I attended the game last season and had a great time
Allegiant is a fantastic stadium. I got there when gates opened which is like 2 hours before kickoff which gave me time to walk around the stadium and watch some warmups Rideshare from the Strip is super easy. Drop-off point is just a short walk through some colorful "tailgating" (why pay for a Cypress Hill concert when you can just hit the Allegiant parking lot on game day?) It is walkable from the strip, especially towards the Mandalay Bay side. I stayed at the Cosmo further up and walked back which took about an hour so doable but I'd probably just get an Uber next time I think I monitored tickets for a few weeks before springing for what I felt was the softest kick in the nuts, so no real advice there There were KC fans everywhere along with a mix of every other fan base, which was kind of wild, so every place felt like a Chiefs friendly establishment Sat next to big dude from Compton at the game who was all bark, no bite. My wife saw him digging in his teeth after a hotdog and offered him a flossing pick and we were pretty much best friends the rest of the game Seriously thinking about doing it again this season |

Horseshoe is a cheap option for sleeping and you can walk right into Paris for a superior casino experience and food

Stadium opens 2 hours before the game and 3 hours for premium tickets. Cheap cost I would recommend staying at the Luxor. You want to splurge the Venetian is very classy. Tickets prices can sway. Lucky for you the Chiefs are winners which is a draw for NFL fans. Unluckily for your pocket book this will cost you more. I sell my tickets on NFL ticket exchange/ticket master. |

Tickets are pricey. I went last year and stayed downtown to save some bucks. Ubered to the Mandelay for breakfast then walked across the bridge for the game. After the game is chaos. We walked for an hour and had dinner before you could Uber out of the area. The traffic was still affected by that f1 race though. Hopefully it’s better this year.

A lot of the other stuff has been covered here but I'll echo that it's a great stadium. I flew in and out same day for the game last November and that was really easy. And then was back for the Super Bowl which was a completely different experience as they basically took over the entire parking lots around the stadium for official tailgates, security, etc.
But yeah, really easy to get to from the strip via the monorail to the Mandalay Bay and then walking from there. I don't care for Vegas much at all, but it's a pretty unique Chiefs experience and the polar opposite of the Oakland Coliseum. |

So I'm guessing you never got to experience eating at the Denny's in front of the coliseum on game day? Or take a stroll down the road after a night game?

After confirming 100% refund cancellation policy of the hotel of your choice, book every weekend of the football season right now before they announce games. When the schedule comes out, cancel all but the weekend you want to go. It worked for a buddy of mine last year and hes certain he saved a boat load of money.
Also do the mob museum tour |

My guess is the schedule comes out next Thursday btw. It's typically been the Thursday in the second week of May or a couple weeks after the draft.
