I was at that game also. I thought it was 2002 but NU stopped UNLV on the goal line at the end of the game
I also remember a "fixe prix" dinner at the Bellagio for 4. My family dined on a couple of small portion plates, I was wondering where the entrée was, but the waiter informed me that we had completed the dinner. I was presented a bill for over $900(no alcohol either)
We stopped at the buffet afterwards-a choice I had vetoed before because of a short wait.
The other recollection from that trip was ,while at poolside, I marveled at the skill of plastic surgeons and the willingness of their patients to promote their work
