Alright, I'd do Vegas as long as I have enough moral support to keep me from "goin Nicolas Cage." I've been afraid to go back since that movie (and my divorce).

I like the Idea of Oakland, that way I can sleep in my own bed. Otherwise I like Vegas....There is no way you can pass out in the snow, and if you act like you are loosing they bring you FREE booze.

Did I mention free booze.

Vegas, yes! Goddamn Vegas! No last call. I've had nothing but F. Scott times there. Must we drink so much? Yes!

New Orleans has no set closing time. Each bar is required to shut its doors for a given amount of time during each 24 hour period to "clean up." (Not that they even throw you out then.) But yeah, the bars decide when to do this. You can have go-cups, open paper, styrofoam, or plastic containers; just no glass on the streets. I have never seen anyone hassled for drinking from a bottle in a wino bag. Also, Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop is in the French Quarter.
I would recommend winter or spring months, but not Mardi Gras. Rooms are booked too far out in advance. Plus it's a pain in the ass, lots of amatuers, hard to even use the bathroom, and the prices all get jacked up. Next year Mardi Gras is held during the two weeks ending up to Tuesday, February 24.
There is a lull between that and Jazzfest, which is nice, but once again outrageously expensive.
Here's a link to a good article, but I resent the tits for beads misconception. It's not a New Orleans tradition; it's a relatively recent phenomenon with drunken sorority sluts gone wild. Although, I did once flash the Quincey Punx when they were throwing beer bongs from the stage. And they threw me one, too. :p

Resent beads for tits? or resent the suggestion beads for tits or tits for beads is a tradition? Personally, I think if it isn't a tradtion, it should be.

I've not been to New Orleans. Looks like a great place. One where bars can be strumbled into and out of by merely following a drunken man's walk.

Las Vegas is good, great for parties, great for drinking. Unfortunately, the death marches between Las Vegas casinos can be too much a sobering experience. Good for party, only OK for drinking.

Tokyo, Japan is a drunkard's paradise and just might meet any requirement that the location be centrally located; that is, participant's travel distances may result in minimum variance (albeit maximum average).

I like Fullerton, California. A city with 116 years of history. The linked article hints at Fullerton's night life but doesn't do our Down-town the justice it is due. Fullerton is small but has the night life of a large city. I love Fullerton!
