It will be one big celebration all the way to Buffalo Bill's & Whiskey Pete's (a well known haunted casino). "Whiskey Pete" used to own a filling station in this remote desert outside of Las Vegas. As a side business, Pete sold moonshine, earning him his nickname. He was a cantankerous old miner who died in 1933…though his spirit seems to live on. His body was buried in a secret, unmarked location in the desert sands, until it was accidentally dug up during the construction of the monorail that connects the two casinos. His remains were then relocated to a cave (the one where he made his hooch) in a nearby hill. Ever since then, his ghost watches (while smoking a pipe) over those who gamble in his casino. Many people have also reported finding their cars’ empty gas tanks filled up overnight in the parking lot! Also, the Bonnie and Clyde bullet-riddled "Deathmobile" is on display in the casino. Some folks also believe that the famed bank-robber, Clyde Barrow, haunts this building (especially the area near the gruesome display) as well.

After boarding the bus it takes three to four hours of continuous party, we arrive at casino or shops and stay for at least 7 hours, we board bus to come back by 7:00pm. By the time we come back everyone is usually pooped out so we watch dvd movies, or we can continue the party. We should arrive back home between 11:00 and midnight, totally exhausted, but Happy.
