My experience with Las Vegas is that you don’t wander off the street by a block and you take the bus to Old Las Vegas.

The bus is only safe if you are a hood rat. Otherwise, take an Uber. Also, don’t take a cab as you will likely get clipped. [I lived in Vegas for over a decade and a half]

Yes, I would probably agree now that I’ve been to Las Vegas.

I have a funny story about a cabbie customer getting clipped.

We used to have an airport that was almost downtown. One customer booked a room at the hotel and he was told that the hotel was next to the airport. So, they got off the plane and called the cab. They told the cab to take them to the hotel and the cab drove them all around the city, charging something like $60, when it should have been about $5 due to the initial charge.

The cabbie dropped them off and they stormed into the hotel and complained that they paid $60 bucks for a cab ride when they were told that it was very close.

The clerk took them outside and pointed at the airport, which was only about a block or two away from the gate.
