Are we allowed to tip go-go dancers?

    I remember walking into the LVC Downtown on one of my past trips. It was pretty deserted in there. There was one go-go dancer who clearly wasn't too happy; probably thinking why she has to dance to an empty casino.

    I'm thinking if I tipped her maybe it would brighten up her spirits.

    Do you think they would be offended? I know they tip dancers at strip clubs but the dancers there dance more provocatively whereas the casino go-go dancers dance more wholesomely.

    Anybody ever tip the go-go dancers?

    Yes, you can.

    From what I was told, they make an extra couple bucks per shift for dancing and get to keep all the tips when they are up there.

    I regularly play blackjack at the Golden Gate downtown and routinely tip the dancers in the pit area. Rather than just toss them a chip directly, I give it to one of the pit bosses and he in turn gives it to the dancer. They always give me a big smile/blow me a kiss in appreciation.

    Tip everybody.

    Speaking of which, if you really want to make someone's day... shoot a red chip to the casino employees that empty trash cans, ashtrays, etc.

    I tip bathroom attendants here and there. Seems to make their day since they have a shitty job.

    There is a short list of people you can't/don't tip in Vegas. Off the top of my head, I can't of one. Maybe the TSA agents at the airport.

    I saw a few people tipping the girls at LVC. It was the only place I saw anyone doing it. We played a lot at the D also and I never saw their dancers receiving any tips. The girls at the LVC where grateful, usually blowing a kiss to the tipper.

    One day at the LVC there was a really drunk guy, I mean really drunk, and he kept giving one of the girls chips. He must have given her at least $50 over the course of a few minutes. She had a good shift that day.

    Yep - just give the tip to a pit-critter & tell them that it's for the dancer.

    ...and Mike... Spot On!

    Add in: Cops; WAX bus drivers; Pit bosses; Hosts (although, there are ways to get non-cash tips to PBs & Hosts).

    I've tipped my fair share of dancers at the Pleasure Pit in Planet Hollywood. They always seem to appreciate it

    I always tip 'em. They are working hard, and deserve the recognition.
