Solo Traveler itinerary suggestions/feedback?

I'm making a last-minute trip to Las Vegas this memorial day weekend, because life is short. I hacked together a 2.5 day itinerary and would love any feedback or suggestions. I'm mostly into site-seeing, exploring and eating. Not interested in gambling or shows, but down to explore casinos and what-not. I'll be staying at an airbnb around winchester.

Saturday

  • Morning: The Sphere
  • Noon: Grand Canyon Shoppes + Caesars Palace
  • Afternoon: Roam around the Strip (would love suggestions as where to start for this)

Sunday

  • Morning: Arte Museum
  • Noon: Bellagio Conservatory Gardens + Miracle Mile Shops
  • Afternoon: Fremont Street Experience

Monday:

  • Morning: TBD
  • Noon: TBD
  • Afternoon: Flight home

For food, I'm thinking of winging it, but I do want to try Taco El Gordo, Gyu+, With Love, Always, Lotus of Siam and Lardo. Any suggestions that are solo-diner friendly and not-too-long-of-a-line are appreciated.

Any recommendations or feedback would be appreciated as a last minute solo traveler. Thanks!

Shark’s Director of Amateur Scouting on “Best Player Available"

https://open.spotify.com/episode/21De5vu7Zfls1nWgQ2EqkK?si=018ead76e46f4502

On a podcast with Chris Morehouse (Shark's Director of Amateur Scouting), he talked about drafting best player available (29:00). Chris emphasized how the public's consensus may not be what the Shark's list is. He mentioned that BPA is still relative to the team, how you don't want to draft the same player every year, and you're still piecing together a team at the end of the day.

Grier even said that their list was different from the public's ranking last season. Hell, Grier drafted Dickinson over Buium who was the public's consensus best defenseman available. So the sharks' BPA isn't who you think it will be.

I'm pro-Stenberg and ultimately think the sharks will select him, but Reid could very well be the BPA to the sharks. Anyone saying that Reid isn’t remotely a possibility is just closed-minded and impervious to how drafting works.

Point being, unless you work for the sharks, none of you know the shark's BPA is, only the public's ranking.

Give the podcast a listen. It gives good insight on the Shark's drafting philosophy.
