Lisa and Kris usually drive to their jobs on the Las Vegas Strip and park in the casino employee garage. But the Formula One Las Vegas Grand Prix setup forced them to find another way to get to work.
For the last few weeks, the two friends have been riding the Las Vegas Monorail to get to their jobs on the Strip. As locals, the $1 one-way ride is a good deal, too.
“Lived here all my life, and I rode the monorail for the first time,” said Lisa, a cocktail server at a center-Strip casino. “I got to tell ya, it’s not the worst way to get around.”
