But ESPN zone might work too..

Every casino has a sports book (a place with TVs with sports and horse racing on). This is the best bang for your buck. Take $20, parlay some games, sit down and get free drinks for the next couple hours - if you're gambling, you get drinks!
Just tip the lil'waitress for better service.

Actually, most of the sports books give you drink vouchers and only if you bet a minimum of $200.

That's odd. All of my friends- Trek fans and non fans told me I had to go. Dragged a couple of other non-trek fans along with me, and they both agreed that it was a lot of fun.
So my Vegas list would be:
Spearmint Rhino
Star Trek
Spearmint Rhino

I went to Penn & Teller and thought it was great! Although being an owner of their TV series "BS" I am may be a bit bias. It a reasonably priced show and you can meet them after. I recommend.

Yup after every show. I got a picture with each of them. You could also bring something for them to sign, which I didn't do, but would have been a good idea. I'll let you in on a secret too. Teller talks!

"O" looks cool but awfully pricey for my taste. I think we may end up at Mystere instead. Also hoping to see Wayne Brady.
On a side note, today's US exchange rate sucks.
