The venerable Sahara may be cheaper now than in 1952, with room rates for the next three months hovering right around $25 a night, leaving you plenty of cash to go medium-pimping at their $3 blackjack tables. The hotel also boasts a 70mph roller coaster called "Speed", whose loops'll leave you so dizzy, you'll swear you saw that guy from Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
