Sizing up Vegas

The letter writer [“Vegas Animals,” June 14] who bashed the article “Stroller-friendly Vegas” [May 31] needs to realize what Vegas is all about.

Vegas is not a meeting place for Sunday worshipers, nor is it an extension of higher learning (except if you are learning how to count cards).

Vegas is everything one can think of that is slightly mischievous, on the verge of being immoral and tons of fun. The letter writer mentions dolphins and sharks in Vegas. Anything in Vegas that is contrary to typical behavior is there to attract people to visit and part with their money.

The original article provided some activities and places where people with kids can go to and be entertained and have fun sans the gambling scene.

If the kids’ activities listed in the article are not sufficient per the parent’s agenda, the letter writer’s advice to stay home should be followed. No one is twisting arms to force attendance in Sin City. BILL SPITALNICK Newport Beach
