You know you've been in Vegas for a long time time when:

1.You are visiting another state and the bartender says "last call!" and you look at your companion and say, " That's a real thing?" I've only heard of last call in songs.

2.You remember trying to get a fake ID so you could get into the Shark Club

3. Someone tells you your favorite sports team won the game and you reply, " Yeah, but did they cover the spread?"

4. You say things like, "Dang, I wish it would cool down to 103 or so."

You see two women walking stark naked in your neighborhood, and you don't even flinch

You see a tv show or movie made in LV and you recognize the carpet where it was filmed.

LOL! Or you watch "Con Air" and laugh at how they get from Mccarran to Fremont and back to the strip in such record time.

I was watching an episode of the TV show Angel (spinoff of Buffy the Vamp Slayer) and they were in Vegas. They were at the Tropicana and being chased. They ran for about 30 seconds and were on Fremont Street. Before I had been to Vegas I never would have thought about how ridiculous that is!

You walk into a hospital and ask, "Where the video poker machines?"
