Young People Eating and Drinking Their Way Through Vegas
In 2013, Vegas-goers were younger and spent more money on food and drink than gambling, according to the Associated Press.
The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority released a 2013 visitor profile Tuesday, revealing the average age of Vegas visitors is under 46—that’s four years younger than in 2009. These travelers spent the majority of their cash on food and drink, equating to an average $279 per four-day stay.
We saw evidence of this on Twitter, of course. Here’s what the young folks are eating and drinking in Vegas these days.
