    Has anyone heard of any casino events for final four weekend? We got mailers for watching parties for sweet 16 but nothing for the final four. I'm sure its because we already booked on another offer. In a related question, would it be bad form to ask my Caesars host for seats at Caesars book if I am staying at Paris? I will be playing some at Caesars, and its not like I am asking for fb or freeplay...

    I have never received any mailers for final four weekend events. It seems there are less visitors with each successive week of MM.

    We've been in Las Vegas for Final Four weekend and it's nowhere near as busy as opening weekend. I would be surprised if any casinos actually did anything beyond offering a few drink specials in the sportsbook.

    The final four isn't that crowded. You can probably get a seat if you get there early.

    I have been twice now for the Final Four. In my expereince is has not been to busy, haven't seen the casinos do anything special. the books do get pretty busy right before game time. I would recommend getting to the book atleast an hour before tip-off if you want a seat.

    Other than that, have a great time and make sure to bet the over. It has never let me down.

    Thanks for the input everyone! I was assuming it was going to be busy as all of the hotel rates were CRAZY that weekend. I do see however that they are also having a Michael Jordan golf outing and the country awards that weekend as well.

    I don't bet sports but the bf does...I'll pass along the tip on the over! lol

    Plus thats the start of the Broadcasters Convention, which packs Vegas. That whole week is higher priced than any normal week in Vegas.

    Agreed with above, I was there for Butler vs Uconn two years ago and expected the place to be packed. It was also the start of the broadcasters convention as well as the Country Music Awards. I really expected to see a lot of folks after the awards on that Sunday but the casinos were dead late at night. We ended up eating and watching the game at the old burger bar place in the Flamingo and it wasn't even full! Very surprising to me!
