Wow! Go here and forget the over-priced strip!!
We went to Fremont on our last full day in Vegas. As it turned out, it was the BEST time we could imagine, and you could not find a pricy restaurant/store around (thank goodness). The light show is nothing like we have ever seen again. The casinos had people standing outside quick to offer Mardi Gras beads to entice you inside. Overall their slot machines paid quite a bit more than anything we experienced on the strip. The free drinks keep coming (they want you to get drunk so you spend more LOL) and you can buy a "football" filled with your favorite alcoholic beverage. If you're someone who would rather skip the uptight, overpriced atmosphere of the strip, then this is the place for you. Busing was fairly easy to get back and forth to Fremont, and we definitely want to visit again.
