To those of you who have been to Vegas in the past, what is the best way to buy tickets to Cirque Soleil (sp?)? It seems like "ticket brokers" on the secondary market buy up all the good tickets and try to charge excessive amounts for such tickets.

^ O and its spectacular...

^^ A lot of times the hotel will have deals for their guests, especially in off-peak times of the year...

Its called "O"...pretty damn cool, its at the Bellagio

My other favorite is the Beatles "Love" at the Mirage

As far as getting tickets...we've had good success scalping. Its just like a sporting event or concert, except sometimes the sellers are a little harder to spot. Just look for fat black guys with jackets on around all the major casinos, you should be able to find plenty of seats to most shows. Like any event, the close it gets to showtime, the easier it gets to talk down the price of the seats.

I saw Mystere, which was incredible. I'll be there for "work" for an entire week, so I will most likely try on a weeknight. Unfortunately, I am staying in Caesar's, rather than The Hotel at Mandalay Bay like I did last time. I think I may have trouble buying 10 tickets together though at the time of the show for the other brokers in my office.

"O" is the show I want to see. I'm not a hardcore Beatles fan to justify going to see Love.
