Vegas Q&A: Where Should Bachelors Go?
UPDATED: 9:15 a.m. EST March 1, 2004
Question: A few buddies and I will be hitting Vegas in a few weeks. As a group of guys in their mid 20s, we want to hit all of the good topless revues. We are looking for shows on the more explicit side than the artsy side. Can you recommend any good shows? Also, do any of the casinos have any topless bars or lounges? What else are the "must sees" for bachelor-type crowds?

Answer: Explicit probably isn't the best word for the Vegas topless shows. You won't see anything that you don't see on HBO every night. But the racier shows would be Skintight at Harrah's, Crazy Girls at the Riviera, and to a certain degree La Femme at the MGM Grand, although whether the artsy execution is truly racy or not is a matter of opinion.
Shows like Jubilee, Folies, and Splash are more traditional topless showgirl-type affairs; while good for what they are, they certainly aren't stimulating.
The new Cirque du Soleil production "Zumanity" tries to be a sex-filled orgy, but really just comes across as silly most of the time.
If it were up to me, I'd save my money and hit a strip club instead. You'll probably spend about the same amount of money and you'll get much more up close and personal. Sapphire is the largest and one of the nicest, Treasures and Jaguars are the most upscale, Tally Ho and Striptease are the raunchiest (but in a good way).
I'd also be sure to go and hit the night clubs -- Rain and Ghostbar at the Palms and Studio 54 at MGM Grand are the hottest of spots right now.
