I've been to Vegas when it was 116 ... either stay in the Pool or stay in the Casino

Or can stand in the air conditioned jet streams of air they had as you entered Fremont Street Casinos; then an ice cold Heinekens from Binions for 50 cents; play single deck blackjack; 5 dollarsa a hand; suck up as many free drinks as you can...

Clark County fire personnel treated about 200 people for heat-related nausea, vomiting and fatigue Friday afternoon and evening at the Vans Warped Tour, an eclectic outdoor music festival at the Silverton Casino off the famous Strip.

Wasn't bad at all... the people that visit here don't know how to act in the heat.

Sitting outside at the pools getting drunk on alcohol and not drinking any water... walking the strip with those huge alcoholic slushies and not drinking any water.... not covering their skin or wearing a hat and not drinking any water.....

DRINK WATER and keep your skin covered until its night-time... then drink alcohol..... I recommend drinking a bottle of water for every 2-3 alcoholic drinks at night, and 2-3 bottles of water for every 1 alcoholic drink during the day if you HAVE to drink

The Vegas heat is talked about as though its the worst on the planet............numerous states in the U.S. way worse..............again, Vegas was beautiful yesterday..................................anyone having problems with the heat yesterday in Vegas needs a complete health checkup immediately.

Is it any wonder you're the top clown in this forum?

P.S. Rhetorical question if you didn't know it.

Phoenix, Vegas, etc. All those people living in the middle of the desert, what do you expect?

JackStraw77 · Jun 29, 2013

It's not the heat, it's the lack of humidity. Sorry, had to post this.

Porcupine · Jun 29, 2013

humid places, I live the dry heat of Vegas. I've walked downstrip at 1pm when it was 110 and it was nice. As others said, most of the tourists that get sick don't drink enough water

Do you actually think that those of us that live here don't expect it to get hot in the summer?? it gets hot here and we expect it to...and deal with it accordingly..no big deal..once it gets past 108-110 who gives a fuck how hot it gets..you can't tell the difference..in the desert, we put up with 100 degree from May-Sept and have the best weather in the country the rest of the time..

Besides, it only gets that hot in the afternoon. Evenings are in the 90's. With low humidity that is nice. Mornings in the 80's.

In the East it gets below freezing and stays that way for months. not to mention the wind or the times it gets below zero or below zero with wind.

Cry me a river. They need to come climb in an attic in Alabama in July when it is 80% humidity. They will be crying to go back to Vegas.

Tons of homeless living in tents/under tarps in Vegas...must be brutal.

Amazing how many line the road just North of downtown.
