Best place to watch Giants @ Falcons in Vegas

UK Giants Fan : 7/5/2018 8:37 am
Morning all.

I am coming over to travel the states for a fortnight in October, got my tickets sorted for the Giants vs Skins game. But I will be in Las Vegas when we play the Falcons on the Monday Night.

Having been to Vegas before I know I will have no problem watching a primetime game in Vegas as it will be on literally everywhere, but I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions for somewhere awesome to watch the game or where Giants fans might be

Cheers
Really?

in Vegas for football, I'm either at the Mandalay Bay sportsbook or the Westgate (former Hilton).

The Hilton used to be the best sportsbook in Vegas for years, but since it has become the westgate, I don't think it is as good as it used to be.
This is just my preference I haven't been to every sports book

I know there are some Vegas locals on here.

1. Caesar's sports book. Get there early. Comfortable chairs, plentiful waitresses, and good atmosphere with tons of TV's as you'd expect.

2. MGM sports book. See #1.

3. Emeril Lagasse Stadium (need to check the hours), in the basement of the Palazzo, stadium style seating facing a wall of TV's and great food for football
Lagasse's Stadium is probably the best

Couple of other choices that are good (both inside and out) include:

- Beer Park
- Umami Burger
- Mirage
- Mandalay Bay
- Yardhouse

for Caesar's - great atmosphere for the sports book there.
there are two Giant bars in vegas just google them.

way better than a sportsbook. If you are renting a car you can come over and watch with us up in Summerlin 12 miles from the strip .
we have pool, jacuzzi, pot and booze. The house is unreal.
Jonny Fontane's Bar and Grill is one of them

If you want to go the Caesar's route

You better get there early as it fills up before 1PM games even kick off (remember 10AM!).

As FMIC said above, Westgate is excellent as well, but it is not on Las Vegas Blvd. It's by the convention center so you will have to cab/UBER it if you are staying on the strip. Or you can take the rail which runs behind the MGM and a few other major casinos. Drops you off right at the convention center and then it will be about a 5-7 minute walk.

Enjoy! Great place to be during football season.
I used to go to Vegas for the divisional round

of the playoffs every year. Watched every game in the Mirage sports book every year. My favorite spot for games on the strip by far.

The nice thing about Westgate is they open up their movie theater and have all the games on the big screen. You dont have to fight for a seat or show up two hours early to save one.

They usually do giveaways as well and have cheap food readily available. Easily my favorite place to go(also free parking)
With Westgate..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 7/6/2018 12:35 pm : link
off the strip, you don't usually have to deal with the usual tourist Vegas crowd and they do have giveaways and good comps.

When it was the Hilton, if you were in the sportsbook and had any betting slip, you could drink for free. Now, I think it has changed so you get a drink ticket per slip.

But as far as viewing the games - it still is probably the best. Between that and Emeril's. I like the openness of teh Westgate more.

I met the comedian Eddie Griffin in Emeril's sportsbook. Great place.
