The Casino That Never Sleeps
The New York, New York hotel and casino.  Yes, all those replica skyscrapers contain the hotel rooms where patrons stay.  Nifty concept.  And the casino area is downright scary in how it mimics walking among the real city's landmarks.  The roller coaster embedded in the facade is called the Manhattan Express and I *wish* I could have gone on it.  But I was usually in this area when it was either too early (ride wasn't opened), or I had other activities planned which were offered at specific times.  The only negatives comments I have about this place is that it was way too crowded...moreso than the other casinos, and they had no lower-end minimum wager tables.  Plus, the people just don't react properly when you yell "Yankees Suck!".
