I started playing a fun, advanced Vegas slot game about eight years ago. The game promised real rewards at various locations around Las Vegas, and at first, most people were skeptical. However, after a few months and actual redemptions, it was clear that My Vegas Slots was legit—Since then, I’ve redeemed all kinds of fun things like tickets to the Bellagio Gallery of Fine Arts, lunch at Nine Fine Irishmen and more.
A few years back, during CES, Playstudios invited me out for an evening with the team. We had dinner in a private dining room at The NoMad Library and got to enjoy a Maverick Helicopter ride over the Las Vegas Strip. Chatting with the Playstudios team was so much fun as a longtime player, and the experience was fantastic.
Exploring Vegas from Above with Maverick
After our dinner, Maverick Helicopters picked us up from Park MGM and took us to the airport. We were treated to champagne in the VIP lounge before boarding the helicopters. I’ve been in one helicopter in my life, and it was as a child in Pigeon Forge—a very different experience! I’m an extremely nervous flyer, so I was super apprehensive (especially because we were sitting right in front, next to the pilot, with wall-to-wall windows).
The flight was actually a lot of fun—the helicopter was way smoother than I expected, and the views were a wonderful distraction!
The flight took us all the way up the Strip, past Fremont Street, and back down the I-15 past Allegiant Stadium.
The night was extremely clear, and there was very little wind (which is kind of rare these days), so the trip was perfect.
After the flight, Maverick Helicopters dropped us back off at Park MGM to round out our wonderful evening.
I think this is the tour we took.
A huge thank you to Playstudios for the experience and Maverick Helicopters for the once-in-a-lifetime experience!
