcgregor vs Riaz I think the guys name was. Good stuff.

 

I like staying at the Rio, they allegedly have truck parking but I got kinda lost looking for it. Ended up parking at Gold Coast and walking across the street to the Rio. Walking inside the Rio was more steps than walking across the street.

 

That's the absolute WORST Denny's I've ever had the misfortune to try to eat I'm!

 

I'm old school. I like the vibe of the 4 Queens & the Nugget in downtown. If I'm gonna go fool around, I go there. Park at Petro & cab down to the clubs. The Nugget is about the most fun you can legally have I think.
