My girl wants us to go to vegas sooo bad. I don't gamble, so what else is there to do that has everyone so excited about it?

www.lasvegas.com is your best bet to look around. You don't have to be a gambler to enjoy Vegas. I go every year, and I don't gamble.

I live in Las Vegas. Feel free to email me if you have any questions. :)
I would recommend renting a car and going for a drive through Red Rock Canyon. If you love the outdoors and love hiking or rock climbing, this is a great place to be! It's about a 20 minute drive from the Las Vegas Strip.
Hoover Dam is worth seeing. There are a lot of photo opportunities there. You can pay (I think it's like $12 per person) to go on a tour of the Hoover Dam.
If you like Ghost Towns, there is a really cool one in a city called Nelson, NV. You'll need a rental car to get there. They have filmed many movies here, 5000 Miles to Graceland is one of them. There is a mine that is still pretty well-kept to see. They also have a crashed airplane still there from a movie that was filmed. Also, if you keep driving down the highway past Nelson, you'll find a nice little hide-a-way... Mojave Lake. :) It's beautiful and if you don't mind a little cliff to hike down & up, it's really nice to put your feet in (or swim if it's not too cold).
Good luck, have fun. There's a lot more to do in Vegas than go to the casinos... trust me!

That's ok. Last time I went to Las Vegas I didn't gamble. I go for the magic shows. There are a dozen different magics shows there. There are several Circue Du Soleil shows. There's a cool water fountain show. There are a couple of cool observation towers, one of which looks like the Eifel Tower. There's a driverless passenger monorail. There's a big Star Trek attraction. There are a bunch of smaller attractions, like some lions sitting around in the MGM Grand. Just walk the strip and enjoy the sights.

Nobody has mentioned the Fremont Street Experience..... Well worth the trip downtown to see, as well as visit the older casinos, like the Golden Nugget and the Four Queens, just to name a few.

Are you kidding me! You will never be bored in Las Vegas. Not only is it affordable, very luxurious and full of activities, you don't have to gamble or have a lot of money to have a great time.
There are tons of things to do. Here is a list of free attractions.

Where else but America's Adult Playground can you go to forget your daily routines, get up late, play late, eat, drink and do whatever you please? Vegas! Even for non-gamblers it's a great place to visit with plenty to do. As long as you budget appropriately, you'll be fine. Check out the websites below and find out for yourself. Then go and enjoy!

I've never been there...but I've heard there are a lot of shows to go and see. Such as magic shows, comedy shows ect..If you are into clubbing I'm sure there would be clubs there.
