WHO HAS TIME TO GAMBLE? Over 35 million people visit Las Vegas each year, but only 9% of them list gambling as the primary reason for their trip.

Look inside to find: Outstanding Restaurants - Treat yourself to a gourmet meal in the restaurant of a celebrity chef, or sample some of the local favorites. World Class Entertainment - Enjoy some of the biggest names in music and comedy, or marvel at the most elaborate production shows in the world. Spectacular Shopping - Experience hundreds of stores from the legendary names in fashion, or grab a souvenir from the world's largest gift shop. Endless Activities - Live without limits in the city that has it all, with enough golf courses, museums, sightseeing, thrill rides, luxurious pools, decadent spas, and sizzling night life to fill a dozen vacations. We chose the 101 Things in this book based upon the unscientific standard of "coolness." We're not saying that The Fonz would have enjoyed everything in the book, but if a guy can jump his motorcycle over a shark, he can probably appreciate a volcano that explodes every hour on the hour.
