Sin City Comedy

Sin City Comedy Show plays at Planet Hollywood on a daily basis, right above the main casino.  This is a show that is constantly changing as the performers are touring comedians that vary depending on when you go.  For our performance, we got to see 3 top rate comedians for about 90 minutes, and it was definitely worth our time.  There were also 2 burlesque performers, giving it that true Las Vegas flair.

One negative was the seating.  It's pretty tight in there and there are no tables available to keep your drinks on.  When entering there is a notice that there is a 1-drink minimum, however, thankfully, it wasn't enforced.

This is also a show that's available on "House Seats" often, so you can get in for free if you belong to this club for Las Vegas locals.

The Atomic Testing Museum

An interesting museum, just blocks from the Las Vegas strip, is the Atomic Testing Museum.  This museum focuses on the history of Atomic weaponry in Nevada, which went on from the 1930's all the up into the 1990's.  We found many interesting exhibits showing the progression of Atomic technology along with how popular culture progressed over time.  For anyone with an interest in this type of history, it's definitely a great place to visit and can give you something else to do in Vegas besides the typical Strip tourist items.  However, this doesn't have anything related to the standard Vegas drinking and gambling, so if that's your focus, it isn't worth the visit.

Also, temporarily, they have an exhibit called Area 51, which concentrates on the possibility of if aliens have visited Earth before.  You'll get to see various "evidence" and it's definitely interesting, and amusing if nothing else.
