Do you remember the scene in "Vegas Vacation" where Clark and Cousin Eddie go to the rigged casino to try to make their money back? They offered games like "Pick A Hand" and "Guess a Number Between 1 and 10".

The Hard Rock is like that -- a billion dollar unregulated carnival midway on Indian land.

I really dislike the hard rock casino. It leaves a lot to be desired. It is smokey, and the clientele are questionable at best in the evenings. Looks like they are casting extras for a rap video or giving away land that has been zoned for trailer parks. If you are asking me if I am judging groups of people by their appearance... In this case yes.

I do want to check out the new Hard Rock Cafe, but only if there is a seperate entrance from the hotel/casino- which strikes me as a "dirtbag disneyland".

Not quite sure if I understand what "TIGHTER THAN TIGHT" means in reference to an establishment, or anything for that matter... but I guess at the ripe old age of 28, I am not down with the lingo anymore.

I have had very different experiences there. I don't live far and have been there often, and I have never seen anything wrong with the clientele.
