With a new year comes new Las Vegas adventures.<\/p>\n

Here’s our thoughtfully slapped-together-at-the-last-minute list of things you simply must to add to your Las Vegas bucket list.<\/p>\n

1. Hug a Lion<\/strong><\/p>\n

We fell in love with the kitties at the Lion Habitat Ranch<\/a>, a few minutes south of The Strip, near the M Resort. The cubs are growing up quickly, but there’s still time to love up on them as part of your Vegas experience.<\/p>\n

2. Spent $1,000 on a Meal<\/strong><\/p>\n

We’re not going to say it again: You only live once. Save up, and when you’re in Las Vegas, do something huge. Sin City boasts some of the most extraordinary chefs and restaurants in the world, so take advantage, even if it’s just that one time.<\/p>\n

It’s not hard to hit that $1,000 mark. Try Joel Robuchon at MGM Grand, Restaurant Guy Savoy at Caesars Palace, Picasso at Bellagio or Aureole at Mandalay Bay.<\/p>\n

3. Get Hitched<\/strong><\/p>\n

Quickie Las Vegas weddings are making a comeback, and Sin City remains the undisputed wedding capital of the world. This might be the year for you to take the leap, do something profoundly stupid and create some memories you’re sure to regret for a lifetime, or at least until your quickie divorce.<\/p>\n

4. Fight a Busker, Become an Internet Sensation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Think about going viral! One of the best ways to do that is to pick a fight with a busker, one of the costumed characters who beg for tips along The Strip or under the canopy at the Fremont Street Experience.<\/p>\n

Just make sure your friends are taping the encounter, and let YouTube do the rest. Oh, important note, make sure to always keep the number of a bailbondsman on you.<\/p>\n
