Here's proof Vegas is not too expensive...

We-who-love-Vegas know that it's dirt cheap right now to visit, but there is still a bit of a sting in the hubbub a few months back, about Las Vegas being too much of an upscale destination for business meetings in these cash-strapped times.

The Convention bureau is busy placing articles about why Vegas is a great business destination, and I decided to do my bit too.

Here's proof Vegas is not too opulent:

From the Times of India, a story about a doggie boutique hotel in Los Angeles and in it:

"At 110 dollars a night for the top room, some rates at the sleek establishment outstrip those found at popular tourist destinations. Las Vegas's MGM Grand recently offered rooms at $52 a night."

If it's cheaper to stay at the MGM Grand than to board your dog, then it must be time to place your convention in Las Vegas. Yes?
