FFS...
I figured we wouldn't get any controversy to the football question but...
ItsMrAlex2u's anwser was just one word - Hilton. Of the two Hilton hotels, one is known as Hilton Grand Vacations CLub (on Strip), one is known as Las Vegas Hilton (off strip). Am not sure which one ItsMrAlex2u meant but by a stroke of dumb luck the fact that he just stated Hilton and the on strip hotel begins with that word and the off-strip one doesn't I'm going to let his answer stand.

ok - you said earlier it was on the strip in your opinion because it had a monorail stop. Clear therefore that you were referring to the Las Vegas Hilton rather than the vacation club  (PS I would have let it go but you're protesting too much!!!!!!) |
