Fan expo questions

[KTKRUKO44]

So i plan on surprising my wife with a trip to vegas over memorial day weekend when the fan expo is. so im looking for advice from people who went to last years. where to stay, how much more was vip and was it worth it. things like that. any help is appreciated. thanks

Great thread, I'm probably going to hit the fan expo this year too and would love to hear from those who went last year.

Make it easy and stay @ Mandalay Bay, if its too much then try Luxor next door or NYNY.
The VIP has not gone on sale yet, but Rachel who runs the UFC Fight Club said there will be fewer passes than last year, cost is also rumored to be $500 a ticket. If you want autographs guaranteed then buy it, if you want to wait in line and hope to get an autograph then just do regular admission.

But this time around I don't think its going to be as busy with tourists because it does not have UFC 100 based around it, but it does have Rampage/Evans & Griffin/Little Nog most likely.
There will also be signings around town, Affliction Store @ Hard Rock Hotel, Tapout Booth on the strip, Punishment store @ Hooters, plus whatever else comes up.

What do you mean by "it does not have ufc based around it"?

[JRsDugout]

Opps Typo, I meant UFC 100 based around it.

Wow! If VIP is $500, how much is Ultimate VIP going to cost!? :S

The wife and I are going regardless. Last year's Expo was AWESOME !

Now they are saying lesnar might be back for ufc 114. Dont know what i will be able to afford. contemplating whether to go to the fight and just do the generic expo pass or not go to the fight and do the vip pass. I am leaning toward going to the fight since i have never been. What is a decent seat going to cost me, and is it worth it to become a fight club member?

[JRsDugout]

I would not hold my breath for Lesnar @114, they said summer, and he's supposed to fight the Mir/Carwin winner unless that person is injured then it would be the Velasquez/Big Nog winner, so I'd say Julyish for Lesnars return.

can't wait to go to this fan expo this year, can't quite affors these $500 tickets, but will pay for the cheap 2 day pass, and then crash at my little brothers in vegas, and just hope for the best, will most likely continue my collection of signed ufc dvd covers and round 2 trading cards, and will probably buy a pair or 2 of ufc fighting gloves. good luck to everybody who goes
