Now it's been almost three years since my last visit. I miss it a lot, but I decided that out of principle I won't go back until the casinos (or at least some of them) drop this ridiculous money grab they call a resort fee. What a joke. Even the dumps with no spas or pools that are a million miles from being a resort are charging this dumb ass fee.<br /> <br /> They may think they are fooling the public and that people will go back anyway, but that's far from the truth. Sure, some will, but I have many friends and co-workers who have given up on Las Vegas for this very same reason. So If I used to spend about $3000 every visit and I've missed 12 visits because of this, I can't see how they come out ahead. That's $36,000 that's stayed in my pocket or gone to local casinos. That's money the greedy Vegas casinos would've had if they did not insist on resort fees.<br /> <br /> For several years, I went strictly to the Golden Nugget as they were one of the last few &nbsp;casinos that seemed to resist the resort fee. I was quite impressed by that and held the Nugget in high esteem. The day they caved in is the day I stopped going to Vegas. I was very disappointed in them.<br /> <br /> If I win this $300 contest I will use the money to cover resort fees and finally get back to Vegas. If not, I'll just keep going to a local casino.<br /> <br /> It wouldn't surprise me that during the days of $19 rooms and 99 cent breakfast buffets on the strip that casinos made more money than the casinos of today. They had it figured out. Just get people to Vegas any way you could. Almost free rooms and cheap food and people would visit more often and leave all their money behind several times a year. I wonder what ever happened to that sound logic?<br /> <br /> They are not just hurting themselves. How about the airlines, taxis, casino workers, and local restaurants and businesses? Every one is suffering because of their greed. I just laugh when I get emailed all their deals. Sure, here's a great deal on a room for you. Oh yeah! Don't forget the $45 per night resort fee! Some deal that is.<br /> <br /> Go sit on the pointy end of a roulette wheel you losers.
