Question Posted Wednesday November 17 2010, 4:01 pm
Going to Vegas for 5 nights on Dec 15 staying at the Mirage on one of the top floors in a very nice 1250 sq ft suite. Just Google Mirage Tower Suite and you'll see (look at the Mirage site, not the older pics since they're out of date).
Want to throw a sick party with fun people in the suite one of the night's that I'm there and am trying to figure out how to do it since I don't know anyone in Vegas.
Wondering if I like printed tickets for a party and handed them out for free admission? What would people think? Would they show?
Assuming that people would show (maybe like 5% of the people that got tickets?), then the question is: how to deal with the first people that show up? I mean, once there are people there and the room's not empty, it'd be OK. It'd look like a party. But the first people to show are going not see a party and it is going to be awkward.
Any advice? Oh, and it's on a floor with a private elevator, so that's a problem. I'll have to give out the code for people to get up there. I'm sure that the hotel management is not going to like that.
Is there a site where I can find other people traveling to Vegas around the same time? Maybe drum up some interest ahead of time?
Additional info, added Wednesday November 17 2010, 10:52 pm: Two people have answered, and I appreciate their concerns, but they did not answer the question.
I did not ask "Is it a good idea to throw a party in Vegas and invite people I don't know."
I'm not going to be mean and give them low ratings. Really just want to delete their replies and get on with seeking an answer.
If you have any ideas how to meet a bunch of people that want to have a sick late night party in Vegas, let me know.
Please STOP responding with advice not to throw the party. Any more such replies that don't answer the question will get low ratings.. Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?

If you're going to spend a lot of money at that hotel gambling anyways, go to guest services and speak to a host and they can set you up with someone that can round up other guests from the hotel. That way you're not having random strangers off the street destroying the room and ripping you off. Good luck. [ julie75's advice column | Ask julie75 A Question ]

Guess what happens if someone trashes the place which is a big possibility or breaks something expensive? Regardless of who did it you'll foot the bill for it.
It's not a good idea to give out tickets to strangers or anyone buying to a party in a hotel suite. Can you imagine how many people would show up from all walks of life? If any of those people brought drugs and your party was busted up by hotel security or cops you get charged along with them.
Furthermore, if anyone was assaulted physically or sexually that's on you as well or if anyone overdosed. It can happen so I'm putting it out there. Party with people you know in Vegas.
Also, the hotel will and can throw you out in a heartbeat for noise at night or bad behavior and will not take kindly to people handing out a private buzzer code for the elevator.
Those elevators are locked for a reason. The hotel may have high-profile guests on other floors that could in fact require the security they're trying to uphold. They can get you charged with just about anything too.
Do yourself a favor and don't do this. If you have to party do it with people you know and split the costs of the suite so you avoid major headaches. This right now is so not a good idea and I think you wanted us to confirm that by writing in.
NinjaNeer answered Wednesday November 17 2010, 6:46 pm: I would advise against that.
Strangers who show up to parties tend to get rambunctious and loud, break things, and just generally cause trouble. I have seen a bunch of cases even just around home where people throw parties, strangers show up and the night ends in destruction with the police being called.
Keep in mind that you'll be in a hotel. You will be responsible for any damages incurred, so unless you're loaded, you might not want to be responsible for some idiot breaking a TV or a window. You will also be responsible for the behaviour of any guests. This means that if people are being loud and vomiting in the hallway, the hotel may just kick you out (then they'll send you a cleaning bill!).
