Today I’m posting something a little different. I spent the day down on the South end of the Las Vegas Strip and shared some stories and highlights from the perspective as a Vegas resident of nearly 30 years.

This content was really good
FYI James MGM offers 3 hours of free parking for NV residents
The place has sure changed since I was there in 1989 !
Stayed at the Tropicana.
😂😂
Locals in Las Vegas avoid the Las Vegas strip like local in the New Orleans area avoid the French Quarter! And I say this because I live in the New Orleans area! 😂😂
Is cost of living high there?
Some of those restaurants and places on the strip in the giant hotels have got to be expensive
So fun!!
WAIT! Where was that last ice cream (looked like gelato) at? Going to Vegas for my sons 21st birthday next year.
I can't think of anyone better whose opinion I really value and trust to review Vegas tho. I like it. 👍🏼
My Dad lives in Henderson… I need to visit him, soon. ☺️
as someone from georgia.. who has the world of coke… the tastes of the world seems so sad compared to the entire tasting ROOM at the world of coke 😛
As someone is who planning a trip to Vegas this summer, this is wonderful. I will keep this in mind as my trip moves forward. Thank you
That was strangely very entertaining. I think James could make any type of YouTube content and it'd be entertaining lol
That was great. Thankyou!
Drink combos is MDWU
Never been there but our niece and nephew loved it
You know it's important to take a break when you share your break with total strangers. LOL – Thanks, Man. I enjoyed watching. Have a good one.
Thanks for opening my eyes to Vegas! I never been inclined to visit Vegas since I've always been told its just a stripmall lined avenue in the desert but I see that its very modern and hip! Would love to visit someday!
I find that I enjoy more and more the simple and fun style of editing you do as well as your laid-back vibes and topics. I'm not even a Vegas fan and I just watched this all the way through lmao
I've been to Vegas so many times and never once thought that the Coke bottle was more than a gift shop. Next time we're in town, I would totally go upstairs just to try out the different flavors, no matter how crazy they are.
When you were eating at New York New York did you eat at Greensberg Deli? Its my favorite place to get a corned beef sandwich, plus I will be getting one in April during my visit.
Your facial reaction to Beverly from Italy 😂😂😂 made my night. Thank you!
Beverly is absolutely repulsive! My daughter pranked my son and I with it when we went to the Coke factory in Atlanta.
You've become the best tour guide. I've taken many trips & never knew half of what you mentioned. Sorry "Beverly from Italy" was soooo bad. lol!
Everyone I've ever known who's tasted Beverly hated it
Very interesting video and to see some of the sites of Las Vegas. I love your jacket, where did you get it from? The transformer character looked like he had arthritis, the way he was walking.
Many thanks from the UK for sharing this.
I wish Vegas would start doing themed hotels again. They’re fun and interesting. Also wish they’d start building more attraction in the strip like the fountains at bellagio. Now they just build fancy boring hotels.
Great video! I enjoyed it a lot and hope you make more.
I certainly liked to see other spots of Las Vegas! I wouldn't mind seeing more of these kind of sites
Great presentation. I hope you do more like this. VEGAS, Disneyland for adults!
This was great!! Please make one about the old Vegas sign museum and maybe Freemont St. The last time I was out there I went to the Avengers Experience.
Have you thought about testing sink attachment water filters?
Please review the Hydro Jet Power Washing hose thingy from Amazon, its supposed to turn your hose into a power washer but has no electricity connection 😅 I need to know whether it's worth buying to use to clean my car 🤩
What was the “BBQ tasting” soda? He mentioned Beverly a few times but never said the county or name or flavor of the BBQ one. Anyone know???
this was interesting as all heck, very cool
Love this vid, James!! I just moved to the Las Vegas area (from FL), and I'm now looking for places to explore. Yes, even on the Strip lol.
my mom got to vacation there back in the early 90's. the hotel she stayed was imploded. (i forget the nane). i've been close, within 100 miles away vacationing over in SW Utah
Cool. What day of the week is this? I'd like to visit when it's not too crowded and this looks perfect!
One new thing that you can now go to in Las Vegas is Battlebots Destructathon. Although the Battlebots TV show is only filmed two weeks out of the year, Destructathon is a year round live event. It features stock versions of some of the most popular bots on the show, but most importantly it is going to serve as a testing ground for potential and veteran Battlebots World Championship competitors. The real Hydra was spotted at the event competing on one of the days.
I nearly thought he had a Kung-Fu ponytail until I realised it was a wire for his sunglasses. 😆
Didn't James start off this video saying he was showing "hidden gems" and not tourist spots? And then he proceeds to go to the Luxor, NYNY, MGM Grand, and the Coke Store. 🤣
Thought you would show the Burger Bar when you were in the shops between Mandalay Bay and Luxor. When I went to Vegas, I would eat there at least twice. Possibly the best burgers in Vegas. Sounds like Vegas tourism is recovering, but it isn't bringing me back for a while. Like you said, pay alot for parking. I golf in Vegas and it is more expensive than it used to be.
after watching Safiya Nygaard’s double part special on touring the whole strip I was really hoping James would post more Las Vegas content! Love these videos 🪩
Miss living there. Hope to move back soon
South Strip is a lot of fun! I also really like Flyover Las Vegas that’s across from New York New York.
1. you're allowed to enter the building and window-shop without having reserved a room at those hotels?
2. do Vegas residents care that the famous touristy s**t is not in actual Las Vegas but in Henderson/Paradise/Clark county etc?
i want go vegas but hard fine halal food outside malaysia
Looks and feels like living in a themepark.
Clicked for Bumblebee, stayed to look at the cool stuff they have at Vegas.
Vegas is one of my favorite places on earth. Some of my very first memories are there (running around Circus Circus), I've been there WAY more times than I could ever possibly count, I got married there (walked through the drive thru! That broke Corporal of Marines lyfe…hahaha) and the wife and I go there at least a couple times a year. It sure has changed over the years…and not necessarily for the better.
