Some fun beach bars
It's ratchet but that's part of the charm. |

Date: April 24th, 2018 9:59 AM Author: hateful voyeur I've been to both those hotels plus Golden Nugget, but that's like 5+ years ago. Has it gotten noticeably worse since then or is it about the same and still fun on weekends at the pools and the clubs? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958308&forum_id=2#35907638) |

Date: April 24th, 2018 10:09 AM Author: shivering odious stead sweet tailpipe Yeah, it's a fun Jersey/NY/Philly trash crowd but in a good way. A lot of casinos have shut down bc AC has so much competition now, but the aforementioned resorts are still really fun. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958308&forum_id=2#35907704) |

stay at the Borgata/Water Club, then hit beach bars during day and get Uber back to the confines of of the Borgota complex by nightfall. Be drunk all day. |

Date: April 24th, 2018 10:13 AM Author: naked charcoal range Summer in AC is ridiculously fun, especially the beach bars. Basically a bunch of chicks dancing around in bikinis while drunk on the beach.
However, AC is pretty dead between October-April. |

Date: April 24th, 2018 10:15 AM Author: naked charcoal range People love to diss AC, but I always have a blast during the summer. I wish they would fully commit to turning it into the entertainment capital of the east like how Vegas is out west. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958308&forum_id=2#35907748) |

Date: April 24th, 2018 10:18 AM Author: hateful voyeur Vegasmo here -- three things hold it back imo.
1. The weather is nowhere near as good and consistent for as long during the year as Las Vegas. Within a span of like 8 months I pretty much know what I'm getting weather-wise in Vegas.
2. Heavy NJ taxes
3. Lack of access to all the hot SoCal/AZ chicks |

Date: April 24th, 2018 10:20 AM Author: naked charcoal range They could easily change that. Transform Pacific Ave and Atlantic Ave and you now have a nice city. The state needs to invest for that to happen, though. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958308&forum_id=2#35907782) |

Date: April 24th, 2018 10:28 AM Author: shivering odious stead sweet tailpipe Yeah, just like the hundreds of millions invested into Newark, Trenton and particularly Camden, changed so much.
The problem is no one wants to live in a disgusting ghetto and so AC is never going to "happen". The casino interests don't care either, they're happy to consolidate and simply take their money to the bank.
With gambling now in center city Phila, Queens, Yonkers and CT, as well as online, AC's main draw is hurting. If you want a beach town, there's a shit ton in NJ that are far nicer without threatening ghetto thugs. |

I've been to all 3 within the past 3-4 years and it still looks like shit so where did this investment go? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958308&forum_id=2#35907833) |

Date: April 24th, 2018 10:29 AM Author: shivering odious stead sweet tailpipe Visit AC and compare the two. Different by miles. Also the only AC resort approaching one that's "vegas style" is Borgata, AC just isn't on the same level and never has been. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958308&forum_id=2#35907831) |
|
Date: April 24th, 2018 10:38 AM Author: hateful voyeur I don't disagree. You'd need to make major investments to AC and you'd have to have 6-8 really top quality hotel destinations.
That will never happen because it's not profitable enough, both because of taxes/competition and because the weather doesn't draw the young party crowd for nearly as long during the year as Vegas.
---------------------------------------------
The ghetto thing is a problem though. Look at pics of AC from before the war. Demographics really is destiny. |

Date: April 24th, 2018 10:41 AM Author: shivering odious stead sweet tailpipe AC used to be one of the top destinations on the east coast, and had incredibly beautiful hotels lining the boardwalk. Any remnant of that era is barely visible now. Interestingly, drive a few minutes south of AC into Margate/Longport and it resembles the Hamptons in both aesthetics and demographics.
