We were in Las Vegas for New Years and of course we had to go down to the strip to see how crazy it is. We first began the night going to the Rio where this guy was going to jump over 320 feet on his motorcycle. You may have seen it on ESPN. We chose a spot where we could see him go off the jump and then see him land. It was crazy to see him floating in the air and then land his bike safely. After the first jump he decided to do it again..yea we about died...he landed it successful the 2nd time and then called it good. I was glad. I didn't want to see blood and guts everywhere.
So after the jump Sean, me and Dave walked to the strip because they close down all the streets on and around the strip. My parents declined coming with us I was not sure why...but after getting to the strip I realized that they had made the right decision. We were out in front of the Bellagio and there was so many people from the pictures you can see that the streets were full of people. I read in the Las Vegas newspaper that Las Vegas was expecting about 320,000 people coming to the strip. At midnight all the hotels do huge fireworks so it was worth all the drunk, half-naked smoking people around me...If you ever wanna go to Vegas for New Years bring your walking shoes. We walked about 5 miles that night to and from the strip because of all the street closures.
