I am going to Las Vegas this weekend and have 2 extra tickets to a concert. I was going to sell them before I go in and I wanted to know if it was legal to do that in Las Vegas?

"Scalping" tickets is illegal in Las Vegas... but the definition of "scalping" is re-selling the tickets "above face value" without being licensed as a ticket broker.
So if you are re-selling the tickets AT face value (as in only asking the price printed on the ticket) that is not considered "scalping" and is therefore not illegal at all.

i used to work at the box office inn vegas and if you're selling it no matter if the price is lower or higher than the original price, we see it as illegal and if the person does not leave even after we warn them, we have to call security on them. however, if you're not directly on site and you don't let security or other casino workers see you, then you should be fine. just don't do it in a very obvious way if you still wanna do it.

It's illegal if you're at the venue. You should sell them on e-bay or a ticket broker (Like stubhub.com).
But if you don't mind the heat you can always stand outside and try to get someone to buy them

Yes it is.................................
Do you want to get a room with a view, some new bracelets and no cable TV for a few nights... They call that the pokie
Cops here are here to protect the interests of the casinos
So do not even try it.
Or you can get the ride in the back of a police car to the jail house
