Why can't they do this **** a week or two early. It's way too much to book a flight from Detroit to Vegas the day before you want to leave.

When did you get your deal(weeks ago)? And how did you go about getting it? Next time I go to Vegas for a fight I'd like to get some discounts.

Exactly. I play at the Horseshoe casino a couple hours from my house a few times a month. I never pay for a room there, and as long as I stay at a Harrah's casino, I'll never pay for another hotel room in Vegas, either.

I've got 7 days in Vegas booked, and we only had to pay for the flight (which is freaking expensive in itself).

Yeah, I understand that but I think it's dumb. MGM can track how tickets are selling and a few weeks before the fight they should know about how many they have left to sell or giveaway. They should be cutting deals the moment they realize that they aren't going to achieve a certain number. These last minute deals are only good if you live a state or two away. I'm sure the MGM would like my 400 dollars but since they decided to wait till now they can't have it. It makes sense to cut deals a bit earlier.
