I proposed to my wife in Vegas in 2004. We stayed at Mirage and they upgraded my room to a suite at the 2nd highest floor. I will never forget.

I always loved visiting the mirage when I'd go to Vegas. The volcano show is iconic. I hate to see this one go.

I haven't been to Vegas in some time, but it seems like all the new casinos opening are super sterile and lame. When I go to Vegas I like that cheesy over the top touristy shit with the lights and the fucking pirates and all that kind of stuff. It's part of the charm.

I don't go to Vegas to hang out in plain square buildings with slot machines in them.

I got stranded in Vegas during Hurricane Sandy and spent 5 days at the Mirage waiting for my flight back to Philly to be rebooked. They upgraded my room and gave me free WiFi for the entire stay. It was a good time.
