Day-trippers from California
The dealings is so heavy from Southern California that it almost feels like Vegas is sometimes an LA suburb . you may usually spot these Golden State invaders by the wads of hard cash they ’re eager to pass on over to one-armed bandit machines , barman , and whoever is figure out the door at a cabaret . But they eventually get theirs : that Sunday drive back on I-15 is a bitch .
The couple who can’t keep their hands off each other

The tourist who can’t put the camera away
We get it : Las Vegas is full of nerveless stuff . But do you really ask to take a photo of every pendant , decoration , and plant in the hotel lobby ? These are pictures that will never be seen again , and will just waste valuable megabytes until they ’re deleted .
The street performer
Some play music . Others perform deception . But the vast majority just dress up up like Iron Man , Spider - Man , Batman , Michael Jackson , Ace Frehley from KISS , Olaf fromFrozen , or any other ridiculous - looking character you could guess of . The one affair they have in mutual : they all need a dollar . So be ready to pay up – specially if you take a photo with them .
The table of co-workers

These are the people who imagine a pool political party should come with tatty music , gobs of spirits , and as little space as possible for body in lean bathing suits to move around .
The smut peddlers

The Jesus lover demanding you repent
The only person more pesky than the smut packman , this dude thinks you ’re rifle to snake pit , and evidently found the loud megaphone in the Department of State of Nevada to tell you so .
People with luggage on the Monorail
jocularity ’s on them . They suppose this thing goes to the airport .
Baby in stroller
Vegas has a small something for everyone – even infant . But whether they should be out on the Strip being push around in a ambler after 11 phase modulation or not is up for debate .
The old lady glued to the slot machine

Attendant who says the valet lot is full
Except for hotel guests . Or members of the favourite rewards club . Or somebody with a $ 5 bill in their thenar .
The newlywed couple
It ’s ironic that the city where mass seem to struggle the most with monogamousness is also know as the wedding party capital of the world . There ’s no famine of couples on the Strip eager to tie the knot , and , of course , they ’re die to get a picture taken at the " Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas " sign .
Homeless person using their dog to get sympathy
And it totally works .
People in town for the Electric Daisy Carnival

The family of four having dinner at Outback Steakhouse
… instead of one of these40 nifty steak joints , because , well , that Bloomin ' Onion is " pretty hard to pass up . "
Desperate VIP host
He ’s in the lobby and eager to hand over coupons for two - for - one swallow and spare accounting entry to some night club around the turning point . He ’s also probably ask himself how he got stuck doing this in the first topographic point .
The swarm of humans in town for the same trade show
They all have the same laminated pass hanging around their neck , and there ’s one woman for every 14 men in attendance .
The person trying gelato for the first time
It ’s served ineveryhotel lobby , so it must be proficient , right ? You ’ll never go back to regular ice cream again .

Totally needed . bonny price . No complaints .
