Just an FYI.

I have been to two concerts in Allegant stadium and it is typically a lot of walking for anyone going. Uber will get you fairly close but you will still have to walk 1/4 to 1/2 a mile.

Your other option will be to take the tram or public transportation to Mandalay Bay and walk from there. Either way, have your comfortable shoes on.

Considered it, but plane tickets are a little pricey if I'm only going for a day or two.

I'm a single dad and broke. If I didn't have a 16 yo on my payroll, I'd be all over watching the Ags in Vegas. I've never been there in the winter.

I got two littles on the payroll. I can do it, rather have them succeed rather than waste time and money going to Sin City.

I'll be watching though!

Yes, Easy to get there.

Take the Strip monorail down to MGM Grand,
Then cross the street (Las Vegas Blvd) to NY/NY Casino
Take the tram from there down to Mandalay Bay.
Take the escalator to the first level backside casino exit and walk right over to the stadium on the highway overpass.

Or just stay at Mandalay Bay, Delano, or if poor, Luxor. If you do this, you can eliminate all the other crap you said.

Yes, two days after the game. Best poker tourneys are at the Venetian instead of the Wynn during that time. Surprising

We asked Texas Aggies nationwide, "Are you going to see Texas A&M play USC at the Las Vegas Bowl." And the survey said "No".

Just kidding, don't stay at Excalibur.

She was great at the rodeo last year.

No. Who cares?
Even the players don't care, many are bailing out.

Only playoffs matter. Not some piddly bowl.

100%

This is the only non-playoff bowl I would be interested in attending. For that very reason.
