=E2=80=A6and go somewhere else. ;-)=C2=A0 (I will never understand = the attraction of the Peppermill)

 

Otherwise, Steve=E2=80=99s advice is spot on.

 

I will pile on to the advice about comfy shoes. You won=E2=80=99t = believe how much you=E2=80=99re going to walk.

 

Also, it=E2=80=99s much easier to get a taxi if you leave your hotel = 30 minutes after the show starts and leave the convention before = 4pm-ish. Taxi lines after 5pm can be epic. Also, remember Lyft works = great, as does Uber.

 

Bring cough drops. For yourself and everyone else. The dry Vegas air, = combined with constantly moving in and out of air conditioned spaces, = combined with people smoking, combined with a lot of talking=E2=80=A6 = may be really hard on your throat/voice. As an exhibitor, it kicks my = ass every year. But I think it applies to most = people.

 

The Foundation Room at the top of the Mandalay is my favorite place = for a drink. Firefly is a great, (relatively) inexpensive, off-strip = tapas restaurant.

 

 

Cheers,
