"Adult" Advertising: Pains in the ****

  • Some people might not be bothered but besides the magazine stands with magazines featuring sex for sale, it was the 'people' along the pavement that really got on my nerves. My husband who had already visited Las Vegas a couple of months before had told me of them, but seeing them for myself was a different matter. These 'people' stand in lines, whole groups of them with cards featuring the 'people' who were plying their trade. But not satisfied with just standing there they literally jump in front of you and flash the cards in front of your face. In some cases you cant even get passed them but come to an abrupt stop. This totally p****d me off. So much so that it completely got on my nerves, I simply couldnt ignore them like most people were doing, but physically pushed one out of my way and told them they were nothing more than pimps. Dont think they liked it but then neither did I.

    I Love Vegas So Much I Hardly Like To Criticize It But Those Porn Peddlers That Line The Strip In Groups Of Up To 10 Or More Really **** Me Off. Hour After Hour Day After Day They Flick Those ***ty Cards And Magazines Right In Front Of You Every Time You Walk The Strip. We Are In Sin City I Acknowledge And I'm Sure Some Men Do Require The Company Of A Female At Times But These Jerks Try Giving This Trash To Anyone And Everyone Even Women And Couples Which Is Pathetic. Anyway I Think The Strip Would Be Much Better Without These Low Lifes And I Despise Them So Much I Did Not Want To Waste A Photo On Them So I Took One Of The Booths That Line The Strip At Least With Those You Have A Choice If You Want One Without Some Ass Trying To Stick One Up Your Nose.

    If you hear clapping or the sound of someone slapping a stack of papers against their hand, DON'T look at them, or you will find your hands being crammed full of pornographic ads for escort services and strip clubs! If you ignore them, they will not bother you, but if you acknowlegde them whatsoever, expect a handful of smut! Many Las Vegans have fought to have this type of solicitation banned, but to no avail thus far...

    As you walk up and down The Strip at dusk or during the evening you see groups of people standing on the sidewalk slappng packs of cards against their hands. However these cards don't have anything to do with Poker or Pontoon but rather are advertising various adult services, escorts etc.. To avoid being given one of the cards just walk straight past and don't show any signs of interest - quite hard when you first hear the 'slap, slap. slapping' noise and wonder what it is. They generally seem to be offered just to men and if you are walking past as a couple or in a family group they may not bother to offer you one. Although if a man in your group falls behind or goes ahead this may not be the case! Mind you on the crowded sidewalks of Las Vegas there's also the matter of simply trying to avoid and not bump into the people giving out the cards themsleves never mind just avoiding the cards! It is worth being aware of this practice in order to avoid any upset or offence that receiving a card may cause.

  • There are lots of people (men and women) who stand all along the strip handing out cards and papers advertising strippers etc. They are very forward, in that it doesn't matter if you are a family group, they will still push these cards into the males hand. They make a noise by rattling the papers and therefore get your attention. This happens at all times of day. It's very distasteful

    There are any number of people lining the street handing out brochures for escorts, adult shows and anything else they can sell you. Its an inconvenience but is easily avoided. Try a technique I like to call "walking like a New Yorker": walk fast (if you can) and look straight ahead. Most of these people won't bother you. They generally accost the people who pause and look over at them. If they still try to hand you something, just say "no thanks" and keep walking. They don't seem to bother those who appear totally disinterested.

    Don't be lured in to the "free" topless titty joints like Glitter Gulch on Fremont street. The basically pour you two $7 beers when you walk in the door whether you want them or not. I guess if you're REALLY thirsty and are REALLY in need of peeking at some of Las Vegas' finest third-string, day-shift saggy bodies, then by all means knock your socks off...

  • Take the usual common sense precautions that you would anywhere. Downtown Vegas has some dodgy looking characters, stay in the well lit area of Fremont St. Also, there are hundreds of guys on the strip handing out some kind of magazine with porn ads in or something. We didn't realise at first and held our hand out to take one. They are a nusiance but pretty much leave families alone but take note girls, if your husband falls two steps behind you or you drop behind him they will be shoving it in his face.

    snappers are people you try to hand you ads for escort services and strip clubs. they snap their advertising card to get your attention. these people are not dangerous but highly annoying. they line both sides of the strip from mandalay bay to the stratosphere. some can be aggressive. the best way to avoid them is not to make eye contact and move away from them when walking down the strip. the strip also has a number of beggars and street hustlers. again don't make eye contact and refuse to talk to them.

    Maybe it's me, but I'm wondering WHY anyone would bring their adolescent child to Vegas..... Sex is everywhere.
