Dan, Matt, and Burt plan a trip to Las Vegas and leave it to chance when determining where to stay. They put the town’s weirdest hotels on a wheel, and spun it to see where the gang would lay their heads each night. Hotels were chosen for consideration based on the likelihood that when you see them in booking engines you asked yourself, “What the hell is that place?”
This episode previews the weird hotel, and includes all the wheel-spinning action that determined who would stay where during our dog days of August quest into the broiler known as Vegas.

So many weird hotel choices, and so little time. And so little desire to stay at some of them… but you should.
The standard double at the Ahern has been given a name that adequately captures its essence.
If you stab someone to death in an Ahern bathroom, nobody’s going to notice the blood.
The Ahern offers a full slate of exciting entertainment including “The Razzle Dazzle of Music.” The production values put the emphasis on value!
The Downtowner Hotel has rooms with bunk beds. How many Vegas hotels do you know like that? Maybe because cramming a bunch of drunk dudes into one room isn’t such a hot idea.
The Downtowner promises six exciting holes on its mini-golf course tucked into the center of the property. A perfect way for those drunk dudes sharing the bunk bed room to get some fresh air and puke.
Guests at the Serene Hotel can spend hours in the lobby, sitting on this sofa, starting at the vending machines.
The Serene Hotel offers an all-you-can-eat feast each morning that may include up to three (3) steam trays. Of course, it ain’t free.
Guest of the Serene Hotel have told TripAdvisor that maybe the hotel isn’t quite as nice as they were expecting.
“We have a winner!” says our wheel of misfortune. But, do we really?
Deluxe is a word that could potentially be used to describe the “Deluxe King” room at the Silver Sevens.
The Silver Seven Hotel invites you to indulge at the “Seven Sins Bar.” We can’t remember; is loneliness one of the seven sins?
The Silver Sevens has decided to leave the cooking to the professionals. Its only dining option is a Denny’s.
Spin the wheel? Where will it land? In the penthouse or the outhouse?
We don’t expect this view from our very cheap Fountainebleau deal, but we sure hope there’s this many gew-gaws that we can sneak into our luggage.
While we definitely won’t be gambling in the Fontainebleu’s high limit salon, we certainly will be relieving ourselves in its bathrooms.
We’ll also be relieving ourselves here, in the Fountainebleau’s expansive pools.
