    My boyfriends b-day is the 24th... he's so excited (if this is actually happening)

    I'm always jealous of people who get birthday shows

    They have the best beds... that was the deal breaker for me. Plus the 24th is my boyfriends birthday, so I figured what the hell.
    229 a night is a ripoff.

    will they sell one ticket for all 3 shows or can you buy individual shows?

    I hope they do single tickets as well as packages. Not sure if I can afford packages. I am thinking of doing 1 or 2 at AC and 1 or 2 in NYC.

    Typically there is a single day option, with buying the whole weekends worth being the most cost effective.

    In my experience...

    Borgata -- bar none the best hotel in AC
    Harrah's -- really nice hotel, recently renovated
    Tropicana -- best option on the boardwalk
    Caesar's -- decent, but overpriced for what it is
    Trump (collectively) -- awful
    Wild Wild West -- awful
    Bally's -- okay if you want to see what the 70's were like
    Hilton -- decent

    Honestly, if you can get a good enough rate at Borgata or have a few people with you, do it. The only shitty thing is that with the shows going on there won't be much time to actually enjoy the best of what Borgata has to offer (i.e. several incredible restaurants). However, you'd have access to the best breakfast buffet in AC, which is always a good thing.

    ^^ Thanks for the breakdown; it's been a few years since we've been up there; Borgata was still pretty new. The Taj had an amazing brunch, but it cost more than the room. Need to find time to make it back to Ocean City and Wildwood. The best part is watching my friends try to pronounce Schuylkill. HAHAHAHHAHAHA

    Just stay in on one of the islands to the north or south. DMBzilla is right when he says we're not going to have time to enjoy the casinos and all, so honestly, I think your best bet would be Wildwood. It's only about a half hour out of AC, and the beaches are free. The place gets a bad rap, but the North and South end of the island are extremely nice. Hotels arn't too bad either

    or basically anywhere along the coast within reason driving to AC.

    So funny and so true!
    Stayed here for my birthday with an ex-boyfriend. There was a shower with a glass wall looking out to the living room. You could actually sit on the couch and watch a shower show right in front of you

    And I'm pretty sure you can take the River Line from Cherry Hill to AC. It'd be way cheaper to just get a room in CH instead of AC. It's a little over an hr ride on the river line but well worth it in the cash you'll save

    Are the casinos within walking distance from Bader Field? If NYC doesn't happen a friend and I might just trek to Atlantic City and stay on the outskirts, then park at the casinos for the shows.

    nowhere near as bad...a little shady near the taj/resorts/caesars area but it's incredibly nice and safe in the marina where harrah's and the borgata are
