Las Vegas Mini Gran Prix

Ok, so I got invited to a birthday party at the Las Vegas Mini Gran Prix. I have never been there, drove by it a few times over the years but never stopped. Lots of families there. Very busy parking lot. Kids running wild. So I go inside to see where the birthday party was. Find it. Now it's time to explore. First you need tickets. Ok so you go to the cashier to purchase tickets. $6.50 a ride or buy five or more tickets and pay & $6.00 a ride or $18.00 an hour for unlimited rides. So you think that's the best deal right, $18.00 for an hour. NO!! You wait in the long lines for 15 minutes to get on a ride. So you only get to ride 4 rides in an hour. Not really fair! Ok if you purchase 4 rides at $6.50 per ticket you pay $26.00 for the hour. However tickets don't have any time limit on them. You have to use them that day but no time limit outside of hours of operation. So you tell me which is better. I have to say that the go-karts are the best! You have to watch out for crazy drivers, hey just like in real life! Anyway don't pay hourly. And watch where you sit because they will just come by and take your drinks on you when you are not looking. Trying to make room for the next person. There is no all you can drink. You pay $5.50 for a pitcher of soda. $6.00 for pizza. What a deal. Not good pizza, crust on the bottom wasn't cooked enough. Some spices in the sauce. I don't know missing something totally in the pizza. A pitcher of soda, you get about 4-16 ounce glasses. Not bad. But it's crazy as heck in there. I don't know how they do it. Complete chaos. Don't go without aspirin in tow!
