Cali is probably your best bet for a great time and hot weather.

I'd also recommend Miami. The nights last forever down there. Plenty of clubs and women.

Which city would be the most fun to go to and why ? I have been to New York in the past. I wanna go to a city where it's always sunny and hot. Any recommandations ? What should be my budget? I plan on staying 4 days .

No no no...

They're not called "Liberals" in Quebec... in Quebec they're called the "Bloc Quebecois"

Otherwise known as seperatists.

I would also recommond Vegas. I've been there quite a few times and it is always a lot of fun. The Fashion Mall is pretty good for shopping and it is right on the strip. The outlet mall is fairly close to the strip. The casinos/hotels also have a lot of good clubs to party at.

You forget he's from Canada, our liberals would be conservatives in Canada.

You won't be able to do all three sports at the same time. Football ends in January and Baseball doesn't start until April. You could catch spring training games in Florida and Arizona in March, they would be relatively cheap although good luck getting tickets for anything at Fort Myers or the Yankee complex.

Downtown Denver is some of the best times I've had. Great pubs, great people, went to see a hockey game, been to a rockies game....and those aren't even my teams.

truth is, had a great time there. great food, great times. Look up Denver, CO.

I agree. Also the cleanest city I've ever been too.

We visited Andrew Jackson's plantation, Chatanooga battlefields (Civil War), Graceland, Sun Studios and had the best ribs ever!!!!

Yeah, spent my college years in TN, it's an underrated state. Every football fan should go to a game at UT at some point in there life, just to be a part of the 100,000+ that they pack in.

Phoenix, AZ is pretty good! Plus, the Cardinals are having a decent season, so if you catch them before the regular season ends, you will probably see a good ball game.

Seriously, if youre into clubbing...Vegas is your best bang for your buck. And you can get a room on the strip for $60 a night on weekdays. I'm going at the end of the month. I'll see ya there!

What are the good clubs there ? What is the dress code for clubs there ? Casual or Classy ? Are you allowed smoking cigars in clubs in Las Vegas ?

Since someone else answered the smoking question... some clubs have dress codes, others technically don't, but will look down at you if you try to walk in wearing a t-shirt/jeans. And then there are some that don't care. So just figure out where you want to go, and dress accordingly.

Jellybeans · 12-17-2008, 05:17 PM

What about cover charges ? 10$ at the door ?

Blu-Ron · 12-17-2008, 05:22 PM

Here's what I found on Travelocity and Expedia for the week between Christmas and New Years. Keep in mind that these are low-end hotels (for the most part). I've stayed at most of them and to be quite frankly...you don't go to Vegas to sleep. So save your money to have fun.

On the strip:

Luxor - $92
Excalibur - $66
Circus Circus - $60
Stratosphere - $68
Tropicana - $52
Flamingo - $93
Imperial - $68
Sahara - $54
Monte Carlo - $104
Treasure Island - $119
Mandalay Bay (our favorite) - $120

Off the strip:

Las Vegas Hilton - $57
Hooters (He-He) - $66

These are rates per night.

I agree about Vegas. They may not have hockey, but they have everything else.
