 | |  |  | Places to Avoid: Sirens of TI | Tip Rating:      |  |  | |  |
Originally, Treasure Island had a really cool pirate show, where pirates fight against the Britts. However, the show was changed last summer, which reopened October 26, 2003. This show is the worst show I have ever seen anywhere! There are not enough negative words to describe this show. Treasure Island tried to add sex appeal to their show, but what they did was ruin the entire show altogether. Pirates battle (if you call it that) against the Sirens (from Homer's: The Odyssey). We are not talking about awesome sword play, but more like carefully clinging swords together in a gaylike fashion. There are a few special effects here and there, but not enough to make a difference. After the battle is over, all the characters bust out with some type of poorly choreographed dance routine; which they dance to some terrible loud music; which is played by one of the Sirens on the steal drums. Just about the entire time I was there, I was thinking to myself, "I can't wait for this show to be over," which never seemed to end. And the worse part is, once you start watching, there is no way of escape. Everyone was packed into the show like sardines or fans at a Mexican soccer game (you get my point). And once the show was over, mass chaos in trying to get free. It must have taken us 20 minutes of pushing, kicking, screaming, and farting, to go 100 feet. Luckily I had my two-year old son in a stroller to run people over with. Do yourself the biggest favor and skip this one. And don?t go just so you can write your own Virtual Tourist page. To make matters worse, Treasure Island took down their most famous skull & crossbones sign and changed it with a digital screen formed together by the lowercase letters of "t" & "i." This is another big mistake, because you can hardly make out what's on the screen. I?ll bet some people are going to loose their jobs over these new disasters. In conclusion, don't go!!! However, if you somehow feel compelled to go, the show times are as follows: 5:30pm / 7pm / 8:30pm / 10pm ? 7 days a week Leave a Comment Phone: (702) 894-7111Website: http://www.treasureisland.com/pages/ent_sirens.asp

 | |  |  | Places to Avoid: The Buffet at "Terrible's" | Tip Rating:      |  |  | |  |
Thankfully I can say that I have never been to eat at the buffet at Terrible's, but I have done lots of research into web sites, which many people have left feedback regarding their visit. They have said that the school cafeteria is much better and that you are better off going to McDonalds, which actually there is one located inside Terrible's. Some said, "The name speaks for itself." Another person said, "They must have come up with the name of the place after an eating in the buffet." If you couldn’t careless about what food tastes like, then you will probably want to visit here, because there prices are quite reasonable. If you are going to gamble with your life at Terrible's, then you will want to get the best offer. In the Entertainment Book, there are "3" buy-1-get-1-free coupons. Here is the following prices of the buffet: ~ Breakfast: $4.99 (7am - 10am) ~ Lunch: $6.99 (11am - 3pm) ~ Sunday champagne lunch brunch: $8.99 ~ Dinner (Thursday): $12.99 (4pm - 10pm) This is a seafood brunch! ~ Dinner (Fri. - Wed.): $9.99 (4pm - 10pm) Terrible's is located at 4100 Paradise Rd. on the corner of Flamingo Ave. & Paradise Rd., on the east side of Las Vegas Blvd. Its not to far from the strip. ~ Ezekiel 16:27 ___________________ Leave a Comment Phone: (800) 851-1703Website: http://www.terribleherbst.com
