Only when guests come to town as I spend enough time on the Strip visiting clients and having to dodge the tourists.

I've been residing in Vegas for almost 25 years and I have lost track of how many times I've visited the Strip, luckily for me all my visits to the Strip were pleasant.

I just came back from a week vacation in Vancouver, on my third night while walking with my friend on a street in a nice area of Vancouver, near the Four Seasons Hotel, someone wanted to start a fight with me. My friend and I ignored the guy, a few minutes later he got what he wanted for harrassing another person.

Vancouver as the most livable city in the world, I don't think so, its reputation as far as I'm concerned just went down the drain after that incident. I'm not even going to talk about the riots there!!! Vancouver a classy city, NOT as far as I'm concerned. By the way the food and the service in Vancouver sucked bigtime!!!

We go a couple times per week for shows & dinner. Usually play BJ for an hour or so afterwards.

We probably average 3 times per month to the strip. When we have company we inevitably end up on the strip daily.

That said, we do end up going to Aliante Casino a few times per week for movies, Capriotti's subs, Dairy Queen shakes, Panda, Feast buffet, etc.

When people come from out of town. Even then I try to talk them into Fremont Street instead. More fun, more chance of winning.

That's because you moved to Canada, didn't you?

Once or twice per year, usually for a concert. The strip has turned into a dump.
