Stunned Las Vegas partiers went viral after sharing the extortionate drinks prices vendors are charging in Sin City amid its tanking tourism industry.
Drinks in the party hotspot are through the roof despite dwindling tourism numbers, with one horrified reveler sharing his shock at the prices in front of him at the Flamingo pool.
A bucket of six Coors lights was priced at a staggering $76.99, with 24 cold ones running up to $290.99 – a near 15 times markup from its usual $20 price.
‘I can keep going here,’ the partier who filmed his menu said as he listed off the pricey options.
Cases of Topo Chico or Truly hard seltzers, which typically cost around $30 to $35, were also sold for almost $300.
For drinkers who want a mixed cocktail, a large Bloody Mary would set them back $40 per drink.
And six shots, a total of just 9 fluid ounces, costs $99.99 in the party hub on the iconic Vegas strip.
Food options at the pool weren’t any more reasonable, with a chicken tender platter or a cheeseburger slider plate running up to $89.99.
‘Get ready to spend if you want to go to the Go Pool,’ the shocked partier added.

It comes after a shock new report to Las Vegas’s Convention and Visitors Authority warned that the number of airline passengers arriving at the city will continue to plummet in the coming months.
The tourism body was told in the report by Ailevon Pacific Aviation Consulting that capacity rates at the gambling hotspot’s Harry Reid International Airport are forecast to drop dramatically in the second half of 2025.
They warned the number of inbound passengers will plunge to around 95,000 seats per day for the rest of the year – a worrying prediction that represents a 2.3 percent fall from 2024 numbers.
The decline is largely being fueled by a sharp 18.5 percent drop-off in traffic from Canada, which typically comprises the largest share of international visitors to the Nevada city, per the Las Vegas Review Journal.
The loss of Canadian tourists has cancelled out gains from other continents, including a 31.7 percent increase in airline capacity from Asia and a 21.6 percent increase jump from Europe excluding the United Kingdom.
The shock report cemented a steep decline in tourism to Las Vegas, with previous statistics from April showing it was losing upwards of 300,000 visitors per month since the start of 2025.
The number of Canadian passengers flying to Las Vegas fell to an average of 2,412 per day this year, according to the report – blamed by some on the election of Donald Trump to the presidency in January and his subsequent jibes at Canada.

The loss in tourism in Las Vegas throughout 2025 was blamed by some on the election of Donald Trump to the presidency in January, as he has routinely antagonized Canadians,who made up most of the
Trump quickly launched a hostile attack on the country and threatened to make it America’s ’51st state’ if it did not submit to his tariff demands.
With Canadians making up a large part of all tourism to Sin City, Trump’s antagonism of its residents may have played a role.
As the downward trend was beginning to snowball in February, Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority President and CEO Steve Hill told the Journal that he was hearing from many angry Canadians about the president.
‘There’s an awful lot of the anecdotal conversation around Canadians being angry and upset about tariffs and talk around annexing the country,’ he said.
‘We’ve seen consumer confidence numbers drop pretty significantly over the past couple of months.’
In May, the World Travel & Tourism Council also reported that in its forecasts for 2025, the US was set to lose $12.5 billion in international visitor spending.

Las Vegas has seen a staggering decline in tourism this year, and a new report found that capacity at its major airport is expected to fall by around 95,000 plane seats a day in the second half of 2025
‘While other nations are rolling out the welcome mat, the U.S. government is putting up the ‘closed’ sign,’ Julia Simpson, the council’s president and CEO, said in a news release at the time.
Another reason for the recent drop in Las Vegas is due to a maintenance issue with Spirit Airlines, the second busiest carrier at Reid International Airport.
The maintenance issues have grounded 50 planes in Spirit’s fleet, which has significantly reduced its capacity, according to Ailevon Pacific Aviation Consulting senior director Joel Van Over.
‘They have an issue with their (jet) engines,’ Van Over said.
‘They have to pull that engine off the plane, fix the cracks, put it back on the plane, and that whole process takes about 300 days.
‘So obviously they can’t just do a plane a year because it would take them 100 years to get that done.’
